|
| Answer |
|
|
| ACL |
Anterior Cruciate Ligament/primary stablizer of the knee joint/ limits hyperextension on the knee |
| Menisci |
fibrocartilage disc that protect the femur from rubbing on the tibia |
| Lachmans test |
test for ACL disruption |
| Posterior cruciate ligament |
prevents posterior movement of the tibia in relation to the femur |
| posterior drawer test |
draw tibia posterior, mushy end feel +test for pcl damage= |
| MCL |
resists valgus stress to the knee - enhances medial stability |
| terrible triad |
ACL, MCL, MM |
| Valgus stress test |
for MCL Stability |
| Pes Anserene tendons |
SGT - sartorious, Gracillis, Semitendinosis |
| Varus Stress Test |
for lateral collateral ligament |
| Patellofemoral Syndrome |
Anterior pain that is worse when extending the knee, up/down stairs, incorrect patellar tracking during extension |
| Chondromalacia |
softening of cartilage |
| patellofemoral compression test |
test for chondromalacia |
| clarkes sign |
test for chondromalacia, contract of quads |
| IT band friction syndrome |
Overuse condition that causes lateral knee pain |
| Muscles that attach to IT band |
Glute Max, TFL |
| Muscle that causes similar pain as IT band syndrome |
Vastus Lateralis |
| Ober Test |
Tests tightness in IT Band |
| Noble Compression test |
Test for ITband friction syndrome |
| Function of Meniscus |
Shock Absorber |
| Meniscal injury caused by |
compressive force |
| Apley Compression test |
test for meniscal damage |
| Apley distraction test |
positive for ligament injury, client prone, traction tibia |
| Patellar tendinosis |
Jumpers knee |
| Chronic loading on the patellar |
Jumpers knee-patellar tendinosis |
| Hamstring muscles |
Biceps femoris, Semitendinosis, semimembranosis |
| Where do strains occur most frequent? |
At the point of insertion |
| Genum Valgum (valgus) |
knock knee (lateral deviation of the distal tibia) |
| Genum Varum (varus) |
Bow legged (medial deviation of the distal tibia |
| Genum recurvatum |
locked knees |
| prepatellar bursitis |
inflamation of the bursa below the patella |
Poultry
