PT considerations
100

This prosthesis problem related to length of prosthesis causes lateral bending during gait?

what is prosthesis is too short

100

This amputee problem regarding activation of prosthesis for gait would cause circumducted gait and forward trunk flexion?

what is inability to initiate prosthetic knee flexion

100

This issue resulted when the patient noticed her prosthetic leg was longer during gait than in static standing prior to ambulating causing abducted gait, vaulting and forward trunk flexion?

what is poor/inadequate suspension

100

These two types of suspension are most likely to be used with an ischial containment socket

what is suction or lanyard

100

these positions are necessary for TF patient who can flex their knee to transfer into for practicing fall recovery?

what is sitting up into long sitting, quadruped and tall kneeling

200

This prosthetic cause regarding length of prosthesis causes ABD gait, circumducted gait & valuting?

what is prosthesis too long

200

what amputee weakness would cause ABD gait?

weak hip flexors & adductors

200

Upon gait analysis, the TF patient demonstrated weakness in their quads as well as poor balance causing this gait deviation during stance phase

what is excessive knee flexion

200

This type of suction can be donned in sitting and virtually eliminates pistoning while also requiring a pump after donning

what is elevated vacuum

200

This UE prosthesis type requires proximal muscle activation for control of prosthesis with the risk of neck injury due to donning/doffing 

what is body-powered prosthesis

300

This prosthetic issue related to dimension of socket would cause lateral bending & ABD gait?

what is high medial wall

300

This amputee contracture causes lateral bending deviation, ABD gait and circumducted gait

What is ABD contracture

300

These problems are possible gait deviations from a patient who reports pain during ambulation

what is all of the gait deviations except medial or lateral whip

300

This suspension type likely used for pediatric amputees requires sufficient dexterity to don/doff while also not providing knee stability during gait

what is a sleeve suspension

300

This intervention is important for amputees to maintain mobility and stability for adequate transfers

what is upper body strength and core strength

400

This prosthetic problems related to the socket would cause forward trunk flexion during gait?

what is socket too big and poor suspension

400

What amputee cause regarding length of RL would cause lateral bending?

short RL

400

This issue results as audible feedback while the patient ambulates due to poor suspension

what is pistoning

400

these two suspension types are indicated for a TT patient with a sensitive RL

what is suction and locking liner suspensions

400

This milestone is beneficial for pediatric patients with transverse limb deficiency to receive initial prosthesis

what is standing supported at 9-10 months

500

This prosthetic cause related to ankle position causes circumducted gait and vaulting?

what is excessive ankle PF

500

This amputee weakness would cause lateral bending during gait? on sound side or prosthetic side?

what is weak hip ABD on prosthetic side

500

This type of foot is likely used for a patient that demonstrates lower level ambulation as well as inadequate knee stability and less control with forward advancement during gait?

what is single axis foot
500

This liner type evenly distributes weight in socket, moves with the pt and assists in improving circulation however is expensive

what is gel liner

500

This UE device is best used for light/moderate loads such as grocery carrying and holding utensils due to fixed tension of grip strength via bands

what is voluntary open (VO) terminal device
