Goniometry
The average ROM for knee flexion
what is 0 - 145 degrees
The bones of the lower leg
what is femur, tibia, fibula, patella
causes the foot to plantarflex
what is gastronemeous?
An unhappy triad is comprised of these ligaments
what is medial meniscus, anterior crutiate ligament, medial collateral ligament
This location of the axis when testing knee extension/flexion
what is lateral epicondyle... femur
The tendons that attach to the patella
what is patellar and quadriceps tendon
The quadriceps are responsible for this movement
What is Knee extension (optional: Hip flexion)
The bursa can swell and become inflamed with overuse or repeated pressure is known as...
what is knee bursitis (will also except bursitis)
Patient position when measuring knee flexion ROM
What is supine
The Anterior cruciate ligament prevents the movement...
The Tibiofemoral joint is responsible for performing these anatomical movements
what is knee flexion and extension
The patella gets broken into several pieces is this kind of fx
what is a comminuted fx
When measuring knee extension, the stationary arm and the moving arm
what is...
Stationary Arm = femur/greater trocanter
moving arm = tibia/lateral malleolus
This Bursa is between the patella and skin
What is Prepatellar
The plane that knee flexion and extension occurs in
What is Sagittal plane
MOI: twisting of knee while foot is still planted on the ground
What is a meniscus tear
This joint is being assessed when performing flexion and extension
what is
These ligaments can be found within the intercondylar notch
What is anterior cruciate ligament and lateral collateral ligament (ACL and LCL)
This muscle's action is Knee Extension and abduction of the hips
What is Tensor fascia latea
These knee ligaments can be stretched or torn when the foot is planted and a sideways force directed at the knee.
What is Medial Collateral Ligament and Lateral Collateral Ligament (MCL and LCL)
