Q

How does the arch move during the gait cycle ?

A

During most of the stance phase the arch lowers slightly
by late stance, the arch rises as the subtalar joint supinates

Q

How does the windlass mechanism work and what happens if it is not working properly ?

A

as the toes extend during PF; the plantar fascia becomes taut and adds stability to medial longitudinal arch

loss of PF ROM even with maximal muscular effort.

Q

How does fibularis longus help to raise the transverse arch of the foot ?

A

by providing dynamic stabilization through the muscles course;

balancing muscular force, slight supination of rear foot in conjuction with TP as the heel rises.

“functional sling”

Q

How will a tight gastroc affect the knee and ankle ?

A

less knee extension may impact gastroc length tension relationship

tight gastroc will limit dorsiflexion of ankle needed for PF

23
Q

What is special TP as it pertains to the gait cycle ?

A

resists pronation and assists w/ supination; decelerate pronation by eccentrically contracting

24
Q

What action do the plantar flexors have if the foot is fixed to the ground ?

A

-soleus may help prevent subtle postural sway
- gastroc is more suited for explosive PF
- both PF the talocrural joint

  • support of medial longitudinal arch
  • keep foot balanced between eversion and inversion
25
Q

What similarities do you see between the intrinsics of the hand and foot ?

A

FDS and FDP schema
interossei actions
pathology similarities

26
Q

Explain how foot pronation could affect joints up the rest of the leg? Supination ?

A

pronation: could lead to IR and knee valgus; patellofemoral pain syndrome

supination: tibial ER, knee varus

generalized muscle fatigue
painful overuse syndrome

27
Q

Explain how the following conditions affect the ankle and foot during walking: pes cavus and planus

A

cavus: less contacting surface; callous formation on metatarsal heads; cannot absorb impact of running and walking

planus: exaggerated valgus posture; cannot dissipate load through foot; inccreased muscular activity during quiet standing; pain, bone spurs, plantar fasciitis

28
Q

How does pes planus differ from AAFFD ?

A

AAFFD results mainly from TP and strain related injuries; and is acquired

Pes planus has more to do with lax plantar fascia and can be present early in life

29
Q

Explain the pathomechanics of PT tendon dysfunction.

A

TP is active during most of the gait cycle and can therefore become tired
-arch lowers
- progressive inflammation becomes incapacitating
- muscle weakness, poor gait mechanics, hindfoot eversion and pronation

30
Q

Explain plantar fasciitis to a patient.

A

pain along the sole of the foot.
caused by increase pronation and supination, poor footwear, obesity, weak intrinsics

31
Q

How does a hallux valgus develop ?

A

develops due to possible rupture of MCL and altered line of pull of muscles that normally abduct hallux

32
Q

What happens with an injury to this nerve: deep fibular

A

drop foot orr pes equinus ( PF contracture)
paralysis of dorsiflexors
PF contractures develop
adaptive shortening of achilles tendon

33
Q

What happens with an injury to this nerve: superficial fibular nerve

A

paralysis of fibularis longus and brevis; pes varus ( inverted foot )

34
Q

What happens with an injury to this nerve: common fibular nerve

A

mixed deep and superficial signs ( pes equinovarus )

35
Q

What happens with an injury to this nerve: tibial nerve

A

loss of PF torque
pes calcaneus ( fixed dorsiflexion posture )
pes valgus ( pronation deformity )
pes calcaneovalgus

“clawing” of toes
MTP hyperextension, flexion of IP joints

36
Q

Compare and contrast the mechanism of injury and structures damaged during: high ankle sprain and inversion ankle sprain

A

high ankle: extreme DF splays mortoise causing injury to multiple ligaments, can also be due to closed chain abduction and ER torque to talus, IR on fixed foot

inversion: full PF= OPP for TCJ
slackens ligaments
unstable
increased likelihood of inversion sprains

37
Q

Why are patients with an ankle sprain more likely to incur reccuring sprains and what can therapists due to help ?

A

mechanical restrictions like anterior laxity of talus in mortoise; degenerative changes but also possible mechanoreceptor dysfunction

address joint instability, fibularis muscle strengthening, single and double limb whole body balance.
