Knee connections
-Medial & Lateral mensici (cushion tibia and femur)
-Cruciate ligament (crisscross within knee)
-Collateral ligaments (connect at both sides, medial and lateral stability)
Bony promineces on side of ankle
Medical and lateral malleolus
Decreased height in aging
-After 40, loss of bone matrix
-Long bones do not shorten
-shortening of vertebral column
-40 in men, 43 in women, significant at 60
-Greater in 70s/80s due to osteoporotic collapse of vertebrae
Rheumatoid Arthritis
-Inflammation of synovial membrane, leads to fibrosis
-Symmetrical, bilateral
-heat, redness, swelling
-Pain in morning
-Mvmt decreases pain
-crepitation (roughened joints)
-Subcutaneous nodules
Osteoarthritis
-Noninflammatory
-Deterioration of articular cartilages
-Asymmetrical join involvement
-Nearly all older than 60 (more common than RA)
Subluxation
Two bones in a joint stay in contact but their alignment is off
Contracture
shortening of muscle leading to limited ROM
Ankylosis
Stiffness or fixation of joint
Articular disease
-inside joint capsule (arthritis)
-swelling/tenderness around whole joint, limits ROM in both active and passive
Extra-articular disease
-injury
-swelling and tenderness to one spot in joint
-Only certain ROM, active motion
Muscle testing grades
5: Full ROM against gravity, full resistance
4:Full ROM, some resistance
3: Full ROM (but not against resistance)
2: Full ROM in passive motion
1: Slight contraction
0: No contraction
Thenar eminence
rounded mound proximal to thumb
Phalen test
-Hands back to back while flexing wrists at 90 degrees for 60 seconds.
-Carpal tunnel produces numbness and burning
Tinel Sign
-Percussion on median nerve in the wrist
-Produces burning and tingling with carpal tunnel
Genu Varum
-bowlegs
-Normal for 1 year after begins walking
Genu valgum
-knock knees
-Normal b/w 2 & 3.5 years
Bulge Sign
-Confirms presence of small amount of fluid in suprapatellar pouch.
-Firmly stroke up on the medial aspect of the knee to displace fluid, tap the lateral aspect, watch for bulge from fluid wave on medial side.
Ballottement of the Patella
-For large amounts of fluid
-Compress the suprapatellar pouch to move fluid into knee joint, push the patella against the femur, if fluid present you hear a tap as the patella bumps onto the femoral condyles.
-No fluid: patella is already snug against femur.
McMurray Test
-History of trauma followed by locking, giving way or local pain
-Positive = hear or feel a click = torn meniscus in knee
-Flex knee and hip, rotate leg in and out, externally rotate the leg and put inward stress on knee, then slowly extend.
Lasegue Test (Straight Leg Raising)
If lifting affected leg reproduces sciatic pain, it confirms the presence of a herniated nucleus pulposus.
Ortolani maneuver
-Check infant hips for congential dislocation
-Every visit till infant is 1 years old
-Flex knees, abduct legs so lateral sides touch table.
-Positive sign if feel clunk
Allis test
-Infant hip dislocation
-Feet flat on table, flex knees, check knees at same elevation.
-Positive = one significantly lower
Tophi
-collections of sodium urate crystals due to chronic gout
-swelling and joint deformity
Gout
-Metalbolic disorder of disturbed purine metabolism
-elevated uric acid in serum
Spina bifida
-incomplete closure of vertebae results in neural tube defect
-Ranges from skin defect on spine to protrusion of the meningial sac
-Heberden nodes
