Grade 3:
complete tear or rupture of ATF Often CF *subluxation of the proximal tibiofibular joint (complaint of pain distal and lateral to knee joint) Brostrom reconstruction: anatomic repair suturing ATF, CF, imbrication lax ligaments, reinforced by advanced lateral portion of extensor retinaculum For someone whose Ankle “goes out” frequently (lack lateral stability) Don't do inversion Protected weight bearing 3-4 weeks Dr. Kinect (connect? Kineqt) is ankle guy here protected weight bearing 3-4 weeks * imbrication = surgical pleating and folding of tissue to realign organs and provide extra support |

Achilles Tendinopathy
cook et al. Manual Therapy 2002 |
Histopathology
Tendons: respond poorly to overuse, healing slow, incomplete, lacks extracellular organization Acute tendons heal with a standard triphasic response; inflammation, proliferation, and maturation But, poorly vascularized and doesn't always follow nice pattern Tendon disruption may fail to stimulate adequate inflammatory response MICROSCOPICALLY: large increase in ground substance > greater proportion of large proteoglycans than found in normal tendon Leads to Increased number of tendon cells Immigration of fibroblasts from peritendon Increased organelles responsible for protein synthesis Large amounts of ground substance, inferior collagen, and vascularity are randomly arranged and lack organization, making the tendon less load tolerant Lots of type III, and doesn't really get to type I Exercise may offer a stimulant to improving the organization of these components - Profound effect on collagen (prevent tissue from staying in early phase) |

|
Why is palpation tenderness not a clinically useful tool for symptoms in the patella tendon (tendonopathy?)
|
Palpation tenderness is not a clinically useful tool as small amounts of pressure provoke pain in tendons
Palpation tenderness has been shown not to correlate with imaging changes or symptoms in the patella tendon |
|
Rx tendinopthay
|
Musculotendinous strengthening…essential
Strongly biased toward eccentric Exercise appears to be the only stimulus described to date that positively influences collagen alignment Rest (previous inflammatory paradigm) will reduce pain, no improvement in musculotendinous function.

Pathomechanics
Abnormal movement or muscle deficiency at the hip has effects on big picture. Spine, knees, ankles.. proximal or distal effect. Genu valgus, Q-angle, hyperpronation (pronated limb is shorter - correct with orthotic and strengthening). Lots of reasons for coming in with lateral tracking and diffuse knee pain (some people interpret it as patellar motion, others as femur internal rotation). Lots of treatment options – strengthening, stretching, bracing... Looking at biomechanics – walking lunge, forward step down, fast walking |
|
Soft Tissue considerations at hip
|
Decreased Flexibility – pelvic region has decreased ability to transmit forces and work efficiently
extensors / flexors (tight iliopsoas pulls on spine) Muscle Weakness Hip abductor, extensor, ER Could come in with posterior tib tendonitis, or various other things – could be from faulty positioning because of weakness Muscle Imbalances Short TFL / Glut max (insert on IT band) Weak Glut medius/dominance TFL Dominance two-joint hip flexor Weak glut/dominance hamstring Asymmetrical leg length Anteversion->IR femur->genu valgum & pes planus Picture of anteversion, pes planus |

Studies on the effects of mobilization on hip muscle torque
|
Effect of grade IV inferior hip joint mobilization on hip abductor torque. Compared with grade I inferior hip joint mobilization, grade IV inferior hip joint mobilization showed a statistically significant increase in hip abductor torque and was consistent with other studies demonstrating that the use of a grade IV non-thrust mobilization improves strength immediately post intervention in healthy individuals.
Usefulness of posterioranterior (P-A) hip joint mobilization in improving strength of the gluteus maximus muscle. control group received Grade I P-A mobilization and experimental group received Grade IV P-A mobilization. Statistically significant difference between the hip extensor torque of the two groups with a 14% increase in strength for the experimental group and only a 4% increase in strength for the control group. |

Along with PF joint is intra-articular
Biaxial Modified hinge Medial & Lateral meniscus Anterior/lateral stability by cruciates Medial/lateral stability by MCL and LCL (pcl?) 2 asymmetrical condyles-medial longer-distal femur (1.7cm) Medial tibial plateau larger than lateral |
|
Knee Menisci
|
Improve congruency
Connected to tibial condyles by coronary ligaments, to each other by transverse lig Med meniscus attached to joint capsule and MCL, anterior and posterior cruciate lig, and semimembranosus muscle (more efficiency/capability, more vulnerable to damage) Lateral meniscus attach to PCL and tendon of popliteus through capsular connection. Kisner and Colby Lateral meniscus has greater mobility because it does not attach to the LCL and capsular attachment interrupted by passage of popliteus tendon Orthopaedic Examination Dutton Meniscus has vasculature. Careful with post-op flexion (none beyond 90 for # of weeks – prevent torque) |
|
Arthrokinematics of the knee in open and closed kinetic chain
|
OKC: concave plateaus slide in the same direction as the bone motion. TKE results in tibia externally rotating on the femur; with flexion tibia rotates internally
CKC: motion of femur on fixed, convex condyles slide in the direction opposite bone direction |
|
Screw-home mechanism
|
Tibia fixed, weight bearing, TKE results in femur rotating internally > medial condyle slides farther posterior than lateral. As knee is unlocked the femur rotates laterally
|
|
Patellofemoral Joint
|
Sesmoid bone in quadriceps tendon-patella
Articulates with intercondylar trochlear groove on the anterior aspect of the distal portion of the femur (narrow groove/notch may contribute to incidence of ACL injury in females) Articulating surface covered with smooth hyaline cartilage (thickest in body – 7 mm?) Embedded in anterior capsule and connected to tibia by ligamentum patella Retinacula: lateral superficial and deep (deep to IT and comes in with biceps femoris tendon) Accessory motion > superior with extension (inferior with flexion) May contribute to decreased ROM and extensor lag |
|
Patellar Function
Compressive forces??? Surgery???? |
Increase the moment arm of the quadriceps tendon
redirects forces exerted by the quadriceps (of picture of alta, Mahon says→ “it's like riddin' high big time” → ) Compressive forces??? Between 60* knee flexion to full flexion Inferior part of patella engaging in groove Surgery???? Look for common impairments: Quad lag – lacking active knee extension Lack full knee flexion Weak quad and hamstring |
|
Joint capsule and synovium of knee
|
Ascends anteriorly ~ two fingerbreadths above the patella to form suprapatellar pouch
Inferiorly attaches along edge of the tibial plateau, with exception of intercondylar eminence Synovial membrane lines inner portion of knee joint/capsule excludes cruciate ligaments from inner portion of knee joint Thus cruciates extrasynovial yet intra-articular |
|
Considerations for patellar tracking?
Malalignment and tracking considerations |
Quad
Patella tendon Boney restraints of trochlear groove (shallow groove leads to lateral tracking?) Passive Dynamic Don't laterally glide patella! Could Do medial, anterior, superior Q-angle: male 12*, female 16* Malalignment and tracking considerations Increased Q-angle Muscle and fascial tightness: Tight IT band and lat retinaculum Tight ankle PF Medial tibial torsion Rectus femoris Hip muscle weakness Lax medial capsule or insufficient VMO With lateral tracking, get bone on bone action theoretically (patellar facets and groove) |
|
Patella contact and compressive forces
|
Contact:
Full knee extension superior to trochlear groove 15˚ flexion inf border articulates w/ superior aspect groove (contact) >90˚ quad tendon in trochlea groove Compressive forces: Joint reaction force increases between 30-60˚ Squat inc til 90˚ OKC jt reaction force ~ 30˚ w/ free wt at ankle OKC (open kinetic chain) peak compression at 75˚ w/ variable resistance |
|
Muscle function- quads
|
Closed-chain function: Quadriceps - extension
Patella: Increase distance of the quadriceps tendon from the knee joint axis (do quad set for patellar mobility with immobilized leg) Torque: peak between 70˚ and 50˚ standing: knee extension Greatest 60-30˚ |
|
Muscle function at knee

Hamstring-2 joint -> contract more efficiently when lengthened over the hip
Gastrocnemius-function as knee flexor, but 1˚ function is to support posterior capsule Popliteus-support posterior capsule unlock knee Popliteus trigger-point Pes anserine-medial stability and rotation of tibia CKC |
|
Manual techniques for knee

Principles of ACL Rehabilitation
|
Principles of ACL Rehabilitation
Full passive knee extension (prevent arthrofibrosis) Restore patellar mobility (quad's on vacation, may do functional stim if mobility is lost.) Reduce postoperative inflammation (swelling leads to muscle inhibition) -WBAT, w/ 2 crutches, brace locked (don't be too eager to get off crutches – bad mechanics) -increase pain and swelling and concomitant Full ROM by 4-6 weeks (0-90* at 5-7 days, 0-110? later) Re-establish voluntary quadriceps Restore neuromuscular control – front step-downs, lateral step-downs, single front step down – strong correlation between functional outcome (dr. Mahon likes lateral step down) Plyometrics Gradual increase applied loads MCL injuries are managed nonoperatively more often than ACL, PCL, or LCL injuries Imposing controlled loads on the knee while protecting the graft from excessive stresses Do neuromuscular reeducation toward the end after they're fatigued |
|
TKA
|
Cementless fixation WBAT to TTWB (toe-touch) Can get aggressive (non cemented has porous coat and bone infiltrates it. Younger people might have non-cemented)
SLR supine and prone be careful with side ABD for several weeks (varus/valgus stress) High impact per surgeon |

How does Early High-Intensity Rehabilitation Following TKA affect outcomes according to
Bade and Stevens-Lapsley JOSPT Dec 2011? Differences in the groups? |
According to Bade and Stevens-Lapsley, how much does quad strength drop 1 month post TKA?
60% That's pretty profound. Wants to become knee flexion contracture because they can't do quad set. What was the criteria to decrease the intensity level of the subsequent session? C/o decreased walking endurance Soreness 2 hours or greater Decreased ROM by 5* or more (take note and think about whether it was from your PT or them at home) Increased knee jt swelling 2 cm or more Increase resting numerical verbal pain 2 points or more Differences in the groups?

Muscles stabilize and control scapula
Facilitates congruency in glenohumeral ball and socket (anatomically unstable joint) effective length-tension relationship-stable base for RTC (paramount for optimal function) stabilize and move humerus/elevate acromion force transfer Drives rehab – bursitis could be due to excessive scapular mobility |
|
Muscle actions:
Upper and lower trapezius and serratus anterior -> Serratus anterior -> Rhomboids -> |
Upper and lower trapezius and serratus anterior -> upwardly rotate scapula with elevation
Serratus anterior -> protracts the scapula on the thorax to align scapula during flexion or pushing Rhomboids -> downwardly rotate and retract scapula in synchrony with lats, teres major, and RTC Stabilize scapula through balance of forces |
|
Faulty posture - slouching

Increased kyphosis decreases posterior tilting and ER of the scapula during
Elevation of the arm (leads to quicker subacromial impingement) Muscle length and strength imbalances occur in scapular and humeral mm Alter mechanics of GH joint (tight pec minor – prevents posterior tilt by pulling on coracoid. Stretch weakness and shortened weakness on opposite sides) Forward tilt > decreased flexibility of the pect minor, levator scapula, and scalenus Muscles and weakness in serratus anterior and trapezius Humerus is abducted and IR GH IR less flexible; ER weaken Solem-Bertoft et al, 1993 The anterior aspect of the subacromial space narrowed as the shoulder moved from a retracted position to a protracted position Upper and lower trapezius and serratus anterior |

scapula with humerus allows for 150-180˚ flexion or abduction 2:1 ratio > 2˚glenohumeral:1˚ scapular Scapular motion > upward rotation, posterior tilt, scapula ER During humeral elevation synchronous motion of scapula allows for Effective length-tension relationship AND congruency humeral head & fossa Upper and lower trap and serratus cause upward rotation scapula Weakness or paralysis, results in scapula downward rotated. Deltoid and supraspinatus reach active insufficiency-cannot elevate arm During elevation pect minor is lengthened as scapular upwardly rotates Restricted scapular movement from shortened pect minor, results in impingement |
|
Clavicular Elevation with Rotation with Humeral Motion
|
First 30˚ of upward rotation of scapula occurs with
elevation of the clavicle at the SC joint coracoclavicular ligament becomes taut clavicle rotates 38˚ to 55˚ about longitudinal axis allows the scapula to rotate an additional 30˚ @ AC jt |
|
External Rotation of the Humerus with Elevation
|
External Rotation of the Humerus with Elevation
During elevation of the arm, humerus externally rotates allows greater tubercle of humerus to clear coracoacromial arch Shoulder replacement patients have limited ER, so limited elevation In vivo study of elevation flexion, scapular plane, and abduction Demonstrated 55˚ ER in all planes. During abduction ER occurred Up to 125˚ followed by some IR, forward flexion ER occurred until 50˚ then plateaued. ER occurred again from 110˚ to 160˚. During Elevation in the scapular plane ER occurred throughout. Stokdiijk, et al. Clin Biomech 2003 |

Deltoid- Rotator Cuff and Supraspinatus Mechanisms
|
Deltoid force/vector causes upward translation of humerus (impingement) (don't strengthen deltoid after shoulder replacement – work on infraspinatus, teres minor, supraspinatus, etc. for stability/control of head of humerus)
infraspinatus, teres minor, subscapularis produce stabilizing compression and downward translation of the humerus in the glenoid deltoid & three rotators result in balance of forces that elevate humerus and control humeral head supraspinatus > stabilizing compressive force & slight upward translation during arm elevation |

Management of Shoulder Disorders and Surgeries
Joint hypomobility: non opperative management |
Glenohumeral Joint
Related pathologies and etiology of symptoms: RA & OA Traumatic arthritis Postimmobilization arthritis or stiff shoulder Idiopathic frozen shoulder/adhesive capsulitis Clinical signs and symptoms arthritis: Acute: pain, muscle guarding, limited-usually ER and abduction. Pain radiating below elbow, may disturb sleep Subacute: capsular tightness consistent with capsular pattern (ER, abduction) pain at end range of motion, limited joint play Chronic: progressive capsular restriction, magnifies limited motion capsular pattern. Significant loss of motion, ache localized to deltoid region |

Management of Shoulder Disorders and Surgeries
Idiopathic Frozen Shoulder |
Adhesive capsulitis
STAGE I: gradual onset of pain, increases w/ movement, present at night. Loss of ER with intact RTC strength. Duration < 3 months. Not seeing atrophy, but diffuse pain STAGE II: “freezing stage” persistent and more intense pain, particularly @ rest. Motions restricted all directions. Cannot be restored with an injection. Between 3 and 9 months STAGE III: “Frozen stage” pain only with movement, significant adhesions, limited GH motions, atrophy deltoid, RTC, triceps. Between 9 and 15 months. Not in pain anymore, but can't move STAGE IV: “Thawing stage” minimal pain, no synovitis, significant capsular restrictions from adhesions. Between 15 to 24 months Management guidelines are progressed based on continuum of stages and are the same As for acute-max protection stages 1 & 2, subacute-controlled motion stage 3, chronic-return to function stage 4 |

Frozen shoulder
Common structural and functional impairments: Functional Limitations |
Common structural and functional impairments:
Night pain and disturbed sleep during acute flares Pain w/motion often @ rest during acute flares Mobility: decreased joint play & ROM > usually ER-abduction; some IR-flexion Functional Limitations Inability to reach overhead, behind the head, out to the side, and behind the back. Thus difficult dressing, fastening behind back, reach back pocket, reach out of car window, self-grooming, and eating Difficulty lifting weighted objects Limited ability to sustain repetitive activities Faulty posture: protracted and anterior tilted scapula Decreased arm swing during gait Muscle performance: general weakness and poor endurance GH muscles With overuse of the scapular muscles -> pain upper trapezius, levator, post cervicals Substitution for limited GH motion w/ increased scapular motion, especially elevation |

GH joint Hypomobility:
Management-Protection phase Know this |
Control pain, edema, muscle guarding;
immobilize to provide rest, decrease pain intermittent periods passive, assisted motion within pain free/protected ROM & gentle oscillations gentle soft tissue mob Trying to stay pain-free with this person Maintain soft tissue and joint integrity and mobility if increased pain or irritability>dosage too strong or technique should be modified. If restrictions stretch after inflammation subsides PROM pain free all planes > avoid faulty posture Passive jt distraction grade I and II Pendulums Gentle muscle isometrics/setting stimulate Blood flow Maintain integrity and function Education, elevate for edema, cervical ROM Let them know that they shouldn't push in to pain (to unload the dishwasher, etc) – repetitive microtrauma irritates tendon. Like after you bite your cheek it's easier to bite your cheek again – quit hurting yourself so it can heal! Work capsule and scap stabilizers first (instead of full anatomical movements) Know this |

Glenohumeral Arthroplasty
Total shoulder Arthroplasty TSA Hemiarthroplasty-humeral head replaced Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty rTSA (more significant now days – proximal part convex, head of humerus concave. Rotator cuff pretty much trashed – mechanics are changed and now deltoid elevates the arm) Indications Pain – this is why they get surgery Loss of mobility |

Procedures |
Glenohumeral Arthroplasty
Procedures Late stage OA -> TSA or hemiarthroplasty…RTC intact. Unconstrained TSA > replace glenoid component and humeral surface replaced rTSA > reverses the ball and socket. Glenoid fossa is replaced with a convex Glenospherical component and humeral head with stemmed cup. Semiconstrained TSA if RTC can be repaired and function improved Hemiarthroplasty > articular surface and underlying bone of humerus have deteriorated, but glenoid fossa intact Doctor will write max amount of ER/IR, etc. Range of motion may be limited by hardware – providing stability SEMICONSTRAINED: bone grafting at glenoid Provides deeper cavity (like the labrum) |
