Line of Gravity
|
Standard for the lower extremities
passes through 1. Anterior Superior iliac Spine 2. Bisects Knee 3. Bisects Ankle 4 through the second toe of foot |
|
|
Normal Foot Posture
|
Absence of pain; normal muscle balance; central heal; straight and mobile toes
|
|
|
There is an adequate (blank) of the (blank) on the foot while standing and during the support phase of gait.
|
distribution, weight bearing forces
|
|
|
Hindfoot
|
Talus and calcaneus
|
|
|
Midfoot
|
navicular, cuboid and cuneiforms
|
|
|
Forefoot
|
metatarsals and phalanges
|
|
|
Subtalar Joint
|
Hindfoot
supported five ligaments: anterior, posterior, medial, lateral and interosseous talocalcaneal Movements: gliding and rotation Performs pronation and supination Axis: oblique direction from posterolateral plantar to anteromedial dorsal aspect. |
|
|
Movement of the subtalar joint varies according to
|
Weight bearing: closed kenetic chain
Non-Weight bearing: open kenetic chain |
|
|
Subtalar joint is responsible for
|
conversion of the rotatory forces of the lower extremity
|
|
|
Hindfoot influences the function an movement of the
|
midfoot and forefoot.
|
|
|
Clinically subtalar joint supination and pronation are measured by the amount of calcaneal (blank) and (blank).
|
Inversion, eversion
|
|
|
Inversion to eversion ratio of
|
2:3 to 1:3; 20 degrees of inversion and 10 degrees of eversion.
|
|
|
Supination of Subtalar joint in closed plane of movement
|
Calcaneus: inversion-frontal plane
Talus: Horizontal abduction-horizontal plane Talus: Dorsiflexion-Sagittal plane |
|
|
Pronation of Subtalar joint in closed chain plane of movement
|
Calcaneus: Eversion-frontal plane
Talus: Adduction- Horizontal plane Talus: Plantarflexion- sagittal plane |
|
|
Supination of Subtalar joint in open chain plane of movement
|
Frontal Plane: Calcaneus-Inversion
Horizontal Plane: Calcaneus-Horizontal Adduction Sagittal Plane: Calcaneus-Plantarflexion |
|
|
Pronation of Subtalar joint in open chain plane of movement
|
Frontal Plane: Calcaneus-Eversion
Horizontal Plane: Calcaneus-abduction Sagittal Plane: Dorsiflexion |
|
|
Midfoot
|
Transtarsal Joint
|
Has oblique and logitudinal axis that move independently of each other.
Dependent on the subtalar joint. |
|
As the subtalar joint (blank), the transtarsal planes become parallel and the foot becomes flexible.
|
Pronates
|
|
|
As the subtalar joint moves from (blank) to (blank), the planes of the transtarsal joint converge medially and the foot becomes rigid and lever like.
|
pronation, supination
|
|
|
The midfoot (blank) movement from the rearfoot to the forefoot and promotes stability.
|
transmits
|
|
|
Forefoot
|
includes metatarsals and phalanges
|
|
|
What movement does the tarsometatarsal and intermetatarsal joints perform?
|
gliding
|
|
|
The Metatarsophalangeal joints do what movements?
|
flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, circumduction
|
|
|
The Interphalangeal joints do what movement?
|
flexion, extension
|
|
|
The midfoot (blank) to the ground as the terrain changes. Those changes are dependent upon the normal (blank) of the rear foot.
|
adapts, mechanics
|
|
|
What are the functions of the foot?
|
Support and Locomotion
