    Study Notes

    Hip Flexion and Mobility

    • Ascending stairs requires approximately 60-70 degrees of hip flexion.
    • Tying a shoe with the foot on the floor necessitates around 120 degrees of hip flexion.

    Rehabilitation Phase 1 Exercises

    • For a femoral shaft fracture treated with an intramedullary nail, initial rehabilitation emphasizes isometric quadriceps and gluteal exercises.
    • For open tibial shaft fractures during Phase 1, suggested exercise includes non-weight bearing ankle pumps to maintain circulation.

    Discharge and Recovery Criteria

    • Discharge criteria for upper femur fractures include the ability to perform safe transfers, adequate pain control, and independent mobility with assistive devices.
    • Days 3-7 after upper femur fractures should focus on bed mobility and gentle range of motion exercises.

    Post-Fracture Recommendations

    • 1-2 weeks following a femoral shaft fracture treated with an intramedullary nail, gentle active range of motion of the hip and knee can be initiated.
    • The primary goal of treating lower extremity injuries is to restore functional mobility.

    Rehabilitation Phases Overview

    • Rehabilitation Phase 2 emphasizes strengthening, endurance exercises, and progressive weight-bearing activities.
    • During the final rehabilitation phase, focus shifts to full weight-bearing, agility, endurance training, and reintegration into daily activities.

    Fracture Types and Classification

    • A subtrochanteric fracture involving the lesser trochanter indicates a more complex fracture pattern with a significant detachment.
    • Trochanteric fractures can be classified into basic types; those between the greater and lesser trochanters are a distinct category.

    Hip Joint Anatomy and Testing

    • The ligament that elongates the most in the close-packed position of the hip joint is the iliofemoral ligament.
    • The normal center-edge angle in the frontal plane of the hip joint is between 25-39 degrees, significant for assessing hip stability.
    • The acetabular anteversion angle indicates the orientation of the acetabulum and influences hip joint biomechanics.
    • The angle of inclination typically ranges from 125-135 degrees, representing the relationship between the femoral neck and shaft.

    Capsular Pattern and Weight-Bearing Status

    • The close-packed position of the hip joint is characterized by a capsular pattern of limited flexion, abduction, and internal rotation.
    • During Phase 1 of intramedullary nailing rehabilitation for open tibial shaft fractures, weight-bearing is typically non-weight bearing.

    Exercise Recommendations for Tibial Shaft Fractures

    • For tibial shaft fractures treated with biplanar Ilizarov external fixation, retro walking on a treadmill serves to promote balance and coordination.
    • Addressing contractures during Phase 2 of rehabilitation may involve targeted stretching during physical therapy.
    • Functional activities and return to sports can commence approximately 3 months post-injury for intramedullary nailing cases.
    • During Phase 1 of stable tibial plateau fracture rehabilitation after internal fixation, recommended exercises include isometric exercises and gentle range of motion activities.

    Stair Climbing and Rehabilitation Protocols

    • The recommended order for stair climbing during Phase 3 involves progressing from step ascent to descent, beginning with ascending leading with the stronger leg.
    • Full weight-bearing is typically permitted as rehabilitation progresses into later stages once adequate healing is evidenced.
    • In the late stages of rehabilitation (6-8 weeks), more challenging exercises can involve gradual impact activities depending on clinical assessment.

    Activity Considerations

    • Certain exercises may be contraindicated during Phase 2 for a stable tibial plateau fracture after internal fixation, particularly high-impact or twisting motions.
    • Injuries not associated with lateral knee force might include certain types of medial collateral ligament injuries.
