Study Notes
Knee Degrees of Motion
- Knee flexion occurs up to 135 degrees, facilitated by the hamstrings, with a soft end feel.
- Knee extension occurs up to 0 degrees, facilitated by the quadriceps, with a firm end feel.
Ankle Degrees of Motion
- Ankle dorsiflexion occurs up to 20 degrees.
- Ankle plantarflexion occurs up to 50 degrees.
- Tarsal joint inversion occurs up to 35 degrees.
- Subtalar joint inversion occurs up to 5 degrees.
- Tarsal joint eversion occurs up to 20 degrees.
- Subtalar joint eversion occurs up to 5 degrees.
Hip Degrees of Motion
- Hip flexion occurs up to 120 degrees, facilitated by the iliopsoas muscle (iliacus), with a soft end feel.
- Hip extension occurs up to 20 degrees, facilitated by the gluteus maximus.
- Hip abduction occurs up to 45 degrees, facilitated by the gluteus medius.
- Hip adduction occurs up to 20 degrees, facilitated by the adductor magnus.
- Seated internal rotation occurs up to 45 degrees, facilitated by the tensor fasciae latae (TFL).
- Prone internal rotation occurs up to 45 degrees.
- Seated external rotation occurs up to 45 degrees, facilitated by the piriformis.
