Study Notes

Ligament Injuries: Types, Biomechanics, and Treatment Protocols

Ligament injuries can result in joint instability, dislocation, and injury.
Ligaments have different types, including isometric and anisometric, that provide mobility guidance and maintain stability throughout the range of motion.
Biomechanically, ligament injuries represent a failure of the elastic properties, leading to joint instability.
Ligament sprain is an acute injury caused by external forces, such as pulling and shearing forces, which result in plastic deformation.
The severity of ligament sprain is classified into three grades based on physical examination findings, impairment, and pathophysiology.
Treatment protocols for ligament injuries involve three phases, including maximal protection, moderate protection, and minimal protection, aimed at reducing swelling, restoring range of motion, strength, flexibility, and stability, and returning to activities that require turning or twisting the joint.
Joint dislocation or luxation can result from congenital factors, trauma, or repeated sprains.
Complications of joint dislocation include tearing of muscles, ligaments, and tendons, nerve or blood vessel damage, and susceptibility to reinjury or infection.
Physical therapy protocols for joint dislocation involve maximal protection, aimed at controlling pain and edema, moderate protection, aimed at increasing dynamic stability, strength, and maintaining full motion, and minimal protection, aimed at increasing neuromuscular control, overall strength, and dynamic stability.
Therapeutic interventions for ligament injuries and joint dislocation include rest, compression, pain control, isometric and isotonic exercises, proprioception, mechanical stimulus, stretching, plyometrics, and functional training.
Physical therapy plays a crucial role in the evolution of therapeutics for ligament injuries and joint dislocation, from maximal protection, aimed at limiting painful motion and promoting tissue repair, to minimal protection, aimed at increasing overall strength and neuromuscular control.
The success of physical therapy protocols for ligament injuries and joint dislocation depends on the severity of the injury, the patient's compliance, and the therapist's expertise and experience.
