1. A patient who is seen three months post right ankle fracture has an active range of motion of 0 ° to 20 ° dorsiflexion and 0° to 5° of plantarflexion. To restore motion required for normal plantarflexion, which of the following joint mobilization techniques should the PT perform?...

1. A patient who is seen three months post right ankle fracture has an active range of motion of 0 ° to 20 ° dorsiflexion and 0° to 5° of plantarflexion. To restore motion required for normal plantarflexion, which of the following joint mobilization techniques should the PT perform? a. Anterior glide of the talus b. Lateral glide of the calcaneus c. Medial glide of the calcaneus d. Posterior glide of the talus 2. A PT is testing the active shoulder range of motion of a 45-year-old female patient. The PT asks the patient to move the shoulder to full medial/internal rotation. During medial rotation at the shoulder joint (GH joint), the humerus will slide which direction? (Bonus: Which glide is used for limited wrist extension? Which Functional Activities? \*Note\* Adhesive Capsulitis as an exception.) e. Anteriorly f. Superiorly g. Inferiorly h. Posteriorly 3. A patient demonstrated painful ROM in flexion movement during range of motion examination of shoulder. Which of the following joint mobilization techniques is MOST appropriate for the patient? i. Large amplitude oscillations performed at the beginning of the range of motion in an anterior direction j. Small amplitude oscillations into tissue resistance up to the limit of available motion in an anterior direction k. Large amplitude oscillations within the available range of motion in a posterior direction l. Small amplitude oscillations into tissue resistance at the limit of available joint motion in a posterior direction 4. PT examination reveals posterior superior iliac spine (PSIS) is low on the left; anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) is high on the left. Interventions should MOST likely include: m. Stretching the right hip flexors to correct right anterior rotated innominate n. Strengthening of left hip flexors to correct left posterior rotatedinnominate o. Stretching the left hip extensors to correct left posterior rotated innominate p. Strengthening the right hip extensors to correct right posterior rotated innominate 5. While examining the patient, the PT notices a drop of the left hip during right midstance as shown in the image. The MOST LIKELY cause of this impairment can be the injury of: q. Right inferior gluteal nerve r. Right superior gluteal nerve s. Right femoral nerve t. Right obturator nerve 6. The MOST appropriate treatment for left hip drop during midstance should be: u. Stand on right leg and abduct the left leg v. Stand on left leg and extend the right leg w. Stand on right leg and flex the right leg x. Stand on left leg and flex the right leg 7. Which of the following exercises is LEAST appropriate? y. Side lying straight leg raise (SLR) of the right leg z. Isometric right abductor strengthening in supine position a. Clam shells of the right leg b. Bridging in supine position 8. A PT is evaluating muscle function during gait. The three hamstring muscles contract eccentrically during which phase of gait cycle? c. Initial Swing d. Terminal Swing e. Midstance f. Terminal Stance
