Document Summary

Spool fits in to the tibi0-fibular mortise. Syndesmosis a (cid:272)o(cid:373)(cid:271)i(cid:374)atio(cid:374) of 3 liga(cid:373)e(cid:374)ts (cid:862)itfl(cid:863) Holds tibia and fibula together to talas. Talas has no muscle attachment (passive structure) Sustentaculum tali (shelf), medial side, supports talas. Pf wide part goes out of mortise (smaller) Df slide back in, wide part of talas into mortise (adjusts/larger) What does gravity* want? (we use muscles that oppose gravity) Tc (talocrural), st(sub-talar), ip(interphalangeal) and mtp(metatarsal phalangeal) Dorsiflexion is foot coming to leg or leg coming to foot (make spamuce between them smaller) What defines the joint action is how the body segments move relative to one another. Movement can be described as open kinetic chain (okc) or closed kinetic chain (ckc) Open movement at one part does not force other parts to move. Closed movement at one part of the chain will force movement of others.
