McMurray’s Test: checks for meniscal tears in the knee

Varus Test: stress test, checks for joint laxity on the outside of the knee
- how to: patient lying on their back, put one hand at the joint line on the outer part of the knee. Put the other hand on the ankle of the affected side. Flex the knee between 20° and 30° and apply a lateral force to the knee. 15 to 20 pounds of force should be applied.
Anatomy
MOI
- short for Ilio Tibial Band Friction Syndrome (ITBFS)
- Ilio Tibial Band (ITB) connects to your pelvis, goes down the outer side of the thigh and connects with the outer side of the Tibia
- Ilio Tibial Band is the tissue that connects the hip to the knee.
- Overuse: bending the knee regularly to overstretch the tendons
- Direct trauma: falling directly on the knee
- Misalignment: when the bones are out of the correct position
- Problems with feet: flat feet or fallen arches (your arch falls, stretching the tendon)
- weak thigh muscles
