FROM MY PT SCHOOL NOTES · UNIT 5 OF 5
Foot, Ankle & Clinical Integration
Finish the Musculoskeletal course with ankle/foot biomechanics, acute sprain and recurrent-instability reasoning, and a short framework for choosing a meaningful functional outcome. The original lecture concepts appear alongside separately identified newer evidence.
Lessons
- 20 — Foot and ankle examination
- 21 — Lateral ankle sprain and chronic instability
- 22 — Clinical integration and meaningful outcomes
A decision-first approach
Understand the patient’s complaint, screen appropriately, identify competing explanations, match rehabilitation to the task and retest outcomes. These are not universal diagnostic or postoperative protocols.
Personal class-note companion. Confirm source guidance, safety criteria and course expectations as appropriate.
