You are now tuning in to the MPTE Clinical Files, two mock MPTE-based questions told and solved

week by week. Thank you for tuning in to the MPT clinical files. My name is Kyle Rice, the MPT

prep coach, the founder of the PT Hustle and the creator of the MPT Prep Success Coaching Program.

And if you would like a free cheat sheet that goes along with this specific

question tune in to the end of this episode and I'm going to give you more information on how to

get that all right so for our next mpt clinical file we have our patient sahar and sahar presents

with a fixed left ankle into 30 degrees of planter flexion after elective surgery.

The patient has marked left genu recorvatham and complaints of persistent posterior knee pain

with prolonged standing.

To reduce stress on the posterior structures, the therapist would most likely recommend

A. All right, so we have a, a six to eight week quadriceps strengthening program. B, knee ankle

foot orthosis locked into zero degrees extension C tennis shoes with a built

up heel and D is a spiral carbon fiber aFO all right so I had to slow down a little bit with

that one I'm sorry y'all My reading was obviously not the best.

There's just too many A's at one time.

It's like most likely recommend a, A, A, six to eight week.

Okay, all right, you get the point.

Anyway, I apologize.

Let's go up to the top of the question.

It says, Sahar presents with a fixed left ankle into 30 degrees of planter flexion after elective surgery.

So I really need to slow up here so I can get an idea of what the heck is going on.

It says fixed left ankle.
