    COURSE OUTCOME
    Knee Joint Complex
    • The knee joint consists of two articulating surfaces
    between the femoral condyles and tibial plateaus
    with a fibro-cartilaginous disc between each
    articulation, as well as the articulation of the patella
    with the femoral groove
    Tibiofemoral Articulations
    • Resting position- The resting position is 25˚ flexion.
    • Treatment plane- The treatment plane is along the
    surface of the tibial plateaus; therefore, it moves
    with the tibia as the knee angle changes.
    • Stabilization- In most cases, the femur is stabilized
    with a belt or by the table
    Tibiofemoral Distraction: Long-
    Axis Traction
    • Indications- Testing; initial treatment; pain control;
    general mobility.
    • Patient Position - Sitting, supine, or prone,
    beginning with the knee in the resting position.
    Tibiofemoral Posterior Glide
    Tibiofemoral Posterior Glide:
    Alternate Positions and Progression
    Tibiofemoral Anterior Glide
    Patellofemoral Joint, Distal Glide
    Patellofemoral Medial or Lateral
    Glide
