Ella

Ella- Physiotherapy Notes 28/10/24 Ella was seen for her follow-up appointment today. Quality food ration given. Her stand posture is solid and Ella is weight bearing more evenly on all 4 limbs. There is still some audible clicking from forelimbs and these are still overloading during rising. Left hindlimb still preferred hindlimb for locomotion and bracing but this is becoming more even with the right hindlimb. Slight tarsal hyperextension preferred to disengage the quadriceps. Right hindlimb shown hypertonicity of the gracilis muscle on the medial thigh and decreased tonicity laterally. Elbow flexion was resented mildly. Functional tests: Sit posture - able to sit square majority of cases. Rising from the sit Much improved and slight toe movement on full stand but markedly better. Lie to stand was Greatly improved. Turning left was good, hindlimb under midline and rhythm good. Turning right showed big improvement with better weight bearing. Aim: Improve stability horsestohoundsphysio@gmail.com www.horsestohoundsphysio.co.uk 07729002162 horsestohoundsphysio@gmail.com www.horsestohoundsphysio.co.uk 07729002162 horsestohoundsphysio@gmail.com www.horsestohoundsphysio.co.uk 07729002162 horsestohoundsphysio@gmail.com www.horsestohoundsphysio.co.uk 07729002162
