Reliability Study of Diagnostic Tests for Functional Hallux Limitus

Abstract: Background: Functional hallux limitus (FHL) refers to dorsiflexion hallux mobility limitation when the first metatarsal head is under loading conditions but not in the unloaded state. The goal of the study was to evaluate 3 common manual tests (Buell, Dananberg, and Jack tests) for assessing first metatarsophalangeal joint (MPJ) mobility and determining the normal values needed to detect FHL, and clarify the signs and symptoms associated with this pathology. Methods: Forty-four subjects were included in this r… Show more

“…The following inclusion criteria were used to select the participants: (1) healthy participants, between 18 and 30 years old; (2) recreational runners with 3-4 h of training per week with more than 1 year of experience; (3) neutral foot posture index (FPI) with values between 0 and +5 points according to a validity tool [28]; and (4) no injuries or pain at the time of the test. The exclusion criteria were as follows: (1) any lower limb injury during the last 6 months; (2) less movement in either foot joint than what is required to perform the optimal biomechanics according to normal values [29,30]; or (3) under the influence of any drugs effects at the time of the measurements. Body mass index (BMI) was taken into account to select a homogeneous sample, using Quetelet's equation as follows: BMI = weight (kg)/height (m 2 ) [31].…”

“…Considerably greater maximal load and lower stress values may allow immediate weight-bearing or reduce the non-weight bearing period in MTP1 joint arthrodesis with the medial plate. However, further research is required in this area, which considers, for example, the effect of repetitive loading and statistical analysis of the data [ 34 ].…”

“…These results should be considered when talking about runners with functional hallux limitus as the FOs would further reduce the dorsiflexion of the first metatarsal. The less this movement, the more the foot is forced to take off in adduction [ 56 ].…”
