Your Patient's Knee Was Immobilized in a Long Leg Cast

Your patient's knee was immobilized in a long leg cast for more than a month.To improve knee ROM, you have been treating the knee with a grade III posterior glide of the tibia with the knee in the resting position.To progress the procedure for which this treatment was intended, you could:

A) Take the joint to the end of the range of flexion, internally rotate the tibia, and apply a sustained grade III distraction.
B) Use a grade IV posterior glide oscillation technique in the resting position.
C) Position the tibia in a resting position, then externally rotate the tibia and apply a grade III posterior glide.
D) Take the joint to the end of the range of flexion, position the tibia in external rotation, and apply a grade III sustained posterior glide.
