Answer to Question 1

dorsiflexed

Rationale: An AP oblique ankle with 45 degree medial rotation requires the foot to be dorsiflexed. Dorsiflexion is necessary to prevent superimposition of the distal fibula and the calcaneus.

Answer to Question 2

pulling the patient

Rationale: Patients placed on the transfer board should be transferred over by pulling the patient to reduce the build up of friction from pushing.
