I think the sentence portion is correct, he is examining basically the knee cap and joint, you would use "suprapatellar" instead of suprapatella, because in this case he is using "suprapatellar" to modify the noun bursa (like which bursa?  the suprapatellar bursa).  Any help at all???  (hope so, I think you are doing great, don't be discouraged ever, we all start out fresh!)

Special Tests for Orthopedic Examination is now available in a completely updated and refined new edition. This concise manual is a valuable reference for identifying and performing special tests used during an orthopedic examination. Now available in a spiral-bound format-perfect for the reader to lay-flat and refer to as they are practicing the tests. Students, clinicians, and rehabilitation professionals will enhance their ability to interpret and evaluate their findings.


This new edition takes a simplistic approach to visualizing and explaining over 150 commonly used orthopedic special tests. Readers benefit from the user-friendly, spiral-bound format, as clear and concise text is coupled with excellent photographs to illustrate the subject and clinician positioning. The tests are organized by regions of the body so the reader can easily reference a particular test. Comments found at the end of most of the tests provide valuable clinical insight and detailed implications.


* Listed as one of the Common References used in the development of NATABOC Examinations!

Stedman's Ortho - plantarflexion
Subject: Stedman's Ortho - plantarflexion

Stedman's Orthopaedic & Rehab Words (5th Edition) has it as one word.  I could not find it anywhere in that book as two words.  Personally, this is the way that I have always typed it. 


On the other hand, if you look in Dorland's (31st Edition) under flexion, it says, "plantar flexion."


I am not sure if either way is more accepted over the other.  Perhaps client preference.


Have a nice holiday.
