Preliminary questions [31145]
there is some evidence that suffering from a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of a foot may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.31169 the veteran has suffered from a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body at some time.
31171 — the veteran has established the causal connection between suffering from a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body and VEA service for the clinical onset of pes planus.
31381 — the condition under consideration is acquired pes planus.
31189 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury and VEA service for the clinical onset of pes planus.
31188 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury and operational service for the clinical onset of pes planus.
or
31190 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury and eligible service for the clinical onset of pes planus.
or
the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred after the end of the veteran's last period of VEA service. the condition under consideration permanently worsened.31191 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury and VEA service for the clinical worsening of pes planus.
31192 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury and operational service for the clinical worsening of pes planus.
or
31193 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury and eligible service for the clinical worsening of pes planus.
Clinical onset and operational service [31188]
on operational service, the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body. on operational service, the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration. the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body on operational service before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.or
the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body as a consequence of an illness or injury which is identifiable.31182 as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.
31183 — the identified illness or injury which caused the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [31190]
on eligible service, the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body. on eligible service, in the course of eligible service duties, the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body. on eligible service, in the course of eligible service duties, the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration. the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body on eligible service before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.or
the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body as a consequence of an illness or injury which is identifiable.31182 as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.
31184 — the identified illness or injury which caused the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body is causally related to eligible service.
Clinical worsening and operational service [31192]
on operational service, in the course of operational service duties, the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body. on operational service, in the course of operational service duties, the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration. the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body on operational service before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.or
the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body as a consequence of an illness or injury which is identifiable.31196 as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran suffered a discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.
31183 — the identified illness or injury which caused the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body is causally related to operational service.
the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the identified illness or injury which caused the discrete ligamentous, muscular or tendon injury resulting in instability of one or more of the tarsal or tarso-metatarsal joints of side and site of the body is causally related.Clinical worsening and eligible service [31193]
