Q

MET for anterior rotated innominant

A

. Place patient’s right knee against physician’s shoulder closest to the patient.

  1. Flex the patient’s hip to the feather edge of the restrictive barrier, moving the innominate posteriorly.
  2. With cephalad hand reach under and contact ischial tuberosity to guide posterior rotation of the innominate or brace opposite ASIS.
  3. Instruct the patient to push their knee inferiorly into physician’s shoulder while providing isometric counterforce.
  4. Maintain this contraction and counterforce for 3-5 seconds.
  5. Instruct the patient to relax.
  6. Wait until the tissues relax (at least 2 seconds), then re-engage the feather edge of the barrier.
  7. Repeat steps 3-6 two to four more times or until no further change is noted.
  8. Return to neutral.
  9. Reassess.

Q

What are the criteria for a positive and negative ASIS compression test

A

A negative test will have a small amount of free motion of the ilium with respect to the sacrum before the entire pelvis begins to rotate. In addition, there will be a ligamentous (firm but not bony) end-feel.
A positive test will have NO motion of the ilium with respect to the sacrum, and the pelvis will rotate immediately. Repeat the procedure on both sides.

Exaggeration of normal flexion or extension.
Sacral sulci equal but excessively deep or shallow.

Physician INternally rotates ipsilateral leg (patient maintains this position)
Physician contacts the ipsilateral INferior lateral angle with his thenar eminence and introduces an anterior (ventral) springing force to the point of maximal barrier.
Patient is instructed to INhale maximally and hold. Physician maintains force when the patient exhales.
