Hip Mechanics w/ PFP (knee)

A
  • Females: 21 PFP vs 20 no pain
    • PFP= INC hip IR
    • PFP= 14% LESS hip ABD torque
    • PFP= 17% LESS hip EXT torque
    • PFP= INC glute max recruitment needed to stabilize hip***

  • Atrophy of ALL PORTIONS OF QUADS was present in PFP group vs control w/ no patho
  • *********
79
Q

HIP is the answer

w/ PFP

A
  • Systemic review concluded studies including Hip ER & ABD’s w/ quad strengthening had LOWER pain values & better functioning than quad strengthening alone
80
Q

Strength Ratios for Hip ABD and Hip ER

A
  • Hip ABD= 30deg of ABD & HHD 10cm proximal to lateral femoral condyle
  • Hip ER= sitting 90/90, HHD just proximal to medial malleolus
81
Q

Take Home Message

A
  • Clinical cutoff to define HIGH RISK:
    • Hip ABD <35.4% of bw
    • Hip ER <20.3% of bw
82
Q

Horse is Dead!!!!

A
  • STOP trying to strengthen VMO→ VMO weakness is the effect NOT the cause of the problem
