Exam 2 - Pelvis and hip 3 Flashcards
what is the etiology of hypermobility in the LE
traumatic: fx, lig treat, labral tear
atraumatic: extreme motions in sports, labral tear with FAI/IPI, systemic connective tissue disorder
describe what kinds of bone abnormalities can lead to hypermobility in the hip
shallow acetabulum
inferior acetabular insufficiency
excessive femoral version or torsion
excessive femoral neck angle
in the transverse plane, excessive anteversion causes toeing (in/out)
toeing in
in the transverse plane, excessive retroversion causes toeing (in/out)
toeing out
describe coxa valga
frontal plane
larger angle of inclination
leads to genu vara or bow legged position
descrive coxa vara
smaller angle of inclination
leads to genu valga or knocked kneed position
list the risk factors of hypermobility in the hip
genetics
injury
pt activities: running, dance, any activity that involves rotation, flexion, hyperextension
what are the symptoms of hip hypermobility
anterior groin or lateral hip pain
popping, locking, snapping present
feeling of instability especially when squatting
what would you expect to find in your scan with hip hypermobility
ROM: hip R > 30 at 90 flx
CM: possible inconsistent block
Special: (+) hip apprehension, abnormal femoral version/torsion
what is hip apprehension test
pt prone, move hip into ext with ER and ABD while applying anterior inferior force onf emur
what is the focus of PT for hip hypermobility
primary focus is on cartilage integrity and stabilisation
what is regional interdependence
theory that different body regions are biomechanically and neurophysiological interdependent and impairment in one region can contribute to impairment in another
what is the prominant innervation to the L4-S1 Z joints
L4 dorsal rami
what is the predominant and the most consistent innervation to L4-S1 discs
L1,2 dorsal root ganglia and L4 and L5 sinuvertebral nerves
what is the primary innervation of the iliolumbar ligaments
L1-4 spinal nerves
if any of the L4-SS1 joints are persistently hypermobile/unstable, what muscles groups are more likely to excessively recruiter d/t the predominance of L1-4 innervation and sensitization
hip flexors (L1,2)
hip adductors (L3)
knee extensors (L3,4)
ankle dorsiflexion (L4,5)
