General Review Flashcards
inguinal ligament TP
Superior, lateral surface of pubic bone
Legs flexed to 90 degrees, adducted and internal rotation of affected femur
iliacus (psoas) TP
2” inferior and 2” medial from ASIS
Stand on TP side. Flex pt legs, externally rotate legs and place them on your thigh. Flex, sidebend toward the TP until resolves
low ilium TP
lateral ramus of anterior surface of pubic bone
Affected side leg flexed to 90 degrees and abducted as needed
lateral trochanter TP
Lateral surface of femor 0-15cm distal from greater trochanter in IT band
Slight flex the hip, add abduction (generally more then flexion) and internal rotation
posterior lateral trochanter TP
superior surface of posterior greater trochanter
Add in moderate amount of extension, some abduction and whole lote of external rotation until the TP resolbes
anterior lateral trochanter
5-7cm lateral and inferior to ASIS but anterior and superior to the greater trochanter
Flex hip 70-90 degrees; add abduction and external rotation until TP resolves
high ilium TP
4-5 cm lateral to PSIS
Extend affected leg and add slight abduction of thigh
midpole SI (ilium inflare superior, MPSI)
3-4 cm inferior to PSIS over SI Joint
Slight flexion of affected leg with abduction and rotation
Piriformis TP
Belly of the piriformis 8-9 cm medial and slightly superior to greater trochanter (but can be anywhere along the track of the muscle
Suspend pt’s leg off table and rest the leg on your thigh. Flex the hip to about 135 degrees, abduct slightly via the knee and internally or externally rotate the knee until the TP resolves
High ilium out flare (HIFO)
Coccyx or sacrococcygeal joint
Extend affected leg and adduct over opposite leg
posterior sacrum (PSI-5)
median crest centrally or bilaterally
Gentle anterior pressure on opposite part of sacrum from TP or attempt to bring base and apex together by cupping the sacrum and flexing your fingers
adrenal glands anterior and posterior chapman’s
Anteriorly 2” superior and 1” lateral to umbilicus
heart anterior and posterior CP

posterior T3
upper lung CP a/p
Anterior rib 3
