Q

How to measure acetabulum depth

A
  • Center edge angle
  • decreased angle (dysplasia) - shallow - instability
  • increase angle - more in socket - decreased ROM and impingement

Q

Normal ROM: hip flexion

A

120 with knee bent

*only 90 when knee extended bc of passive insuff of hamstrings

23
Q

Normal ROM: hip extension

A

10-30

bending knee will limit ROM bc of passive insuff of quads

24
Q

zone of weakness

A

anterior femoral neck - trabeculae are weak

25
Q

Normal ROM: hip abduction

A

45-50

*may be limited by gracilis

26
Q

Normal ROM: hip adduction

A

20-30

* may be limited by TFL

27
Q

Normal ROM: hip IR/ER

A

42-50

*45 each

28
Q

Anterior tilt of pelvis causes

A

hip flexion

29
Q

posterior tilt of pelvis causes

A

extension

30
Q

Right hip hike

A

-Right hip ADD , left hip ABD, lumbar SB to the right

31
Q

Right pelvic drop

A

Right hip AB, left hip AD, lumbar SB to left

32
Q

Lateral pelvic tilt in bilateral stance

A

-pelvic shift to the right (left hip drop)
-cannot have hip hike
-right leg with adduct
-left leg with abduct
sooooo
-right abductors and left adductors will work to shift back to neutral

33
Q

Forward and backward pelvic rotation

A
  • movement of the pelvic ring in the transverse plane
  • axis of rotation relates to weight bearing hip
  • if bilateral stance - be specific
  • if weight if on left foot, and right hip moves anterior then it is left hip forward rotation
34
Q

forward rotation causes ____ rotation of the weight bearing limb, but backward rotation causes ___

A

medial rotation / lateral rotation

35
Q

Open kinetic chain

A

head and trunk will follow motion of pelvis; flex lower back and hip

36
Q

Closed kinetic chain

A

head will remain upright; tight hip flexors and lordosis in lower back

37
Q

side lying and lifting leg into abduction ..

A

hip abduction, pelvic hike and lumbar flexion to same side

38
Q

Major hip flexors

A

iliopsoas, rectus femoris, TFL and sartorius

39
Q

hip adductors

A

Pectineus, Add brevis, Add longus, Add magnus & gracilis (only 2 joint adductor)

40
Q

hip extensors

A

glut max
hamstrings
post fibers of glut med, add magnus and piriformis

41
Q

Abductors

A
glut medius (lateral)
glut min (anterior)
42
Q

External rotators

A

obturator internus and externus
inferior and superior gemellus
quadratus femoris
piriformis

43
Q

internal rotators

A

no muscles primary action is IR

-anterior portion of glut med, glut min and TFL

44
Q

When standing what holds us up

A
  • joint capsule and ligaments support 2/3 of body weight (HAT) and 1/3 on each side
  • hips are in extension so capsule is tight
  • gravity is behind the capsule so it can overcome this force
  • NO MUSCLE activity needed to maintain posture
45
Q

How is weight transmitted

A
  • weight from HAT
  • force to the pelvic
  • to the femur
  • causes hip joint compression
46
Q

Unilateral stance

A
  • R hip suppors HAT and weight of L leg
  • weight also causes right hhip add
  • abductors counteract this force
  • muscle force also causes compression at the joint
47
Q

Compensatory lateral lean

A
  • we lean to leg that is bearing weight
  • to decrease MA of abductors
  • decrease the joint compression
  • but increase stress on lumbar spine
48
Q

Trendelenburg

A
  • trunk lean due to glut med weakness
  • pelvic will drop with weak hip abductors
  • lateral trunk will lean
49
Q

Antalgic gait

A

-trunk lean due to hip pain

50
Q

use of a cane ipsilaterally

A
  • cane reduces BW by 15%
  • if no lateral trunk lean, then more joint compressing forces with ipsilateral cane compared to trunk lean
  • function of cane is to take away the lateral lean and move COM back to base of stability - this is hurting you because causing even more compression on bad side
51
Q

use of cane contralaterally

A
  • when contralateral cane can also assist the right hip (bad hip) abduction
  • therefore, only joint compression by BW (minus what is loaded through the hand)
52
Q

Femoroacetabular impiingement

A

Cam or Pincer

53
Q

Cam impingement

A
  • deformity of femoral neck
  • widening of neck
  • anerior superior labrum inpingement
54
Q

Pincer impingement

A
  • abnormal, deeper acetabulum

- causes compression of the superior labrum

55
Q

Arthrosis

A
  • most common = OA
  • related to anatomical abnormalities
  • increased age/height ratio
  • running is NOT associated with OA changes
56
Q

Hip fractures

A
  • caused by bending force at neck
  • break at the zone of weakness
  • more likely in >70
