19
Q

what is the log roll?

A

• Roll the patient’s leg into internal and external rotation.
• (+) Test: Pain
• Indicates: Central or peripheral compartment
pathology

20
Q

C Sign?

A
  • Patient characteristically points to the source of pain with two fingers or cups just above the trochanter with the thumb and index finger
  • Indicates: Labral pathology
21
Q

Labral Loading?

A
  • Flex the patient’s knee and hip to 90 °, load into the femur towards the innominate
  • (+) Test: pain
  • Indicates: Labral or cartilaginous pathology
22
Q

Labral Distraction

A
  • Distract patient’s femur away from innominate
  • (+) Test: Improvement of pain
  • Indicates: Labral or cartilaginous pathology
23
Q

Scour test?

A
  • Flex and externally rotate patient’s hip. Load into socket and articulate through annular range of motion.
  • (+) Test: Pain
  • Indicates: Labral or articular cartilage pathology
24
Q

Apprehension: Faber?

A
  • Patient’s hip is flexed, abducted and externally rotated. Physician induces further external rotation by applying a posterior force at the knee.
  • (+) Test= anterior subluxation of hip or apprehension/pain
  • Indicates: Labral pathology. Can also be positive with impingement.
25
Q

Rectus femoris test?

A
  • Patient supine. One hip is flexed up to the chest. The other leg is bent over the edge of the table.
  • (+) Test: knee flexion < 90°
  • Indicates: Rectus Femoris contraction
26
Q

Thomas Test?

A
  • Patient supine and pulls knees to chest. One leg is lowered to the table to test the flexibility of the hip flexors.
  • (+) Test: Inability to fully extend, or extended leg raises off table

28
Q

Straight leg raise test

A

• Patient supine. Passively flex patient’s ipsilateral hip with knee extended
• (+) Test: Pain over lateral leg, especially at >15 ̊
• Indicates: IT band contracture
o Positivesignsusuallyoccurbetween30-60 ̊if cause is lumbosacral radiculopathy and/or sciatic neuropathy
o Positive signs at >70 ̊ is more likely mechanical low back pain due to muscle strain or joint disease.

29
Q

Piriformis Test

A
  • Patient supine with hip and knee flexed, one ankle crossed over contralateral knee. Patient abducts against resistance.
  • (+) Test: Pain over posterior aspect of greater trochanter
  • Indicates: Piriformis spasm or pathology

THIS IS PAIN IN THE GLUTEAL REGION, PATRICK FABER IS WEAKNESS IN GLUTEUS MEDIUS

A

2/3 is

  • Patient’s hip is flexed, abducted, and externally rotated. Physician braces contralateral ASIS, patient externally rotates/abducts against resistance.
  • (+) Test: Pain or weakness
  • Indicates: Gluteus medius pathology

3/3 is

  • Patient’s hip is flexed, abducted, and externally rotated. Physician braces contralateral ASIS. Patient internally rotates/adducts against resistance.
