Q

Outcome measures for hip pathology

A
  • Harris Hip Score: Pain, Gait, ADLs, Sport sub scales, ROM
  • WOMAC (Western Ontario & McMaster Universities Arthritis Index): more OA specific, physical function, pain, stiffness; higher scores indicate worse Sx
  • International hip outcome tool (i-HOT): for younger active populations, uses VAS, appropriate for activity level ≥4 on modified Tegnar Activity Scale
  • Patient Specific Functional Scale
  • FABQ
  • LEFS
  • Ostwestry

Q

Differentiation sequence before testing the hip

A

Q

Slide 29

A
18
Q

What does glute minimus referral pattern mimic

A
  • Mimics Sciatica
  • Trigger points can also cause paresthesia
19
Q

What does TFL mimic

A
  • Mimics hip joint pain AKA “psuedotrrochanteric bursitis”
  • Pain worse with movement
20
Q

What are the 4 ways the sciatic nerve can exit the pelvis (in order of most common to least common)

A
  • All fibers pass anterior to piriformis b/w the muscle & the rim of the greater sciatic foramen (usual route)
  • Peroneal portion passes through piriformis muscle & the tibial portion travels anterior to muscle
  • Peroneal portion loops above & then posterior to muscle & the tibial portion passes anterior to it; both portions lie b/w the muscle and the upper for lower rim of the greater sciatic foramen
  • Undivided sciatic nerve penetrates the piriformis muscle
21
Q

Trigger points in what muscle is the most common cause of groin pain

A
  • Adductor longus
22
Q

Adductor Magnus trigger points can be a source of what problems

A
  • Pelvic pain syndromes
  • Menstrual problems
  • Painful intercourse
  • Stress incontinence or anal/genital/perineal pain
23
Q

How are pectinous trigger points described as

A
  • A deep seated aching pain in the groin immediately distal to the inguinal ligament
24
Q

How are gracilis trigger points described as

A
  • A local, hot, stinging, superficial pain that travels along the medial aspect of the thigh
25
Q

How are semitendiosus, semimembranosus, & biceps femurs trigger points described as

A
  • Sx described as buttock, thigh, knee pain, & sciatica
  • SemiT and SemiM trigger points have more proximal referral pain
  • Biceps femoris trigger points have more knee pain
26
