Hip Groin Thigh Pelvis Flashcards
bones fuse at what age?
17
the strongest ligament of the of the pelvis is?
iliofemoral
what is the only quad muscle that crosses the hip
rectus femorus
whats is the muscle that usually get really tight and makes ppl look like they have big butts
iliospoas
sciatic nerve innervates?
femoral nerve innervates?
obturator innervates?
- posterior thigh
- anterior thigh
- adductor group
3 external iliac arteries
- femoral (travels deep into the adductor canal)
- deep femoral
- femoral circumflex (femoral neck and hip)
- the biggest vein in the body
- one femoral vein
- great saphenous vein
- external iliac vein
? is part of the deep fascia that invests the thigh musculature
the fascia lata femoris
the compartments are thick anteriorly, posteriorly, and laterally, but thin?
on the medial side
the IT band is located laterally serving serving ad the attachment for?
tensor fascia lata and greater aspect of the gluteus maximum
where do the quadriceps insert?
in a common tendon to the proximal patella
Hamstrings cross the knee joint ? and all except the short of ? crosses the hip
posteriorly
- head of the biceps
Bi-articulate muscles produce forces dependent upon position of both?
the knee and hip
pelvis moves in how many planes?
3
hip moves in how many planes
3
muscles are most commonly injured in what region
hip and pelvis
why can a injury to one muscles be very disabling and difficult to distinguish
because there are numerous muscles that attach in that region
what usually gets hurt (ligaments or muscle)
muscle!
when the hip does dislocate what direction does it dislocate in?
backwards
3 injury prevention techniques
1) protective equipment
2) physical conditioning
3) shoes
2 chronic/ overuse injuries
- trochanteric bursitis
- femoral stress fracture
- Exposed to blunt trauma
- usually develop as a result of severe impact & resultant muscular compression
contusions
what determines the depth of functional disruption that occurs during a contusion
extent of the force and degree of thigh relaxation
- Localized pain, bleeding, swelling & temporary loss of function
- weakness (extending or flexing knee) can go all the way as deep as the femur
- Graded 1-4 superficial to dee
quad contusions
what position do you have the quad in when icing
flexed to decrease bleeding to the area
- RICE (knee flexion), protect (crutches), NSAIDS, therapy for pain
- ROM and stretching
- no massage or heat initially!
management of contusion
Little or no pain • Mild hemorrhaging • No swelling • Mild pt. Tenderness • No disability in terms of ROM
(what grade of contusion)
1st degree
Mild pain • Mild swelling • Mild to moderate hemorrhaging • Mild point tenderness • Mild disability (>90° knee flexion) • Limping
(what grade of contusion)
2nd degree
Moderate pain • Moderate swelling • Moderate disability (>45° but < 90° of knee flexion) • Obvious limping
(what grade of contusion)
3rd degree
Severe pain • Severe swelling • Severe disability (<45° of knee flexion) • Potential muscle herniation • Obvious limp or unable to wt. bear
(what degree of contusion)
4th degree
Direct blow to iliac crest or abdominal musculature
hip pointer (contusion)
- Pain, spasm, swelling, transitory paralysis of soft structures
- Decreased rotation of trunk or thigh/hip flexion
hip pointer (contusion)
management of hip pointer (contusion) (2)
- RICE for 48hrs, ice massage, protection upon RTP
- May need physician referral to rule out fracture
Formation of ectopic bone following direct blow, repeated blunt trauma, or improper care of thigh contusion
myositis ossificans
