Q

iliopsoas snapping hip PE

A

inspect

observe reaction during rise of the hand

feel snap on extension of hip from flexed position

28
Q

labrum snapping hip PE

A

inspect

shortening of leg, limp with walk

29
Q

best diagnostic study snapping hip labral tear

A

MR arthrogram with gadolinium

30
Q

snapping hip tx

A

non painful - reassure

NSAID or corticosteroid injection

31
Q

hip strain

A

muscles suddenly stressed to resistance

32
Q

hip strain hx

A

sudden onset (“I pulled a muscle”) although can be from over use or under condition

33
Q

PE hip strain

A

stretch affected muscle or use muscle against resistance

34
Q

dx studies hip strain

A

AP pelvis, frog leg

MRI only indicated for possible torn muscle/tendon

35
Q

ddx hip strain

A

fracture to ASIS or AIIS (get XR to rule this out)

36
Q

hip strain tx

A

phase 1: RICE 48-72 hrs

2: PROM exercise, heat 72 hrs -1 week
3: isometrics (week 1-3)
4: strength and condition 2-4

37
Q

thigh strain QUADS

A

direct blow (I.e. football or soccer)

38
Q

thigh strain HAMSTRINGS

A

most often injured

sudden onset (pain and pop while running)

39
Q

Pe thigh strain

A

possible antalgic gait and ecchymosis (if torn(

hamstrings - flexion of hip and extension of knee cause pain

quads - flexion of knee causes pain

40
Q

trochanteric bursa

A

lie between greater trochanter of femur and ITB

41
Q

trochanteric bursitis

A

inflamed from tight ITB or associated OA, leg length discrepancies, idiopathic

42
Q

hx trochanteric bursitis

A

pain over lateral hip (greater trochanter) esp when standing from seated position or lying down

43
Q

trochanteric bursitis PE

A

pain worse with abduction

tenderness

44
Q

trochanteric bursitis Dx studies

A

AP pelvis and frog leg (r/o boney pathology)

45
Q

prevention and tx trochanteric bursitis

A

don’t lie on that side

NSAID, corticosteroid if tx fails

46
Q

hip dislocation

A

strong ligaments surround hip so this is hard to do

typically due to high energy trauma

47
Q

hip dislocation mc

A

Posterior dislocation 90% of them

48
Q

hip dislocation PE

A

must check NV status

posterior will hold tight flexed, adducted, and internally rotated, NV STATUS

anterior: thigh minimally flexed, abducted, externally rotated

49
Q

dx studies hip dislocation

A

AP pelvis, and AP/lateral femur (including knee)

posterior = head of femur appears smaller 
anterior = head of femur appears larger 

CT may be needed

50
Q

hip dislocation complications

A

orthopedic emergency

loss of blood supply can cause osteonecrosis, post traumatic OA and femoral or sciatic n palsy

51
Q

hip dislocation non rx tx

A

immediate reduction (w/in 3 hrs)

surgical stabilization may be needed (acetabulum fracture)

52
Q

femur shaft fx

A

high energy impact

Osteoporosis is more common in neck region

53
Q

PE femur shaft fx

A

look for deformity, edema, open wounds

inspect whole extremity

gently feel for crepitus and NV status

54
Q

tx femur shaft fx

A

long leg posterior splint or traction splint until sx

if open - surgical debridement, tetanus prophylaxis and IV ABX

55
Q

pelvis fracture

A

ring that supports the worse

disruption = loss of function until fixed/healed

56
Q

hx pelvis fracture

A

low energy (elderly)

pain with motion of affects LE

acetabular fas often associated with hip locations

57
Q

dx studies pelvis fracture

A

low energy - AP pelvis

high energy - AP pelves, inlet and outlet (judet) and oblique pelvis

ENTIRE BODY (CT PAN SCAN)****

58
Q

what do we use to classify the young burgess for?

A

classification of pelvis fracture

59
Q

pelvis fracture compilations

A

abdominal organs and pelvic organs damaged

SHOCK

chest injuries, head injuries, neck injuries, fat emboli

60
Q

pelvis fracture tx

A

WBAT and assist (low energy)

high engird 0 hemodynamic stabilization with pelvic girdle, ORIF once stable

IV morphine

61
Q

proximal femur fx

A

neck fracture due to osteoporosis (elderly women)

62
Q

risk factors proximal femur fx

A
smoking
sedentery lifestyle 
alcohol abuse
psych meds
dementia
63
Q

hx proximal femur fx

A

fall to side
land on hip
unable to stand or ambulate
pain in groin/thigh

64
Q

what classification do we use for a proximal femur fx

A

garden classification

65
Q

proximal femur fx tx

A

surgical intervention
admit NWB with external traction for comfort
IM/IV narcotic (caution of respiratory depression)
