Innominate Flashcards
For all innominate dysfunctions, on which side will you find a + standing flexion test?
-on the dysfunctional side
After the the standing flexion test, we lay them supine to do the pelvic compression test… BUT FIRST, what should we do before that?
-RESET THE HIPS!
on what side will we find a positive pelvic compression test for all innominate dysfunctions?
-on the dysfunctional side
For superior shear, how will the ASIS, PSIS, and medial malleolus heights be?
-higher on dysfunctional side… makes sense
How will the pubic symphysis look like on all innominate dysfunctions except pubic shear?
-they will be normal
How are all of the distances between the umbilicus and ASIS except with inflares and outflares?
- normal
- inflare: decreased
- outflare: increased… makes sense
ME for superior shear?
- supine
- IR/AB, inf traction
- pt. pull superiorly
HVLA for Superior shear
- Supine
- do the same as for ME but with a leg tug
ME for inferior shear?
- LR (df side up)
- grab ASIS and PSIS
- pull lateral, push hip superiorly w/ exhale, resist inhale
HVLA for inferior shear?
- LR
- just like ME, but push Superiorly at the end
anterior rotation ME
- supine
- flex hip and knee
- pt pushes into ext
- increase flexion
Anterior rotation HVLA?
- LR (df up)
- flex legs to df, exten btm leg
- drop top leg off table
- stablilze shoulder
- force B/W PSIS AND GR TROCHANTER
- inf through femur w/ exhale
Posterior rotation ME
- supine
- stabilize at opp ASIS
- extend leg off table
- push inf
- pt. push sup
Posterior rotation HVLA
- LR (df up)
- flex legs to df
- extend btm leg
- top foot behind btm knee
- rotate upper body back down
- force B/W PSIS AND ILIAC CREST TO UMBILICUS
ME for inflare dysfunction
- Supine
- opp side of DF
- put df leg into Faber-4
- stabilize at non-DF ASIS
- place hand on inside of DF knee
- stretch ER/AB
- Pt push IR/AD
- no HVLA for this
