Q

Innominate flare

A

ASIS is more medial or lateral compared to opposite side - measure relative to umbilicus

19
Q

Innominate inflare

A

ASIS more medial

20
Q

Innominate outflare

A

ASIS more lateral

21
Q

What are the 3 sacral motions?

A

Flexion (nutation)
Extension
Oblique axis rotation

22
Q

The sacrum flexes and extends around what axis?

A

Transverse axis

23
Q

Sacral nutation

A

Flexion

24
Q

When the sacrum flexes around the transverse axis, what tips forward?

A

Sacral base

25
Q

The sacrum rotates around what axis?

A

Oblique

26
Q

What is an oblique axis?

A

Vertical axis slightly tilted

27
Q

How is the sacral oblique axis named?

A

For which sacral base (R/L top corner) it passes through

28
Q

Ex. Left oblique axis with right rotation. What is the sacral movement?

A

Top right sacral base rotates posteriorly

29
Q

4 steps to assessing innominates for somatic dysfunction

A
  1. Screen innominates for somatic dysfunction (TART)
  2. Lateralization tests
  3. Palpate bony landmarks
  4. Diagnose innominate somatic dysfunction
30
Q

How do you screen innominate for somatic dysfunction (step 1)?

A

Have them stand, and you sit behind them and assess for posterior spine/innominates TART - find one side that is worse

31
Q

What are the lateralization tests (step 2)?

A

ASIS compression test

Standing flexion test

32
Q

ASIS compression test

A

Posteromedial compression of both ASIS

- find which side is more resistant to compression

33
Q

Standing flexion test

A

Have patient stand and you monitor both PSIS’s with your thumbs. Have patient bend over and see which PSIS moves SUPERIORLY

34
Q

For the lateralization tests, the dysfunctional sides move how?

A

ASIS compression test - harder end feel

Standing flexion test - PSIS moves superior

35
Q

What are the bony landmarks to palpate (step 3)?

A 
Iliac crests
ASIS
Pubic tubercles
Medial malleoli
PSIS
36
Q

Anterior rotated innominate

A

Iliac crests and pubic tubercles = EVEN
ASIS and medial malleolus = INFERIOR
PSIS = SUPERIOR

37
Q

Posterior rotated innominate

A

Iliac crests and pubic tubercles = EVEN
ASIS and medial malleolus = SUPERIOR
PSIS = INFERIOR

38
Q

Superior innominate shear

A

ALL boney landmarks are SUPERIOR

39
Q

Inferior innominate shear

A

ALL boney landmarks are INFERIOR

40
Q

Innominate inflare

A

ASIS more medial

41
Q

Innominate outflare

A

ASIS more lateral

42
Q

Superior/Inferior pubic shear

A

Pubic tubercle ONLY is either superior or inferior compared to other side

43
Q

What should you do before you begin the ASIS compression test?

A

Reset the hips!

- Have patient push hips toward sky and then back down
