OPP 2 Exam #2 Flashcards
Superior Pubic Shear
Ipsilateral inguinal ligament tense and tender
Inferior Pubic Shear
Ipsilateral inguinal ligament tense and tender
Transverse axis Superior
the cranial primary respiratory mechanism creates motion around this axis
Transverse axis Middle
sacral base anterior and posterior (FB/BB) occur around this axis
Transverse axis Inferior
the innominates rotate around this axis
Lumbosacral Spring Test (neg/pos)
MOVEMENT (Good thing)
Negative test
NO MOVEMENT (Bad thing) Positive test
Positive Lumbosacral Spring Test
NO springing allowed
Non-neutral condition ROL or LOR
b/l sacral extension
unilateral sacral extension
Negative Lumbosacral Spring Test
springing allowed Neutral condition ROR LOL b/l sacral flexion unilateral sacral flexion no sacral somatic dysfunction
positive Sphinx test
If part of the sacral base is posterior, it will resist moving anterior with lumbar extension and thumbs will appear more asymmetric
negative Sphinx test
If part of the sacral base is anterior, it will move more anterior with lumbar extension and thumbs will appear more symmetric

Unilateral Sacral Extension: ME
Treatment Position: Prone
Place your left hypothenar eminence on the patient’s right sacral sulcus
Ask the patient to exhale and hold breath, while you push anterior and caudad on the superior sulcus
