SPECIAL TESTS (6)
Ortolani’s
Barlow’s
Galeazzi’s
Telescoping
Silfverskiold
Staheli
Hip dislocation special test
Ortolani’s
Hip relocation special test
Barlow’s
t or f pt is in supine for both ortolani and barlow
t
ortolani position
Hip and knee are flexed and the hip is ABducted
remember: ORAB
barlow position
Hip and knee are flexed and the hip is ADducted
remember: BAD
t or f barlow and ortolani should always be
done to test for dislocation
f, Not usually done since it is dangerous
Test to check knee height difference
Galeazzi’s
procedure of galleazi:
Hip slightly flexed to flex the knee
t.or f in galleazi the pt is in sidelying
f, in supine
Test to check hip joint laxity (dislocation)
telescoping
Patient in prone for telescoping t or f
f, supine
telescoping position of hip/knee
Hip and knee flexed in 90 degrees
procedure of telescoping:
PT will push and pull the femur (up and
down movement)
hand placement of telescoping:
one hand at hip jt, and other below the knee
Test to evaluate the contraction of ankle joint; also for PF tightness
Silfverskiold
Patient in supine for silverskiold t or f
t
1st position of silverskiold
knee extended and passively
dorsiflex the ankle
2nd position of silverskiold
knee flexed and passively
dorsiflex the ankle
Used to identify the site of rotational
deformity of lower extremity in children
Staheli
what muscle is tesetd in staheli
Iliopsoas tightness
proecudre of staheli:
Extend the leg, the trunk will have an ant.
movement
staheli position:
Long standing w/c use
what special tests are valid for infants 6 mos & below
Ortolani’s, Barlow’s, Galeazzi’s, & Telescoping
angle between the longitudinal axis of foot and direction of gait progression:
Foot progression angle
foot progression angle (FPA) is what test of staheli
Staheli test 1
Foot progression angle gives a measure of degree of __
in or out due to contributions from foot, tibia and femur.
toeing
Foot progression angle gives a measure of degree of toeing in or
out due to contributions from foot, tibia and femur: what test of staheli
Staheli test 1: foot progression angle (FPA)
The normal foot progression is _ with a mean
angle of_ (range −5 to +15°) in children aged _ears
outward, 6, 1-3
Prone position with knees flexed to 90: what staheli test
Staheli test 2
staheli test 2 also called
Medial And Lateral Rotation Of Hip
Internal rotation of hip greater than 70 deg indicates excessive femoral anteversion in stage _
staheli test 2
Internal rotation of hip greater than 70o indicates _
excessive femoral anteversion
Determines the tibial torsion
Staheli test 3:
staheli test 3 also called
Thigh foot angle
Observed from above with patient in prone position and knee flexed to 90: what staheli test
Staheli test 3: Thigh foot angle
in staheli test 2, The foot deformity is assessed by noting the position
of _ in relationship to _by the _ ine.
forefoot, hindfoot, heel bisector
In infants, the average thigh-foot angle measures _ internal (range −30° internal to +20° external).
5
tibial rotational profile changes from _ torsion to _ torsion by _ years of age.
internal to external, 4-5
By the age of _ years, the thigh foot angle averages _ external
8 years, 10
