Pelvic Flashcards
SCP of knee raiser
inferomedial PSIS
CP of knee raiser
thumb pads
ipsilateral movement of knee raiser;
contralateral movement of knee raiser
PSIS rotates Post, Inf, Med;
PSIS rotates Ant and Sup
SCP of seated sacro-iliac flexion
inferior PSIS
CP of seated sacro-iliac flexion
thumb pads
movement of seated sacro-iliac flexion
side with most movement is FIXED because PSIS will not release off of Sacrum
SCP of seated sacro-iliac axial rotation
PSIS-sacral interspace
CP of seated sacro-iliac axial rotation
finger tips of digits 2-4
ipsilateral movement of seated sacro-iliac axial rotation;
contralateral movement of seated sacro-iliac axial rotation
PSIS glides medially;
PSIS glides laterally
SCP of seated lumbo-pelvic lateral bend
PSIS-sacral interspace
CP of seated lumbo-pelvic lateral bend
fingers tips of digits 2-4
ipsilateral movement of seated lumbo-pelvic lateral bend;
contralateral movement of seated lumbo-pelvic lateral bend
PSIS glides medially;
PSIS glides laterally
SCP of leg fanning
PSIS-sacral interspace
CP of leg fanning
thumb pads
movement of leg fanning
Abduction results in med gliding of both PSISs and nutation(ant) of sacrum;
Adduction results in lateral gliding of both PSISs and counternutation of sacrum
SCP of sacro-iliac fluid motion
sup-med PSIS
CP of sacro-iliac fluid motion
hook of hamate on Doc’s SUPERIOR hand
movement of sacro-iliac fluid motion
if both legs lengthen simultaneously fixation is indicated on side being tested;
if only leg tested lengthens there is no fixation present
