Pelvis Flashcards
Bony pelvis region
. Ant. And post. Pelvic ligaments are strong, thick ligaments favoring stability over mobility
. Key muscles: psoas, rectus femoris, sartorius, hamstrings, piriformis, gluteus Maximus and medius
. Key ligaments are sacrotuberous ligaments
Most common idiosyncratic dysfunction
. Right anterior innominate
. Left post. Innominate is second most common
Secondary effects of ant. Innominate
. ant ilium may keep corresponding hamstring tight and irritable
Posterior innominate secondary effects
. Post. Ilium can produce medial knee pain through stretch on sartorius muscle or ant. Knee pain through rectus femoris
Pubic symphysis
. Fibro-cartilaginous articulation
. Dysfunction named as sup. Or inf. Depending on position of pubic tubercles relative to each other
Anterior ileum produces ___ pubes
Inferior
Secondary effects of pubic symphysis dysfunction
. Related to dysfunction of pelvic floor musculature
. Asymmetric muscle tension in this area can produce dysuria, pelvic pain, and congestion of pelvic viscera
. Can have adductor muscle dysfunction and Jones tender points locates on pubes
How capsular pattern at hip joint effect movement?
. Limits flexion, internal rotation, and abduction
. Extension not as effected
. External rotation is not affected
FADIR test
. Test to detect femoroactabular impingement
Bursitis
. Occurs in hip and pelvic regions
. Greater trochanteric, psoas, and ischial
. Develops because of restricted ROM in lumbar, pelvic, and hip regions
. In trochanteric passive hip external rotation is limited
.
Somatic dysfunction of innominate, pubes, or hip may be ____
Isolated
. Due to forces acting from above or below
Thoracolumbar dysfunctions
. creates symptoms in pelvis
. Mechanical or reflexive
. Can affect sympathetic nn. To pelvic viscera or lower extremity
Innominate rotate ant./post. In ____plane
Sagittal
. Goes about the inf. Transverse acis of sacrum
Pelvis rotates forward and backward in ___ plane
Horizontal
Tight hamstrings
. Tether innominate and prevent ant. Rotation
. Compensations: rounding of spine or bending knees as you touch toes
