23
Q

function and shape of labrum

A

deepens the joint cavity and increases concavity

horseshoe shaped

24
Q

what muscle causes anterior pelvic tilt primarily

A

illiopsoas

25
Q

what two muscles force couple to cause posterior pelvic tilt

A

rectus abdominal roll pelvis up

glutes counter

26
Q

three pelvis on hip motions

A

anterior posterior tilt
lateral tilt
protraction and retraction in transverse plane

27
Q

normal ROM of flex and ex of hip

A

Flex: 130
Extension: 10-20 degrees

28
Q

Normal ROM of ad/ab of hip

A

45 abduction

30-40 adduction

29
Q

normal ROM of ER and IR of the hip

A

ER: 0-35
IR: 0-45

30
Q

what is the anatomical axis of the hip and what is the mechanical axis of the hip

A

anatomical: line through the shaft
mechanical: line from knee joint centre to the hip joint centre

31
Q

resting and closed position of the hip

A

resting: 30 degree flexion, 30 abduction, slight er
closed: full extension, IR and abduction

32
Q

what parts of the labrum are innervation what parts are vascular

A

innervated: superficial layer
vascular: superficial 1/3

33
Q

three major bursa

A

over greater trochanter
over the iliopsoas
iliopectineal

34
Q

where does the iliopectineal bursa lie and what part of the hip does it communicate with

A

overlies the anterior aspect of the hip joint and the pubis and lies beneath the Iliopsoas muscle as it crosses in front of the hip joint.

This bursa often communicates with the hip joint anteriorly through a space between the Pubofemoral ligaments

35
Q

where does the hip capsule attached proximally and distally

A

proximally: acetabulum, labrum, transverse ligament
distally: above Trochanteric crest and intertrochanteric line

36
Q

attachment and coverage of ilofemoral ligament

A

AIIS and acetabula rim, intertrochanteric line

covers anteriorly and superiorly

37
Q

what movements does the iliofemoral ligament prevents

and its other two functions

A

upper fibres prevents adduction with extension and external rotation
lower fibres stretched by abduction with extension and external rotation

helps screw femoral head into acetabulum
prevents posterior pelvic motion and hyperextension in standing

38
Q

attachments and coverage of the ischiofemoral ligament

A

ischial part of acetabula rim and medial greater trochanter

covered posterior femoral neck

39
Q

what movement does the ischiofemoral ligament prevent

A

hyperextension, abduction and medial rotation

40
Q

attachments and coverage of pubofemoral ligament

A

pubic bone and iliofemoral portion of capsule and intertrochanteic line

41
Q

what movements does the pub-femoral ligament prevent

A

overabduction, extension and lateral rotation

42
Q

function of ligamentous teres

A

guide for obturator artery and nerves

43
Q

lateral rotators -list them

A
piriformis 
superior gemellus 
obturator internus
inferior gemellus 
obturator externus 
Quadratus
44
Q

three important kinesiology concepts for hip movements

A

line of pull and leverage affecting musculature
one vs two joint muscles
CKC or OKC motion

45
Q

how much of their resting length can muscles contract to before cramping

A

70%

46
Q

when position is best force for a muscle (two joint)

A

one joint is lengthened and one is shortened

47
Q

what muscle is the move powerful hip flexor

A

iliopsoas

48
Q

what muscle is most power hip extensor

A

gluteus maximus

49
Q

what muscle group will assist hamstring with hip extension when the hip is in flexion and under resistance

A

adductors

50
Q

when do adductors assist in hip flexion

A

against resistance and low angles of hip flexion

51
Q

what muscle is the strongest hip abductor

A

gluteus medius

52
Q

what do abductors do for the hip in CKC

A

stabilize against hip drop/hike

53
Q

what do adductors function to do in CKC

A

stabilize the hips against drop/hike

does Power of internal rotators change throughout ROM?

A

yes. 3x more toque when hip flexed past 90 than when hip is extended
