Q

Extension Quadrant Testing

A
  1. stand w/ equal weight
  2. instruct pt to lean back, rotate, and side-flex toward one side
  3. combined motion of ext., rotation, side flexion

**positive test is when pt’s pain is reproduced

  2. clinician raises leg to point of symptom reproduction
  3. slightly lower leg and foot into DF
17
Q

Femoral Nerve Tension Test

A
  1. pt prone w/ PT one hand on PSIS
  2. move knee into flexion until onset of symptoms
  3. move foot into DF/PF or tell pt to move head
  4. can implement hip ext.
18
Q

FAIR Test

A
  1. pt sidelying
  2. 90° hip flexion, max. adduction, knee flex. to 90°
  3. keep hips stacked
  4. internally rotate
19
Q

Pace Test

A
  1. pt sitting at EOT
  2. PT places hands on lateral aspects of knees and asks pt to push hands apart
20
Q

Instability Catch Sign

A
  1. pt standing
  2. bend body forward as much as possible then return to standing
21
Q

Pain Provocation w/ PA Mobility

A
  1. pt prone
  2. thumb pad to thumb grip, put pressure perpendicular to spinous process of lumbar spine.
  3. proximal to distal
  4. positive when get to painful joint
22
Q

Prone Instability Test

A
  1. pt bent over on table
  2. PT performs PA spring on low back to elicit pain using pisiform grip
  3. pt lifts legs off table
  4. positive test if symptoms go away
23
Q

Stork or Gillet Test

A

PT places fingers/thumb/hands on pt PSIS and tells them to march. marching leg/thumb should dip down. positive if thumb doesn’t slip down

24
Q

Thigh Thrust (Ostagaard Test, 4p Test, Sacrotuberous Stress Test, POSH Test)

A
  1. pt supine
  2. PT stands opposite of painful side (i.e. if painful side is R then PT stands L)
  3. painful hip flexed to 90
  4. PT places hand under butt
  5. press down on femur
  6. positive test is if pain arrives during test
25
Q

Gapping Test

A
  1. pt supine
  2. cross arms and put pressure on ASIS
  3. hold pressure for 30sec, then vigorous force
  4. positive is obvi when patient has pain
26
Q

Sacral Thrust Test

A
  1. pt prone
  2. palpate 2nd or 3rd spinous process of sacrum
  3. use pisiform to put pressure on S3
  4. 6 thrusts of strong downward force
27
Q

Approximation Test

A
  1. pt sidelying w/ painful side facing up (not lying on it)
  2. PT cups iliac crest on painful side and apply downward pressure
  3. hold force for 30sec then vigorous force
28
Q

Gaenslen’s Test

A

think modified thomas stretch

  1. 6 thrusts of force on knee while pushing non painful leg into flexion
