ROM Flashcards
What is the patient position for measuring hip flexion?
Supine
When measuring hip flexion, flex the hip forward, allowing the knee to relax, and grip the iliac crest and (ASIS/PSIS) to look for a posterior pelvic tilt. That indicates the end range of hip flexion.
ASIS
The axis of rotation is placed where when measuring hip flexion?
The greater trochanter of the femur
The stationary arm is parallel to what when measuring hip flexion?
The trunk
The moving arm is pointing towards what structure when measuring hip flexion?
The lateral epicondyle of the knee
What is the normal ROM for hip flexion?
120 degrees
What is the patient position for measuring hip extension?
Prone
The axis of rotation is placed where when measuring hip extension?
The greater trochanter of the femur
The stationary arm is parallel with what structure when measuring hip extension?
The trunk
The moving arm is pointing towards what structure when measuring hip extension?
The lateral epicondyle of the knee
What is the normal ROM for hip extension?
30 degrees
What is the patient position for measuring hip abduction?
Supine
The AOR is placed where when measuring hip abduction?
On the ipsilateral ASIS
The stationary arm is placed where when measuring hip abduction?
The contralateral ASIS
The moving arm is bisecting what structure when measuring hip abduction?
The thigh
What is the normal ROM for hip abduction?
45 degrees
What is the patient position for measuring hip internal rotation prone?
Prone
Where is the AOR for measuring hip internal rotation (prone)?
The patella
The stationary arm is perpendicular to what when measuring hip internal rotation (prone)?
The floor
