    • +LR = 3.2-1.24
    • -LR = 0.5-0.94
  2. clinical implications
    • best used with clusters
18
Q

postive test for compression test

A

concordant pain provocation

19
Q

research properties and clinical implications for compression test

A
  1. Research
    • +LR = 1.6-3.95
    • -LR = 0.4-0.92
  2. Clinical Implications
    1. best used with cluster
20
Q

positive test for Gaenslen’s Test

A

concordant pain provocation

21
Q

research properities and clinical implications for the Gaenslen’s Test

A
  1. Research
    • +LR → 1.02-2.29
    • -LR → 0.65-1.11
  2. Clinical Implications
    • best used with cluster
22
Q

positive test for the Sacral Thrust test

A

concordant pain provocation

23
Q

research properties and clinical implications for the Sacral Thrust Test

A
  1. Research
    • +LR → 0.74-4.39
    • -LR → 0.49-1.62
  2. Clinical Implications
    • best used with cluster
    • avoid placing force far superior, as this will likely extend the L/S and alter the test
24
Q

postive test for Patrick’s Test/FABER Test

A

concordant POSTERIOR/SIJ-AREA pain provocation

25
Q

research properties and clinical implications for Patrick’s Test/FABER Test

    • -LR → 0.64-1.94
  2. Clinical Implications
    • best used with cluster
    • careful not to confuse with hip distribution of pain
26
Q

positive test for resisted hip abduction

A

SIJ pain provocation

27
Q

research properties and clinical implications for the hip abduction resisted test

A
  1. Research
    • +LR → 2.0
    • -LR → 0.80

Q

T/F: the long sitting test has strong evidence to support it

A

FALSE
poor reliability and validity

use with caution

33
Q

Positive test for Fortin Finger Test

A

pt can localize the are of pain with one finger

the indicated area is within 1cm inferiomedial to the PSIS

the patient is consistent with localizing the same area with both trials

34
Q

postiive test for Gillet Test

A

the PSIS ipsilateral to the lifted LE does not change position or migrates superiorly

35
Q

Intervention planning for SIJ

A
  1. Educate
  2. Reduce Pain
    • manual
    • exercise
  3. Improve Stability
    • internal → pelvic stabilizer coordination training
    • external → belt
  4. Improve Functional Activity Performance and Partipicipation
36
Q

prognostic factors for Antepartum populations

A
  1. History of pregnancy
  2. Increased BMI
  3. smoking
  4. work dissatisfaction
  5. lack of belief of improvement
37
Q

T/F: a lot of evidence supports the use of belts

A

FALSE

conflicting evidence with grade D recommendation

38
Q

support belt utilization

A
  1. placement at the level of ASIS has demostrated increased resistance to vibration forces at SIJ
  2. +Active SLR Test = positive prognostic indicator for use of support belt
39
Q

Pelvic Floor Exercise

A
  1. instruct how to perform
  2. gradually increase timing of isometrics
    • gluteals and thigh muscles relaxed
  3. begin to work into contraction during daily activities
40
Q

What does research say about joint manipulation and SIJ?

A

clinical improvement reported with intervention

position of SIJ not altered with manipulation

41
Q

List joint mobilizations for the pelvic girdle and lumbpelvic spine

A
  1. Oscillations and Sustained Hold mobilizations
    • innominate anterior rotation
    • innominate posterior rotation
  2. Thurst manipulations
    • long leg distraction
    • supine lumbopelvic thrust manipulation
  3. Other
    • adduction isometric of the pubic symphysis
