Ultimate Review Deck Flashcards
How do we rule in SIJ?
Gaeslen’s test
Sacral thrust
Compression
Distraction
Thigh Thrust
How do we rule out SIJ
Gaeslen’s test
FABER
Compression
Distraction
Thigh thrust
What test is this?
which leg is being tested?
Gaeslen’s test
Bottom leg
Which part of the SIJ do we treat first, hypo or hypermobile?
How do we find out which side is hypo and which is hyper
hypomobile
seated or standing flexion test
In this test which side moves more?
The hypomobile side
In the long sitting test which side has a posterior innominate?
Posterior innominate- Longer leg
What are the steps of the active SLR test?
- Lift leg -> causes pain
- Lift leg w/ compression -> No pain? Form Closure
- Lift leg w/ core activation -> No pain? Force Closure
What SIJ problem does this fix?
Can fix general SIJ problems, but mainly for anterior innominate
If you palpate someone’s SIJ and you feel the ASIS lower and the PSIS higher, what is this?
Anterior Innominate
You palpate the SIJ and you feel the ASIS and the PSIS higher, what is this?
Up slip
What is this correcting?
What is the proper positioning for the patient’s leg
Upslip correction
Ext+ IR+ Abd
If a patient is isometrically using their hip flexors, which way are they pulling their innominate
into anterior rotation, fixing a posterior innominate
What is this fixing?
What is the therapist essentially doing?
Posterior innominate
Providing PA glides to one side of the SIJ while that leg is in EXT, the other leg is in hip flexion which is locking out the opposite side SIJ
What is this for?
Whole hip “reset button”
What is this improving?
What is the therapist hand motion?
Improves IR, Adduction
Scoop -> lateral distraction
What is this improving
improve hip flexion
scoop -> posterior-lateral mob
What is this improving
improves hip ext
What is the progression of tests to rule in a labral pathology
FADIR -> Hip Quadrant -> Hip Scour
another option: Fitzgerald (anterior labrum)
How do you test for a stress fracture of the hip or femur?
Patellar-pubic Percussion test
Listen on the pubic symphysis while tapping on each patella
less noise than other side = fx
How do you preform the fitzgerald test?
What is it for?
Passively move hip from FABER into Ext + IR + Adduction
Anterior Labral Tear
What does FADIR test for?
Femoral Acetabular Impingement
What is C- Sign
Indicates possible FAI/Labral pathology
Where will someone point if SIJ is likely the problem
At PSIS (Fortin’s Sign)
How do you preform Hip Quadrant/ Hip Scour
Quadrant - Flexion/Abduction/ER -> Flexion Adduction/IR (Bring hip around the world)
Scour- Add compression
What is craigs test?
For femoral anteversion/retroversion
Palpate greater troch and find angle of leg off of parallel
normal is 10-15 of IR
15+ is Anteversion
<10 is retroversion
Altman’s clinical criteria for hip OA
5 components
Hip Pain
IR Less than 15
Pain with IR
Morning Stiffness up to 60 minutes
Age 50+
Sutlive CPR for Presence of Hip OA
5 components
Squatting increases symptoms
Scour test with adduction causes groin or lateral hip pain
active hip flex -> lateral pain
active hip ext -> pain
Passive hip IR less than 25 degrees
What is this improving?
What is the therapist doing?
Improving hip IR
Holding onto leg, adding PA mob to opposite SIJ
What motions is this helping?
ER/ABD
use when pt has positive FABER, but does not have reproduction of symptoms with treatment
Contraindications for manual therapy
Infection
Febrile state
Acute Circulatory condition
Malignancy
Open Wound
Fracture
Hematoma
Advanced DM
Hypersensitivity
Inappropriate end feel
RA (during exacerbation)
Cellulitis
Constant Severe Pain
Extensive Radiation of pain
3 signs of a positive Neurodynamic test?
Reproduces patient symptoms
Test altered by movement of distant bodypart
Test differences from side to sid e
Contraindication for neurodynamic mobilizations
Recent repaired nerve
Malignancy or any compression of nerve

Antalgic gait/ trendelenberg sign
Slipped Femoral Capital Epiphysis
Urgent care referral, they can walk into the ER on crutches themselves
30-50 year old

How can a patient self-treat limited hip IR?
Rock back onto legs in quadruped with legs in slight IR
How to progress exercises for hip OA
Mobility -> Open chain exercises -> Close chain functional exercises
