16
Q
  • How is the Active SLR test performed?

- What is a positive test?

A
  • Assess resting symptoms, instruct patient to actively raise LE 6 inches. If painful, return to neutral and stabilize pelvis. Instruct patient to raise LE again.
  • Positive test is if stabilization relieves symptoms.
17
Q

What elimination tests are used to rule out Pelvic Ring Fracture?

A

-Hip Flexion Test

18
Q

-How is the Hip Flexion Test performed?

A
  • Examiner instructs patient to perform active SLR.

- Positive test is concordant pain or inability to raise leg.

19
Q

What elimination tests are used to rule out Bursitis, Abscess, or Tumor in Buttock Region?

A

-Sign of the Buttock

20
Q
  • How is the Sign of the Buttock performed?

- What is a positive test?

A
  • Examiner provides passive SLR to point of pain or restriction. Examiner then passively flexes knee, then flexes the hip further.
  • Positive test is hip motion restriction or same pain continues with last step.
