What are the prime movers Of hip flexor motion?

Rectus Femoris, Sartoris, Iliopsoas are the prime movers 

ROM: 0-120


200

Inferior from the greater trochanter


Ischial Tuberosity 

200

Traumatic hematoma on the iliac wing due to crushing injury, contact sports. 


Iliac Crest Contusions 

200

Long sit test

Tests for long leg discrepancy & rotation of pelvis

200

What is cadence/ function of cadence? 

Number of steps per unit of time, Normal is 100-115 steps per minute, Cultural and social variations



200

What are the prime movers of hip extension? Also with Gionometry used on hip extension? 

Glutues Maximus, Hamstring 

ROM: 0-30

Patient is lying on prone with legs together, putting giometery to hip and measure. 

300

Dimples in your low back, lateral to sacrum 

PSIS 

300

Impact to thigh consistent compressing against the hard surface of the femur.

Quadricep Contusion 


300

Thomas Test

Tests for Hip Flexor Tightness

300

What is Velocity/speed? 

Distance covered by the body in unit time, usually measured in meters per second, instantaneous velocity varies during the gait cycle. Average velocity (m/min) = step length (m) x cadence (steps/min). Avg walking speed is 80m /min.


300

What prime movers are for hip abduction?

ROM: 0-45 

Patient is supine, giometery is aligned with the midline of patella.

A bump on the outside of the hip 


Greater Trochanter

Inflammation of bursa at the greater trochanter occurs over a period of time (bursa fluid-filled sac near a joint).

Trochanteric Bursitis 


400

Ober Test

Tests for IT Band Syndrome

400

Calcaneal Gait MOI and Defintion? 

Walking on one's heel, causes shortage in duration of the single limb support. 

MOI/ Cause: Characterized by weak triceps surae strength combined with limited ankle plantarflexion at terminal stance, not allowing adequate power generation. 

400

What are the prime movers of hip adduction?  

Adductor Longus, Adductor Brevis, Adductor Magnus, Gracilis

ROM: 0-15/20
