Question
Answer
muscles of the SIJ?   glut max, glut medius, glut minimus, bicep femoris, iliacus, iliopsoas, piriformis, quadatus lumborum  
🗑
Standing forward flexion test   to determine hypomobility of the ilia on the sacrum, thumbs on each PSIS, + if one PSIS moves upward w/one thumb during standing trunk flexion  
🗑
what does the standing forward flexion test indicate   restricted mobility in the side that moves up, usually indicates the side of the lesion  
🗑
sitting forward flexion test   to determine if there is abnormal biomechanics of the ilium resulting in leg length discrepancy. + when one medial malleoli apears to lengthen or shorten as the patient does a long sit-up. thumbs monitor malleolli at the foot of the plinth.  
🗑
short-to-long on the sitting forward flexion test indicates?   posterior ilium rotation  
🗑
long-to-short leg on the sitting forward flexion test indicates?   anterior illium rotation  
🗑
sitting forward SIJ test, side that changes length usually correlates w/the involved or uninvolved side of the standing forward flexion test?   involved  
🗑
SI Gap & Compression test (may perform in sidelying)   to determine if pain is of the SI origin. + when SIJ pain as you approximate or separate the ilia, while the patient is supine.  
🗑
+ SI gap & compression test indicates?   anterior SI ligament sprain if there is pain during separation (gapping) & posterior SI lesion if pain w/ilia approximation (compression)  
🗑
leg length discrepancy testing   apparent leg length discrepancy  
🗑
patient sx are back pain sometimes w/radiculopathy, uneven iliac crests/ASIS/PSIS or rotation evident upon examination of ASIS & PSIS ....could be?   SIJ  
🗑
tx for SIJ   modalities, massage/manual, normalize hypoextensible mm tissue, jt mobs, muscle energy techniques, core stabilization exercise, mobility on stability exercises.  
🗑
exercise for SIJ   resistend R hip extension, (L hip flexion), direct technique: rotate ilium posteriorly, isometric hip add after correction & stg exercises, "shot gun" technique, SI belt,  
🗑
