Position and Nerve
Hip- FLX

Nerve: Sural nerve
SLR4 (PIP)
Position and Nerve
Hip- FLX and IR
Knee- EXT
Ankle- PF
Foot IV
Nerve: Common peroneal nerve
Cross SLR (well Leg)
Assess
Nerve root (disc prolapse)
Bilateral SLR
Examiner: lifts both of the legs by flexing the pts hips until the pt complains of pain or tightnes. Becuase both legs are lifted the pelvis is not stabilized, so on hip FLX the pelvis is freer to rotate, therby decreasing the stress on the neurological tissue.
- if the test causes pain before 70dg of hip FLX= Sacroiliac joints
- if the test causes pain after 70dg of hip FLX= lumbar spine area
