what is the center edge of the acetabulum?
a line connecting the lateral rim of acetabulum and the center of the femoral head 35-38 degrees
5
what happens with the CE angle is smaller?
coverage of the head decreases and there is a higher risk of superior dislocation
6
what is the most common type of hip dislocation?
congenital (CE malalignment)
7
what kind of baby is more likely to have hip problems?
breach babies
8
what is anteversion?
the magnitude of the anterior orientation
9
what is the risk of having anteversion?
increase risk of anterior dislocation
10
what is the primary flexor of the hip?
iliopsoas muscle
11
where is the true pelvis located?
contained in the sacral-pelvic region
12
what main feature differentiates female from male pelvis?
women have a softer sciatic notch
13
what is the positioning of the femur?
head faces medially, superiorly and anteriorly
14
what is it called when you decrease the angle of inclination (<125)?
coxa vara (goes outward)
15
what is it called when you increase the angle of inclination (>125)?
coxa valga (goes inward)
16
when can you best view the angle of torsion?
when looking down at the length of the femur
17
what does the angle of torsion do with age?
decreases, starts at 40 deg as and infant and decreases to 15 degrees as an adult
18
how does excessive anteversion present in the clinic?
intoeing gate
19
in what position does the hip joint fit together best?
frog-leg position
20
does the hip joint capsule include the trochanter?
no
21
what is the zona orbicularis?
collar of deep circular fibers of the hip joint
22
which ligament provides blood vessels to the head of the femur?
ligamentum teres
23
which is the strongest ligament of the hip?
ileofemoral ligament
-fan shaped
-inverted Y
-anterior
-prevents hyperextension
24
what ligaments form the anterior support for the hip?
ileofemoral
pubofemoral
25
which ligament forms the posterior aspect of the hip joint?
ischiofemoral
26
what limits hip adduction?
tensor fascia lata (iliotibial band)
27
what is anterior pelvic tilt called?
flexion of the hip
28
what is posterior pelvic tilt called?
extension
29
what is it called when you move the pelvis out and down?
abduction
30
what is ti called when you move the pelvis up and in?
adduction
31
which muscle keeps the opposite pelvis level during gate?
gluteus medius (originates on ilium and inserts on greater trochanter)-causes abduction in open chain
32
what happens in gluteus medius weakness?
every time you step on the leg with the weakness (left), the opposite hip drops (right)
33
when do the hip muscles work best?
in the middle of their contraction range or on slight stretch
34
when do two joint muscles generate the greatest amount of force?
when not required to shorten over both joints simultaneously
35
what is the O/I of iliopsoas?
O: wide from iliac fossa, sacrum, IV discs of T12-L4
I: lesser trochanter of femur
36
what is the O/I of rectus femoris?
two joint muscle
O: AInferior IS
I: tibial tuberosity
_most effective when knee is flexed
37
what is the O/I of sartorius?
O: ASIS
I: upper medial tibia
38
what is the O/I of tensor fascia lata?
O: lateral iliac crest
I: iliotibial tract (band)
39
what might the iliotibial tract be used for?
transplant material
40
what are the hip flexors?
iliopsoas
rectus femoris
tensor fascia lata
sartorius
41
what are the hip adductors?
pectinate
gracilis

42
what is the O/I of pectineus?
O: pubis
I: linea aspera
43
what is the O/I of gracilis?
O: symphysis pubis
I: medial tibia
44
what is the O/I of the adductors?
O: inferior ramus of pubis
I: linea aspera
45
what are the hip extensors?
gluteus maximus
ham strings (two joint muscles)
46
what is the O/I of the gluteus maximus?
O: sacrum, post ligaments
I: gluteul tuberosity of femur
47
what is the O/I of the hamstrings?
O: ischial tuberosity
I: head of fibular and lateral tibia (biceps femoris)
I: medial side of the tibia (semitendinosis/membranosus)
48
what are the hip abductors?
gluteus medius
gluteus minimus
49
what is the O/I of the gluteus medius?
O: lateral wing of ileum
I: greater trochanter
50
what is the O/I of the gluteus minimus?
O: outer surface of ilium and sciatic notch
I: greater trochanter
