Presentation Transcript

  1. Thigh, Hip and Pelvis Acute Care Lab Spring ‘10

  2. Terms • Adduction • Move toward the midline of the body (medial) • ABduction • Move away from the midline of the body (lateral) • Flexion • Move the extremity up (anteriorly) • Extension • Move the extremity back (posteriorly)

  3. Anatomy • Pelvis • You ‘hips’ • Head of femur sits in the acetabulum for ambulation • Muscle attachments • Femur • Quadriceps muscles (anterior) • Hamstring muscles (posterior)

  4. Pelvis • Made up of three bones • Ilium • Ischium • Pubic • Serves as origin for muscles

  5. Hip Muscles • Hip flexor • Flexes the hip • Commonly injured in sprinters, runners • Hip adductors • Adduct the hip • ‘pulled groin’ • pain on the medial aspect of the leg • Hip abductors • Abduct the hip • Pain on the lateral aspect of the leg

  6. Hip muscles

  7. Hip flexor

  8. Hip Adductors

  9. Hip Abductors

  10. Femur • Quadriceps muscles • Flexes the knee • Commonly strained • Hamstring muscles • Extends the knee • Also commonly strained

  11. Quadriceps Muscles

  12. Hamstrings

  13. Hip Spica- Adductors • Standing, hip in slight flexion, leg in slight internal rotation • Lateral to medial (6” double) • Wrap two to three times around upper leg • Wrap around the pelvis, pulling across the abdomen and torso and back to the leg • Repeat until wrap is gone • Secure wrap with tape

  14. Adductor wrap

  15. Hip flexor wrap • Standing, hip in slight flexion • Medial to lateral (6” double) • Beginning at the quadriceps wrap two to three anchors • Pulling medial to lateral • At the waist, wrap around pulling across the abdomen, torso and back to the hip • Repeat until wrap is gone • Secure wrap with tape

  16. Hip Flexor Wrap

  17. Quadriceps wrap • Standing, hip in slight flexion • Medial to lateral (6” single) • Begin at the distal aspect of the leg • Anterior aspect of the leg • Pulling medial to lateral, overlap by half • Pulling up the leg • Distal to proximal • Continue until wrap is gone • Secure with tape

  18. Hamstring wrap • Standing, hip in slight flexion • Medial to lateral (6” single) • Begin at the distal aspect of the leg • Posterior aspect of the leg • Pulling medial to lateral, overlap by half • Pulling up the leg • Distal to proximal • Continue until wrap is gone • Secure with tape
