Standing Flexion Test for Sacroiliac Dysfunction

The standing flexion test assesses for lumbosacral, sacroiliac, or pelvic dysfunction.
The examiner stands behind the patient and places hands on the iliac crests with thumbs over the inferior notch of the posterior superior iliac spine. The patient slowly flexes forward.
If the posterior superior iliac spine moves more cephalad on one side, the test is positive, indicating dysfunction.

Seated Flexion Test for Sacroiliac Dysfunction In the seated flexion test the patient should have their feet flat on the floor, shoulder width apart. The examiner notes the PSIS (posterior superior iliac spine) positioning on the patient flexed forward. If the PSIS moves more cephalad on one side, the test is positive, indicating dysfunction.

Trendelenburg Test for Hip Stability The Trendelenburg test assesses for hip stability The examiner sits behind the patient and places thumbs in the posterior superior iliac spines and hands on the iliac crests to check for level height. The patient then stands on one leg with raised unsupported leg flexed at the knee and hip. In normal function, the unsupported pelvis elevates slightly, indicating the gluteus medius muscle appropriately abducts the supported hip. If the pelvis drops on the unsupported side or remains level, it's considered a positive Trendelenburg, indicating a weak gluteus or intra-articular pathology in the supported hip.

Sacroiliac Distraction Test The examiner applies downward and lateral pressure to the bilateral ASIS , the effect of which is to apply a distraction force to the anterior sacroiliac joint. The test is positive if it reproduces pain symptoms, indicating SI Joint injury dysfunction. 水田有樹 @PT_yuu_mizu628 #Sacroiliac #Distraction #Test #SIJoint #Joint #clinical #video #physicalexam #hip #msk #sports #orthopedics

Stork Test The stork test evaluates for a stress fracture of the pars interarticularis in the lumbar spine. The patient places hands on hips and stands on one leg, and hyper-extends the spine. Pain in the lumbar region is considered a positive test. Video via @open_michigan #Stork #Test #Lumbar #spine #PhysicalExam #clinical #video #sports #msk #orthopedics

Thomas' Test for Hip Flexure Contracture Thomas' Test assesses for hip flexure contracture. One hip is maximally flexed to the patient's chest, flattening the lumbar spine. If the contralateral leg flexes at the knee and rises off the table, the test is positive.

FABER (Patrick's) Test for Hip and Sacroiliac Pathology Patrick's or Faber Test can be performed to evaluate for hip and sacroiliac pathology. One leg is flexed, abducted, and externally rotated in position, resting the foot on the other knee. If the leg does not lower into a position parallel to the exam table, there may be a hip flexor contracture or protective iliopsoas spasm. Pressure on the knee with counter-pressure on the opposite pelvic brim may elicit pain at the hip or sacroiliac joint.
