LOWER EXTREMITY ROM (ANATOMY) NOTES AND
VOCABULARIES!!
hip joint anatomy
Answers:- ball and socket joint
- articulation btwn convex head of femur and concave acetabulum of pelvis
what are the movements of the hip?
Answers:- flexion/extension
- abduction/adduction
- lateral and medial rotation (internal/external roation)
the hip is made up of what 3 fused bones?
,Answers:ilium, ischium, and pubis
these 3 bones ossify into one, the pelvis
each of these 3 contribute to the formation of the hip joint - acetabulum
what structure can we thank for providing stability in our hip joint?
Answers:fibrocartilaginous rim known as the acetabular rim which attaches to
margin of the acetabulum
it increases depth, thus bone stability
what 3 ligaments provide strength in the anterior capsule of the hip?
, Answers:iliofemoral (2 branches)
pubofemoral
iliofemoral is inverted in a "Y" shape and this provides reinforcement
how does anterior pelvic tilting affect hip motion?
Answers:allows for hip extension
how does posterior pelvic tilting affect hip motion?
Answers:allows for hip flexion
how does lateral pelvic tilting affect hip motion?
Answers:allows for hip adduction on high side and abduction on the lower side
how does circumduction of the pelvis affect hip motion?
