9
Q
Describe the acetabulum
A
- faces anterior, inferior, and lateral
- fossa is not usually in contact with the femur
- the superior & anterior portions have the greatest cartilage thickness which reflects loading patterns during gait
10
Q
Describe the center edge angle
A
- how much does the acetabulum cover the femoral head
- normal: 35 degrees
11
Q
Describe lower center edge angle
A
- the acetabulum is not covering as much of the femoral head
- consequences include less joint compaction during normal loading, can dislocate, less of an interface can increase contact pressures, stability problems, exposure, & can wear and tear
12
Q
Describe high center edge angle problems
A
- mobility problems
- decrease ROM
- impingement issues
13
Q
What motions does the iliofemoral ligament limit

Q
What motions does the ischiofemoral ligament limit
A
- limits internal rotation
- extension
- inferior fibers limit flexion
15
Q
Describe what happens to the ligaments during hip extension
A
- hip extension creates a spring like mechanism of the ischiofemoral & iliofemoral ligaments
- can use passive restraint for hip control by relying on ligamentous structures
16

17
Q
What is the close packed position for the hip joint

- periformis
- some external rotation muscles
26
What limits hip external rotation

27
Describe pelvic of femoral rotation in the sagittal plane

- posterior tilt: about 10 to 20 degrees
28
Describe pelvic on femoral rotation in the frontal plane
- about 30 degrees of abduction
29
Describe pelvic on femoral rotation in the transverse plane
- internal rotation moves the opposite iliac crest anteriorly
30
Define nulling
- means to off set something
31
Define contradirectional
- when the pelvis tilts forward the upper spine is moving the opposite way for relative joint angles
