... test (FABERE test) Flexion/Abduction/External Rotation/Extension

Bring hip through these motions in order. Monitor quality of barrier (hard vs. soft; pain at barrier vs. pain throughout ROM)

“...” –pain throughout ROM, signals arthritic joint.

Barrier pain without capsular pattern suggests sacroiliac ligament pathology.
