Hip dysplasia

acetabular shell, minus 3 mm cobalt-chrome femoral head. ANESTHESIA: General endotracheal. COMPLICATIONS: None. ESTIMATED BLOOD LOSS: 250-mL. INDICATIONS: [Name] is a 76-year-old female with a long history of right hip pain, unresponsive to conservative therapy. She was diagnosed with right hip degenerative arthritis and was admitted, after failing conservative treatment, for operative evaluation. OPERATIVE PROCEDURE IN DETAIL: After informed consent was obtained, the patient was brought…

A hip fracture occurs when the UQ (upper quadrant) of a femur bone endures a break. To cause a fracture, one must fall or have a direct blow to the side of the hip. Many medical conditions such as osteoporosis, or cancer can affect the bone so much so that the bone weakens from loss of tissue making bones fragile enough to break even from standing and twisting. However, a hip dislocation occurs when the femur bone is forced out of the ball and socket joint. To dislocate a hip a fall from extreme…

The range of Motion and strength in hips normal completes the whole arc of movements against gravity and resistance without s/s difficulty. ROM and Knee bend normally against gravity, resistance testing deferred due to edema, erythema and popliteal wound. Unable to complete the whole arc of ankle rotation due to pain with movement and edema. Pedal push-pull motion intact, push against full resistance to bottom of foot done without difficulty, equal strength bilaterally. Flexion of foot…

due to subluxation of his hips at this time, however LE tone was observed as high extensor tone. The tone is low in his trunk, neck and head making moving against gravity difficult. At points Aaron presents with extension synergy pattern when startled or excited. His posture is asymmetrical as he keeps his head turned to the left and flexed down.…

11. Extensor pollicis brevis a. The extensor pollicis brevis originates on the posterior distal surface of the radius, and inserts on the proximal posteriolateral surface of the thumb (AnatomyExpert, 2014). b. Its main functions are to extend the metacarpal bone and the 1st phalanx (AnatomyExpert, 2014). 12. Abductor pollicis longus a. The abductor pollicis longus originates on the middle posterior surface of the ulna and radius, and inserts onto the proximal posteriolateral end of the 1st…

Femur, the bone of thigh, also known as os femoris, is the longest and strongest bone of human body. The head of the femur articulates with the acetabulum of hip bone forming the ball and socket variety of synovial joint-the hip joint, whereas the distal part of the femur articulates with the tibia and patella forming the knee joint. The anatomy of the proximal end of the femur, in recent years had received the much deserved attention because of the importance of early treatment of congenital…

Functional reach is defined as the distance between arm’s length and maximal forward reach while maintaining a fixed base of support in standing.(Duncan et al, 1990) The Functional Reach Test was designed to assess standing balance in ambulatory patients; however, the Modified Functional Reach Test (mFRT) was designed to assess sitting balance in individuals who are unable to stand, specifically individuals with spinal cord injury. mFRT assesses an individual’s ability to reach forward and…

Simultaneously, the right arm then goes forward while the left arm swings back to his side. Then the cycle alternatingly goes on—the flexion of his hip and knee, then the lifting of his foot forward. His heel will touch the ground followed by his toe, then the arm opposite to the leg in front would swing forward. I assumed that his strides would be larger because of his height, but it was average…

medial gastrocnemius, medial hamstring complex, gracilis, sartorius, popliteus muscles, the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and vastus medialus oblique ((NASM), 2013). As for the client’s upper body, the assessments presented that she had a tight hip flexor and abdominal complex, as well as a tight latissimus dorsi, teres major, and pectoral muscles ((NASM), 2013). She also showed to have a weak muscles in her mid and lower trapezius, rhomboids, rotator cuff, and erector spinae ((NASM),…

The launching position consists of the following movements: The abduction of the shoulders and the arms, the backward rotation of the spine, the extension of the writs, and the flexion of the hips (Van Such, 2016). For a right handed batter, the left shoulder joint will be adducted toward the body. The right shoulder joint will be flexed with the elbow up in the air and the scapula is abducting. Abduction occurs with the scapula because the…
