The influence of pelvic rotation on clinical measurements of hip flexion and extension range of motion across sex and age
The purpose of this study was to identify the amount of pelvic rotation associated with hip motion during passive hip flexion and extension goniometric measurements. Cross-sectional study. University laboratory. One hundred healthy adults (males = 45, females = 55) aged 18–66 years participated. Cli...

Zusammenfassung: | The purpose of this study was to identify the amount of pelvic rotation associated with hip motion during passive hip flexion and extension goniometric measurements.
Cross-sectional study.
University laboratory.
One hundred healthy adults (males = 45, females = 55) aged 18–66 years participated.
Clinical range of motion measurements of hip flexion, and extension during the modified Thomas test, and pelvic sagittal position measured using a device, attached from the PSIS to ASIS, and a fluid-filled inclinometer.
When pelvic rotation was subtracted from the clinical measurements, hip flexion measurements were significantly reduced in both sexes (males: 110.8 ± 7.4 to 93.8 ± 7.8°, P |
