The effects of hip abduction on sciatic nerve biomechanics during terminal hip flexion
Terminal hip flexion contributes to increased strain in peripheral nerves at the level of the hip joint. The effects of hip abduction and femoral version on sciatic nerve biomechanics are not well understood. A decrease in sciatic nerve strain will be observed during terminal hip flexion and hip abduction, independent of femoral version. Six un-embalmed human cadavers were utilized. Three Diffe...
متن کاملSciatic nerve palsy after total hip replacement.
We report a case of sciatic nerve palsy following total hip replacement which has lead to a novel hypothesis to account for this complication.
متن کاملHip Muscle Activity during Isometric Contraction of Hip Abduction
[Purpose] This study aimed to determine the effect of varying hip flexion angle on hip muscle activity during isometric contraction in abduction. [Subjects] Twenty-seven healthy men (mean age=21.5 years, SD=1.2) participated in this study. [Methods] Surface electromyography (EMG) was recorded of the upper portion of the gluteus maximus (UGM), lower portion of the gluteus maximus (LGM), tensor f...
متن کاملStrain on the human sciatic nerve in vivo during movement of the hip and knee.
Injuries to the sciatic nerve are an occasional complication of surgery to the hip and acetabulum, and traction is frequently the causative mechanism. In vitro and animal experiments have shown that increased tensile strain on peripheral nerves, when applied for prolonged periods, impairs nerve function. We have used video-extensometry to measure strain on the human sciatic nerve during total h...
متن کاملThe mobilising effects of repeated measurement on hip flexion.
A test of flexibility, so widely used that it deserves to be called the classical measure, is hip flexion. It has featured in a variety of guises as the toe-touch test (Weber and Kraus, 1949; Buxton, 1957; Larson, 1974) the sit and reach test (Wells and Dillon, 1952), the femoral trunk angle (Troup, Hood and Chapman, 1968) and supine leg lift (Tanigawa, 1972). Harris (1969) reports on its high ...
