Study Notes

Muscle Groups for Hip Motion

Two muscle groups involved: gluteal muscles and hamstrings.
The gluteus maximus is the strongest and thickest in the hip region, aided by posterior fibers of the gluteus medius and minimus.
Hamstrings' effectiveness in hip movement is dependent on knee position; knee locking enhances hip extension, acting against the quadriceps.
The adductor magnus also functions as a hip extensor.

Hip Extensors and Their Actions

Extensors vary in function based on their position relative to the anteroposterior axis.
Above the axis: combined abduction and extension by posterior fibers of gluteal muscles.
Below the axis: extension and adduction primarily by gluteus maximus, hamstrings, and posterior adductors.
Hip extensors stabilize the pelvis in the anteroposterior direction.

Pelvic Tilt and Center of Gravity

Retroversion of the pelvis moves the center of gravity (CG) behind the hip line, stabilized by the iliofemoral ligament.
CG position over the hip center indicates unstable equilibrium; anterior pelvic tilt moves the CG forward, requiring contraction of hamstrings to realign the pelvis.
Retroversion: ligament tension; Anterior version: muscle tension from the hamstrings.

Ligamentary Considerations in Hip Extension

Extension wraps ligaments around the femoral neck, creating tension when the femur is stationary.
Close-packed position reinforces stability through ligament tension.

Adduction Mechanics

Adduction brings the lower limb inward towards the body's midline.
Engaged muscles include pelvi-trochanteric groups and various adductors.
Adduction causes tension in the horizontal ligament fibers, especially in iliofemoral and pubofemoral ligaments, while ischiofemoral is relaxed.

Internal Rotation (IR)

Internal rotation shifts the foot outward with a range of 30 to 40 degrees, involving specific muscle groups like the anterior gluteal, sartorius, and tensor fascia latae (TFL).
In moderate internal rotation, obturator externus and pectineus lose their external rotation capacity.
Internal rotation leads to tension variations in ligaments around the hip joint.

Muscle Action Inversion

Muscles have primary or secondary actions that change depending on joint position.
Movements at the knee involve anterior and posterior drawer actions, limited by anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments.

Physiological Movement Amplitudes

Extension pulls the back of the leg away from the thigh by 5 to 10 degrees; no true absolute extension exists in anatomical position.
Active extension depends on hip positioning; the rectus femoris is more effective during extension.

Knee Flexion Dynamics

Knee flexion brings the leg closer to the thigh, dependent on hip position (flexed or extended).
Absolute and relative flexion definitions varying based on the reference position.

Dorsiflexion and Plantarflexion

Dorsiflexion reduces the angle between foot and shin; ranges from 70° to 80° of total flexion-extension.
Factors limiting dorsiflexion include bony structures and capsular tension.
Plantarflexion is the opposite movement, creating an angle between the foot and the leg.

Stability in the Subtalar Joint

Articulation congruence in the subtalar joint is critical, with the neutral foot position providing stability against gravity.
The alignment of the talus and calcaneus facilitates dynamic and static balance in standing positions.
