Reliability of SIJ testing and examination

Motion of the SU is limited to minute amounts of rotation and of translation

Rotation:

-1.1 to 2.2 degrees along the X-axis

-0.8 to 4.0 degrees along the Y-axis

-0.5 to 8.0 degrees along the Z-axis.

Translation:

-0.3 to 8.0 (mm) along the X-axis

-0.2 to 7.0 mm along the Y-axis

-0.3 to 6.0 mm along the Z-axis

The use of a cluster of motion palpation or provocation tests is a more acceptable/reliable method than single test to assess SIJ or the clinical methods utilizing palpation for diagnosing SU pathology.

Patrick / FABER test

Thigh thrust or posterior shear test

Resisted abduction test

Standing flexion test

Sitting flexion test

Gillet test

Prone knee flexion test

Gaenslen’s provocation SIJ test

Distraction provocation SIJ test

Sacral thrust provocation SIJ test

Reliability of the individual tests

Poor, can be influenced by several factors such as the participants, therapists and clinical tests, insufficient pressure when applying provocation tests may generate many false negatives

Reliability for the cluster of motion palpation or provocation tests

Moderate to excellent reliability of three or more positive tests

Testing is done at each stage so that we can find the problem at the first stage not after the implementation process. We can use testing buy a college essay after doing it reusability strategy.
