109
A Hip That Needs Replacing
110
A Radiograph of a Hip With Osteoarthritis (replacement candidate)
111
Removing the Femoral Head
      • The steps involved in replacing the hip begin with making an incision on the side of the thigh to allow access to the hip joint.  There are several different approaches used to make the incision, usually based on the surgeon’s training and preferences.
      • Once the joint is entered, the femoral head is actually dislocated from the acetabulum and the femoral head is removed by cutting through the femoral neck with a power saw.
112
Reaming the Acetabulum
  • Attention is then turned towards the socket, where using a power drill and a special reamer, the cartilage is removed from the acetabulum and the bone is formed in a hemispherical shape to exactly fit the metal shell of the acetabular component.
113
Inserting the Acetabular Component
  • Once the right size and shape is determined for the acetabulum, the acetabular component is inserted into place.  In the uncemented variety of artificial hip replacement, the metal shell is simply held in place by the tightness of the fit or by using screws to hold the metal shell in place.  In the cemented variety, a special epoxy type cement is used to anchor the acetabular component to the bone.
114
Preparing the Femoral Canal
  • To begin replacing the femoral head, special rasps are used to shape the hollow femur to the exact shape of the metal stem of the femoral component.
115
Inserting the Femoral Stem
  • Once the size and shape are satisfactory, the stem is inserted into the femoral canal.  Again, the uncemented variety of femoral component is held in place by the tightness of the fit into the bone (similar to the friction that holds a nail driven into a hole drilled into a wooden board - with a slightly smaller diameter than the nail).  In the cemented variety, the femoral canal is rasped to a size slightly larger than the femoral stem, and the epoxy type cement is used to bond the metal stem to the bone.
116
Attaching the Femoral Head
  • The metal ball that makes up the femoral head is attached
117
The Completed Hip Replacement
118
The Completed Hip Replacement
Radiograph
  • A radiograph showing an artificial hip in place.
119
Contraindications to Massage
  • Recent replacements
  • No intrinsics
  • No extreme heat or cold
  • Be aware that there is usually an associated bone condition with a hip replacement e.g. osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and you need to treat accordingly
120
Massage Treatment
  • In the early stages, lots of effleurage and petrissage to help reduce the pain and inflammation.
  • In the later stages of healing, lots of work to the musculature around the replacement to allow for a return of range of motion.
  • Lots of friction to help strengthen the ligaments and tendons and to help realign the scar tissue.
  • Lots of work to the adductors.
121
Home Care and Exercise Rehabilitation
  • Start with aquatic therapy.  This involves doing stretches and exercises in the water to prevent excessive weight bearing.
  • As weight bearing can be increased, stretching and strengthening can start being done on land.  Closed-chained exercises are good for recovery.
  • Passive range of motion exercises can be done with the therapist’s or at home care person’s assistance through out.
  • Because the patient has not been walking or walking properly for a great length of time, you will want to give them exercises to help retrain the joint movement and also help them to transfer their weight properly
122
Wall Walk
Stability/Walking Exercise
  • Stand next to a wall with one hand on it for balance, make sure that you have lots of room in front of you
  • Slowly walk forward making sure that you are stepping starting with the heel to the lateral aspect of the foot, roll across the ball of the foot to the big toe
  • Repeat with other foot
  • Use the full length of the wall
123
Foot Rock
Stability/Walking Exercise
  • Standing next to a wall with one hand on it for balance
  • Lift the unaffected leg
  • Rock from a flat foot to the ball of the affected foot
  • Rock back onto the heel of the same foot
124
Capsular Impingement
  • possible causes
  • tests
  • treatment
  • exercise rehabilitation


125
Possible Causes
Capsular Impingement
  • hip replacement surgery
  • car accident - especially driving a standard vehicle and having the foot on the clutch when hit
126
Tests
Capsular Impingement
  • When you are getting no results with the treatment and assessment that you are doing, try treating for an impingement of the joint capsule.
  • Ask lots of questions with the patient history and also if they have told you that they recently had an accident (oral patient history for return patients).  Get as much information as possible.  This could lead you in the right direction.
127
Sheet Technique
Treatment for Capsular Impingement
  • patient lying lateral recumbent affected side up, with the therapist standing facing the patient
128
Sheet Technique
Treatment for Capsular Impingement
  • tie a long sheet together to make a loop, wrap the loop around one shoulder and underneath the opposite arm
  • place the loop around the affected leg and have the patient pull high up into the groin area


129
Sheet Technique
Treatment for Capsular Impingement
  • gently lift the leg, using your legs not your back, straight up to create a traction
  • gently lower the leg back down
  • reassess the hip, they may have a tightness or weakness that is caused by the impingement


130
Exercise Rehabilitation
Capsular Impingement
  • Give appropriate stretches and strength exercises depending on the associated restrictions.
  • Be sure to fully assess the hip to determine these as an impingement may cause weakness or tightness or both.
  • See previous exercises for some examples.

THE QUIZ
132
Question #1
  • If you had an abduction restriction due to hypertonicity what muscles would you treat?
133
Answer #1
  • You would treat the adductor group
134
Question #2
  • Which is the weakest ligament of the hip?
135
Answer #2
  • Ischiofemoral ligament
136
Question #3
  • List all of the integrity tests which test for a herniated disc.
137
Answer #3
  • Well Leg
  • Valsalva
  • Slump Test
138
Question #4
  • Patient supine
  • Therapist abducts the leg to end range
  • Patient adducts into yielding resistance through full range of motion
  • This intrinsic treatment is for what?
139
Answer #4
  • Adduction restriction due to hypotonicity
140
Question #5
  • What muscles make up the quadriceps group?
141
Answer #5
  • Rectus femoris
  • Vastus lateralis
  • Vastus intermedius
  • Vastus medialis
  • Sartorius goes along with these but is not a true quadricep
142
Question #6
  • What plane and axis does internal rotation occur in and on?
143
Answer #6
  • Transverse plane
  • Y axis
144
Question #7
  • What is the range of motion in flexion at the hip, with the knee flexed?
145
Answer #7
  • 120 degrees
146
Question #8
  • What restriction(s) can occur at the hip if you have a hypertonic piriformis?
147
Answer #8
  • Internal rotation due to hypertonicity


148
Question #9
  • What does the Trendelenburg test test for?
149
Answer #9
  • Weak glute med. on the opposite side
150
Question #10
  • Given: adduction active test - unequal
  •             adduction passive test - equal
  •             adduction resisted test - unequal
  • What restriction do you have and what is the cause?
151
Answer #10
  • Restriction - adduction due to hypotonicity
  • Cause - weak adductor group
