Normal inter-limb differences during the straight leg raise neurodynamic test: a cross sectional study
BACKGROUND The straight leg raise (SLR) neurodynamic test is commonly used to examine the sensitivity of the lower quarter nervous system to movement. Range of motion during the SLR varies considerably, due to factors such as age, sex and activity level. Knowing intra-individual, inter-limb differences may provide a normative measure that is not influenced by such demographic characteristics. T...
متن کاملMechanosensitivity of the lower extremity nervous system during straight-leg raise neurodynamic testing in healthy individuals.
STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional, observational study. OBJECTIVES To explore how ankle position affects lower extremity neurodynamic testing. BACKGROUND Upper extremity limb movements that increase neural loading create a protective muscle action of the upper trapezius, resulting in shoulder girdle elevation during neurodynamic testing. A similar mechanism has been suggested in the lower extrem...
متن کاملInter-rater agreement, sensitivity, and specificity of the prone hip extension test and active straight leg raise test
BACKGROUND Two clinical tests used to assess for neuromuscular control deficits in low back pain (LBP) patients are the prone hip extension (PHE) test and active straight leg raise (ASLR) test. For these tests, it has been suggested examiners classify patients as "positive" or "negative" based on the presence or absence (respectively) of specific "abnormal" lumbopelvic motion patterns. The inte...

متن کاملReliability and validity of the active straight leg raise test in posterior pelvic pain since pregnancy.
STUDY DESIGN A cross-sectional analysis was performed in a group of women meeting strict criteria for posterior pelvic pain since pregnancy (PPPP). The scores on the Active Straight Leg Raise Test (ASLR test) were compared with the scores of healthy controls. OBJECTIVES To develop a new diagnostic instrument for use in patients with PPPP. The objectives of the present study were to assess the...
