Concave/Convex Rules | How to Mobilize a Joint [Part 3]

The video tutorial explores osteokinematic movements, focusing on determining the mobilization direction to restore specific movements. It reviews previous examples and introduces the reverse analysis approach, emphasizing the importance of identifying joints and bones involved. The tutorial applies convex-concave rules to understand the relationship between mobilization direction and movement, concluding with practical applications.

What is the main focus of the video tutorial?

• Understanding the anatomy of the human body.

• Determining the specific movement being restored from a mobilization direction.

• Predicting the mobilization direction from a given movement.

• Learning about different types of joints.

Which joint is primarily discussed in the video?

• Knee joint

• Shoulder joint

• Hip joint

• Elbow joint

In the context of the hip joint, which bone is considered mobile?

• Tibia

• Acetabulum

• Pelvis

• Femur

What is the rule for determining the direction of roll and slide when a convex bone moves on a concave bone?

• Roll is static, slide is dynamic.

• Both roll and slide are static.

• Roll and slide are in opposite directions.

• Roll and slide are in the same direction.

How can you remember the direction of roll and slide for a concave bone moving on a convex bone?

• Convex has no repeating letters, so roll and slide are opposite.

• Concave is static, so roll and slide are static.

• Concave has two 'C's, so roll and slide are in the same direction.

• Convex is dynamic, so roll and slide are dynamic.

What movement is being restored when the femur moves posteriorly?

• Hip flexion

• Hip rotation

• Hip abduction

• Hip extension

What direction is the mobilization when the therapist applies force to the posterior thigh?

• Medial

• Posterior

• Anterior

• Lateral
