Description

In this episode, we explore the assessment of hip dysplasia, focusing on the condition's definition, the differences between extension and flexion-based movements, and both subjective and objective assessment techniques. We discuss the importance of observing gait, head of femur translation, single leg stance, and various special tests, including apprehension testing, to diagnose and understand hip dysplasia. 

Andrew is an APA Sports and Manipulative Physiotherapist who is currently employed at St. Kilda Football Club (since 2007) and works privately at Melbourne Orthopaedic Group Sports Medicine. Over the last 20 years, Andrew has worked in both a clinical setting and within the elite sporting environment at Melbourne Victory, Adelaide Thunderbirds, SACA Redbacks, V8 Supercars, triathlon and athletics.
