Purpose
[edit | edit source]
This test is used to identify the presence of hip pathology. The FABER test is also a screening tool for hip, lumbar, or SI joint dysfunction, or an iliopsoas spasm[1].
Technique[2]
[edit | edit source]
The patient is positioned in supine. The leg is placed in a figure-4 position (hip flexed and abducted with opposite foot resting on the contralateral thigh just above the knee). While stabilizing the opposite side of the pelvis, an external rotation and posteriorly directed force is then applied to the ipsilateral knee. A positive test is one that reproduces the patient's pain or limits their ROM.
Evidence[edit | edit source]
- Sensitivity for identification of hip pathology identified with arthroscopy: 0.89[3]
- Correlation of positive test with OA on radiographs: r = 0.54[4]
Resources[edit | edit source]
add any relevant resources here
