TRENDELENBURG SIGN 👨‍🎓 The Trendelenburg sign is a physical examination finding seen when assessing for any dysfunction of the hip. ➕ A positive sign is defined by a contralateral pelvic drop during a single-leg stance. This finding usually indicates weakness in the hip abductor muscles (gluteus medius and gluteus minimus). How would this sign look during the gait cycle❓ During single-leg support, when we stand on the weak leg, the pelvis will rise ipsilaterally. Meaning we will see a dropping

The Trendelenburg Test is a fast and effective clinical tool for assessing hip abductor strength. A positive sign—a drop in the pelvis on the unsupported side—can indicate weakness or dysfunction in the stance leg’s abductors. 📽️ Learn more about the technique and interpretation on Physiopedia, and explore the full video in the Physiopedia Plus library. 🔗 Access the full video library https://members.physio-pedia.com/videos/ • Like & Share to support evidence-based hip assessment • Follow for
