    Pelvic examination techniques are used to identify instability. Palpating the anterior pelvis can detect a symphyseal gap, indicating diastasis. Compression testing in both the anteroposterior and lateral directions, by applying downward pressure to the anterior superior iliac spines and compressing the iliac crests, can identify pelvic rotational instability.

    Definition

    Palpation of the anterior pelvis may


    demonstrate a symphyseal gap
    indicative of diastasis. is performed
    in an effort to identify pelvic
    rotational instability.

    mechanism
    Compression testing in the
    anteroposterior direction through
    applied downward pressure on the
    anterior superior iliac spines (ASISs)
    and in the lateral direction via
    compression of the iliac crests
