Preferred Label : Lateral hip abduction reaction:Find:Pt: Patient:Ord:TIMP;
LOINC status : ACTIVE;
LOINC long common name : Lateral hip abduction reaction [TIMP];
LOINC description : Position: The examiner places the infant in sidelying position, head aligned with
trunk and cradled in the examiner's hand. The underneath leg is maintained in hip
flexion while the top leg is maintained in hip extension but allowed movement into
abduction. If the child can hold his own head, the examiner supports the child at
the shoulder. Omit on children with no upright head control (score 0). Procedure:
The examiner laterally flexes the infant's head several times to initiate lateral
head righting (or laterally flexes the trunk from the shoulder if the infant can laterally
right his own head). The examiner must maintain the hip of the upper leg in extension
while the lower leg is kept in flexion and must not allow the infant to use the hands
or arms to grasp or to lean upon the support surface. Reactions in the neck, trunk,
and lower extremity are observed as the upper body is lowered rapidly.;
