Shoulder

What are normal ROM at the shoulder joint?
FLX - 180
ABD - 180
ER - 90
IR - 70
EXT - 60
Shoulder

Open and Closed Packed Positions
OPEN
55 ABD, 30 Hor ADD

CLOSED
ABD and ER
Shoulder

What are the three types of acromion morphology
Type I
relatively flat undersurface

Type II
slightly convex

Type III
hooked, can predispose to rotator cuff pathology
Shoulder

Capsular Pattern
ER > ABD > IR
Shoulder

Primary Impingement
Older patients

Degeneration in rotator cuff, acromion, coracoid, anterior tissues
Shoulder

Secondary Impingement
Younger patients

Muscle dynamics upset, and abnormal movement
Shoulder

Internal Impingement
Posterior

Involves undersurface of rotator cuff with posterosuperior glenoid labrum when arm is ABD to 90 and full ER
Shoulder Special Test

Neers Impingement
Block scapula, and passively overpressure pt's arm into flexion/scaption.

Repeat test in ER/neurtral/IR of the shoulder
Shoulder Special Test

Hawkins Impingement
Shoulder up to 90, bring into IR
Shoulder Special Test

Cross Arm ADD
Shoulder at 90, passively force into Hor ADD

Tests AC joint,
Shoulder Special Test

Yocum Impingement
hand on opposite shoulder, lift elbow up
Shoulder Special Test

Supraspinatus test (Dynamic Impingement test)
Arm out in scaption, full shoulder IR (thumbs down)

Push
Shoulder Special Test

Infraspinatus test
Elbow to 90, arm at side, resist ER
Shoulder Special Test

Reverse Impingement Test
Push pt humerus inferiorly as the arm is abducted or ER.

*If pain decreases with this depression, postive test for mechanical impingement under acromion
Shoulder Special Test

Posterior Internal Impingement Test
pt supine, passively ABD shoulder to 90 and max ER

*positive if pain in posterior deltoid
When testing for shoulder instability, which type should you do first?

Choices:
Inferior/Multidirectional
Anterior
Posterior
Inferior/Multidirectional is first
Shoulder Special Test

Sulcus Sign for Inferior Instability
Grab arm and pull distally. Unilateral is more significant than bilateral
Shoulder Special Test

Feagin Test for Inferior Instability
Shoulder ABD to 90 and resting on PT shoulder, push humeral head inferiorly and forward
Shoulder Special Test

Apprehension Crank for anterior instability
Shoulder to 90 ABD, full ER. overpressure into ER

*apprehension is positive sign
*pain might indicate impingement
Shoulder Special Test

Fulcrum Test
Fist under shoulder

More Anterior Displacement
Shoulder Special Test

Relocation/Release Test for Anterior Instability
During the Apprehension test (90 ABD, full ER) if you apply posterior force:
1) apprehension lost
2) pain goes away and motion is gained
Shoulder Special Test

Anterior Drawer
Passively translate the humeral head anteriorly
Shoulder Special Test

Load & Shift
Compress humerus in and then translate anteriorly

GOLD STANDARD

like the drawer test, but with compression
Shoulder Special Test

Rockwood test for Anterior Instability
Arm at side - ER shoulder
^Repeat at 45, 90, 120

*Look for Apprehension
Shoulder Special Tests

Posterior Apprehension Test for posterior instability
Apply an axial load while Hor ADD and IR the shoulder

*look for apprehension
Shoulder Special Tests

Posterior Drawer Test for posterior instability
passively translate humeral head backward
Shoulder Special Tests

Load & Shift test for posterior instability
Apply forced compression to humeral head and translate backward
Shoulder Special Tests

Jerk Test for posterior instability
pt sits arm IR and FLX 90. axial load through elbow. Hor ADD arm.

*sudden jerk as humeral head slides off
ager, agri
