Active and Passive Range of Motion
|
Flexion, extension
Abduction and adduction Internal and external rotatio |
|
Test for Sternoclavicular Joint Instability
|
With athlete seated, pressure is applied to the SC joint anteriorly, superiorly and inferiorly to determine stability or pain associated w/ a joint sprain
|
|
Test for Acromioclavicular Joint Instability
|
Palpate for displacement of acromion and distal head of clavicle
Apply pressure in all 4 directions to determine stability |
|
Tests for Glenohumeral Instability
-Glenohumeral Translation |
Anterior and posterior stability
|
|
Apprehension test
- what is it used for? |
Apprehension test used for anterior glenohumeral instability
|
|
Posterior instability apprehension test
|
athlete lays down on back and puts elbow at 90 degrees across the chest and the A.T. pushes down on the elbow putting pressure on th posterior aspect of the shoulder
|
|
O’Brien Test (Active Compression Test)
|
Athlete flexes GH joint to 90 degrees and horizontally adducted 15 degrees from the sagittal plane Downward pressure is applied with humerus is fully internally rotated and externally rotated If pain with internal rotation but decreases with external rotation and there is clicking = SLAP lesion Pain in AC joint may indicate AC joint pathology
|
|
Neer’s test and Hawkins-Kennedy test
|
test for impingement used to assess impingement of soft tissue structures Positive test is indicated by pain and grimace
|
|
Drop Arm Test
|
Used to determine tears of rotator cuff (primarily the supraspinatus) Athlete abducts shoulder and gradually lowers to starting position Inability to lower arm slowly and controlled will indicate torn supraspinatus
|
|
Empty Can Test
|
90 degrees of shoulder flexion, internal rotation and 30 degrees of horizontal abduction Downward pressure is applied
Weakness and pain are assessed bilaterally for supraspinatus |
|
Test for Serratus Anterior Weakness
|
Wall push-up - looking for winging scapula
Could indicate injury to long thoracic nerve |
|
Test for Biceps Irritation
|
Yergason’s test and Speed’s test utilized to determine pain and possible subluxation of biceps tendon Ludington’s test used to assess possible rupture of biceps (feel for contraction while alternating contractions of each biceps)
|
|
Tests for Thoracic Outlet Compression Syndrome
-list the tests |
Anterior scalene syndrome (Adson’s test)
Costoclavicular syndrome test (Roo’s test) |
|
Anterior scalene syndrome (Adson’s test)
|
Compression of subclavian artery by scalenes is assessed
Disappearance of pulse while athlete turns toward extended arm and takes a breath indicates a positive test |
|
Costoclavicular syndrome test (Roo’s test)
|
Compression of artery between clavicle and first rib Test is positive if after opening and closing hands for 3 minutes, strength or circulation decreases
Test is also positive if while in military brace position, head is turned in opposite direction and pulse disappears |
