Inspection
- From the front
- prominent sternoclavicular joint
- prominent acromiclavicular joint
- From the side
- swelling of the joint
- From behind
- scapulae normally shaped and situated
- From above
- swelling of the shoulder
- deformity of clavicle
- asymmetry of supraclavicular fossae
Palpation
- anterior and lateral aspects glenohumeral joint
- upper humeral shaft and head via axilla
- acromioclavicular joint
Movement
- Abduction & Adduction - both arms noting:
- range of movement
- pain
- Flexion
- Extension
- Rotation screening
- place arm behind opposite shoulder blade
- ask patient to draw hand away from back
- place both hands behind neck
- compare two sides
- crepitus - - place hand over shoulder, abduct arm
Special tests
- Rotator cuff
- abduction and drop arm test- lift ptโs arm abduct and ext rotate, at 90 deg, release, if drops, +ve for supra and infraspinatus,
- teres minor & infraspinatus test
- Neer impingement sign- depress scapula, internally rotate arm , forced flexion, anterior pain subacromial , posterior pain internal impingement
- Hawkinโs test โ rest your arm across the other shoulder, elbow flexed, internally rotate- - subacromial bursitis if +ve, 80 % sensitivity, 60% specificity
- Lift off test โsubscapularis testing, check power
- Anterior glenohumeral instability
- apprehension test- patient supine, abduct arm ,add gradual ext rotation until pain or fear of subluxation
- Posterior glenohumeral instability
- apprehension test- supine, 1 hand support behind scapula, 90 dg flexion arm, adduct and int rotate with axial loading
- Inferior glenohumeral instability- arm by side, grab elbow and pull distally. if sulcus present under acromion +ve ( if unilateral, some ppl have both sides โ not pathological)
- sulcus sign
- Biceps tendinitis & sup labral tear- speed test (weak test)- extend elbow, flexed arm to 90 deg then resistance from examiner
- Yergassonโs test โ arm by side, palpate bicipital groove, resisted supination
- Integrity of the long head of biceps /subluxation
- Deltoid power
- Suprascapular nerve
- supraspinatus
- infraspinatus
- Long thoracic nerve
- lean with both hands against the wall
- Axillary nerve and NV status distally
