  1. Ch. 13 – The Shoulder and Upper Arm Review of Special Tests

  2. Apley’s Scratch Test

  3. Drop Arm Test • Implications • Inability to lower arm in controlled manner is indicative of lesions to the rotator cuff, especially the supraspinatus

  4. Apprehension test • Implications • Anterior capsule, inferior GH L., or glenoid labrum compromised, allowing humeral head to dislocate or subluxate anteriorly on glenoid fossa

  5. Gerber Lift-off Test • Implications • Tears or weakness of subscapularis muscle

  6. GH Glide Tests

  7. GH Glide Tests • Implications – laxity of the static stabilizers of the GH joint • Anterior – coracohumeral L., superior and middle GH L., anterior jt capsule, labral tear • Posterior – posterior jt capsule, labral tear • Inferior-anterior – inferior jt capsule, superior GH L., coracohumeral L.

  8. AC Traction Test • Implications • Sprain of AC or costoclavicular ligaments

  9. AC Compression Test • Implications • Damage to AC L., and possibly coracoclavicular L.

  10. Relocation Test

  11. Posterior Apprehension Test • Implications • Laxity in the posterior GH capsule, torn posterior labrum

  12. Test for Posterior Instability in the Plane of the Scapula • Implications • Laxity in posterior GH capsule, coracohumeral L.

  13. Sulcus Sign • Implications • Humeral head slides inferiorly on glenoid fossa, indicating laxity in superior GH ligament

  14. Neer Impingement Test • Implications – Impingement of rotator cuff and/or long head of biceps tendon between greater tuberosity and inferior side of acromion process and AC joint

  15. Hawkins Impingement Test • Implications – Impingement of rotator cuff and/or long head of biceps tendon between greater tuberosity and inferior side of acromion process

  16. Empty Can Test • Implications – the supraspinatus tendon is being impinged between humeral head and coracoacromial arch or is inflamed or contains a lesion

  17. Yergason’s Test • Implications – snapping or popping = tear or laxity of transverse humeral L.; pain only = bicipital tendinitis

  18. Speed’s Test • Implications • Inflammation of long head of biceps tendon in groove; possible tear of transverse L. with concurrent instability of tendon in groove

  19. O’Brien Test • Implications – SLAP lesion

  20. Adson’s Test • Implications • Subclavian artery is being occluded between anterior and middle scalene muscles and pec minor

  21. Allen Test • Implications • Pec minor is compressing neurovascular bundle
