Special tests. Subacromial Impingement. Hawkin's test: Shoulde r flexed 90o, elbow flexed 90o; internal rotation will cause pain. Neer's test: Pain eliminated by local anaesthetic injection into the subacromial bursa.
Shoulder Range of Motion Exercises. The exercises illustrated and described in this document should be performed only after instruction by your physical therapist or Dr. Gill’s office.
Forward flexion: Have the patient raise their arms as far as possible to the front. 0-160 degrees overhead is normal. Abduction: 0-180 degrees overhead is normal done in the scapular plane. External Rotation: Hold the elbow at the hip with the arm flexed to 90 degrees and rotate out.
Kim test—The examiner should place the arm with the shoulder abducted to 90 degrees and forward flexed to 45 degrees. A posteriorly and inferiorly directed force is then applied to the humerus. The test is positive if the patient experiences pain and is highly indicative of a posteroinferior labral tear. Rotator cuff tear tests
Shoulder mobility is efficiently assessed by measuring four ranges of motion: flexion, external rotation with the arm at the side, external rotation with the arm in 900 of abduction, and internal rotation. To evaluate shoulder flexion, place the patient's arm at the side (A).
Review the exam skills and concepts needed in the typical internal medicine patient population. Review shoulder anatomy, landmarks and main diagnostic considerations. Provide an approach to the shoulder exam with an emphasis on evaluation of: Rotator cuff tear vs. mechanical impingement.
protraction. Test: passive forward elevation of the arm (fi gure 1). Pay attention to: pain in the shoulder. The pain is relieved by injecting 10 ml of lido-caine beneath the anterior acromion. Background: the tuberculum majus impinges the degenerated supraspina-tus and subacromial bursa against the acromion. Hawkins–Kennedy test 12
