Q

What is a Neer test?

What are you looking for?

A

Passively flex glenohumeral
No shrugging

Assess Impingement

17
Q

What is a Hawkins Kennedy test?

A

Clinician internally rotates shoulder with elbow up
Pain = Positive

Positive = Likely supraspinatus tendon (possibly teres or infra)

18
Q

What is a Jobe’s test?

A

Straight arm 90 deg. up, 30 deg forward
Internally rotates shoulder (like emptying can)
Clinician resists movement

Pain - weakness = tendinopathy
Pain + weakness = Tear

19
Q

What does assessing external rotation strength look at?

A

Infraspinatus and Teres Minor

20
Q

What do you look for in push off tests?

A

Hand behind back push against resistant

Subscapularis

21
Q

Three imaging studies possibly used in shoulder pain?

A

X-ray/CT – Bones
MRI – Soft Tissue
Ultrasound

22
Q

What do you do if acute arthritis is suspected?

A

Arthrocentesis

23
Q

What traits should you look to to distinguish between shoulder disorders?

A

Inflammation, Number of Joints, Site of Involvement

24
Q

Examples of Intrinsic Shoulder Issues. (7)

A
Trauma
Acute Arthritis
Bursitis
Capsulitis
Bicipital tendonitis
Rotator Cuff Tendonopathy (w/impingement)
Myofascial Pain
25
Q

Examples of Extrinsic Shoulder Issues?

A

Neurologic
Diaphragmatic Irritation
Cardiovascular
Thoracic

26
Q

Difference between tendinitis and tendinosis

A

Tendinitis – Inflammation of Tendons from microtears

Tendinosis – Degeneration of Tendons from chronic overuse

27
Q

Why is tendinosis difficult to detect?

A

No accompanying inflammation

28
Q

What is tendonopathy?

A

Tendon thickening and chronic, localized tendon pain

29
Q

Initial treatment for shoulder pain?

A

Rest
Analgesics/Anti-inflammatory medications
Pendulum Exercises

30
Q

Later treatment for shoulder pain?

A

Strengthening Exercises/Physical Therapy
Return to Normal Activities
Surgery if a complete tear

31
Q

What is anchoring bias?

A

The tendency to place too much weight on a single piece of information acquired early in the data acquisition process.

32
Q

Five steps in Diff Diag?

A
Acquire Data
Identify Key Features
Create a Representation
Adopt a Framework
Apply Features to Framework
