18
Q

MMT - Palmaris Longus

A

Median C6-T1

Sitting, forearms on table, cup palm. Resistance against thenar and hypothenar to flatten palm.

19
Q

MMT - Flexor Digitorum Superficialis

21
Q

Tinel’s Sign

A

Tap over carpal tunnel.
+ve = tingling into median nerve distribution
Indicates: carpal tunnel

22
Q

Phalen’s Test

A

Flex pt’s wrist maximally and push them together for 1 min.
+ve = tingling into median nerve distribution
Indicates: carpal tunnel

23
Q

Reverse Phalen’s Test

A

Bring hands together and down by waist, into wrist ext. Hold for 1 min
+ve = tingling into median distribution
Indicates: carpal tunnel

24
Q

Carpal Compression Test

A

Hold supinated wrist and apply direct, even pressure over median nerve for up to 30s.
+ve = tingling in median distribution
Indicates: carpal tunnel

25
Q

Carpal Tunnel Relief Maneuver

A

Hand palm up, gently squeeze distal MC heads with slight adduction of digits 2-5. If basic maneuver not enough can pronate forearm and stretch digit 3 and 4.
+ve = relief of symptoms
Indicates: carpal tunnel

26
Q

1st CMC Grind Test

A

Grasp thumb below MCP joint, apply axial compression and rotation to the 1st MCP joint

27
Q

Lunotriquetral Shear Test

A

Grip pt wrist so thumb rests in pt palm and fingers are placed over dorsum of prox row of carpals to support lunate, Load pisotriquetral joint on palmar aspect with thumb, applying force to lunotriquetral joint.
+ve = pain, crepitus, abnormal instability

28
Q

Thumb UCL Laxity Test

A

Hold thumb in extension and apply valgus stress to MCP joint, also perform at 30 flexion
+ve = laxity greater than other side, >30-35° indicates complete rupture

29
Q

Ligamentous Instability of the Fingers Test

A

Stabilize finger with one hand and with other hand grasp distal to joint being tested. Apply varus or valgus stress to joint (PIP or DIP).
+ve = laxity greater than other side
Indicates: integrity of collateral ligaments

30
Q

Finkelstein Test

A

Make fist with thumb inside fingers. Stabilize forearm and UD the wrist. Compare bilaterally.
+ve = pain over APB and EPL, production of sharp pain with active extension/abduction of thumb and palpation over first dorsal component
Indicates: paratendonitis of 2 tendons

31
Q

Froment’s Sign

A

Grasp piece of paper between thumb and index finger. Attempt to pull paper away.
+ve = terminal phalanx of thumb flexes and can pull paper away.
Indicates: paralysis of adductor pollicis (ulnar nerve paralysis)

32
Q

Allen Test

A

Open and close hand several times quickly and then squeeze tightly. Place 1 thumb over both radial and ulnar arteries to compress them. Pt opens hand while pressure maintained. One artery tested by releasing pressure and seeing if hand flushes.
Indicates: patency of radial and ulnar arteries
