Pain or numbness of the first three fingers of the

hand, but not in the palm, especially at night

carpal tunnel syndrome

tingling with tapping over the median nerve as it enters the carpal tunnel

A

tinels test

39
Q

numbness or tingling with pressing backs of hands together in acute flexion for 60 sec

A

phalens sign

40
Q

Flexion of the neck may produce paresthesia
down the arms and legs in multiple sclerosis or
spondylosis

A

lhermitte sign

41
Q

Downward pressure on the neck may produce
symptoms of vertebral foramina narrowing. This may be accentuated when pressing down during lateral flexion. When they will feel paresthesia, stop the procedure immediately.

A

spurlings maneuver

42
Q

increasing intrathecal pressure may induce pain from tumor or disc collapse

A

valsalva

43
Q

To test for thoracic outlet obstruction. After
palpating for the radial artery, the arm is raised, extended and externally rotated and then the head is rotated to the opposite arm. Weakening of the pulse is a positive sign

A

adson maneuver

44
Q

To identify spinal nerve root
compression, which is associated with
disc protrusion and femoral nerve injury

A

femoral nerve stretch

45
Q

To test for underlying nerve root sensitivity

A

lasegues

49
Q

when the gluteus medius is weak, the pelvis drops on the non weight bearing side when the patient stands on the affected hip

A

trendelenburg test

50
Q

Performed while supine, with ankle placed on top

of the opposite knee in the figure-4 position. Discomfort is often seen with SI joint pathology.

A

faber test

51
Q

Stand or hop unsupported on one leg. Look for

reproduced pain in the groin area. This test is usually positive with a femoral neck stress fracture.

A

hop test

52
Q

Severe pain with gentle to-and-fro motion of

pelvis may indicate fracture, infection, or synovitis.

A

log roll test

53
Q

60
Q

mcmurray test

A

medial and lateral menisci

61
Q

Performed with knee in 90 degrees of
flexion and foot flat on table by pulling the
tibia anterior
RANGE OF MOTION
o The sensitivity of this exam is limited
because with the knee flexed to 90
degrees the collateral ligaments are taut
and restrain anterior motion

A

anterior drawer test

62
Q

o Performed with both knees flexed to 90
degrees and feet flat on exam table
o A posterior directed tibial sag on the
involved knee suggests a PCL tear with
significant posterior laxity.

A

sag sign

63
Q

Performed by flexing and extending the
knee, combined with internal and
external rotation
o A significant clunk with this maneuver
may indicate a displaced meniscal tear
o May cause a torn meniscus to displace
and lock the knee joint
o High rate of false-positives

A

mcmurrays

64
Q

○ Performed with the knee bent to 90
degrees while lying prone on the exam
table
○ Clunk during knee flexion and extension
while applying an axial load in both
internal and external rotation
○ High false positive rate

A

apley compression test

A

72
Q

performed by stabilizing the lower leg w one hand while cupping the heel with the other, then pulling forward on the calcaneous/talus complex

laxity compared to the uninvolved side suggests lateral ligament rupture

A

anterior draw test

73
Q

same with anterior draw test except that theres inverting of the ankle joint

A

talar tilt test

74
Q

Inversion laxity compared to the uninvolved side

suggests tearing of the lateral ligaments, while pain with this maneuver suggests ligament injury

A

talar tilt test

75
Q

Performed by squeezing at the base of the calf
muscle and looking for ankle plantarflexion
• A lack of plantar flexion suggests a complete achilles tendon rupture

A

thompson test
