Meniscus: Squat Knee exam practice • Standing: inspection • Supine – Varus or valgus – Patellar facets • Sitting: palpation – Patellar grind – ROM – Joint line – Special tests – Femoral condyles • Lachman – Tibial plateau • Posterior drawer – Fibular head • Varus 0 and 30 • Valgus 0 and 30 • McMurray medial and lateral • Thessaly • Squat 7

View Lesser Tuberosity Infraspinatus (External rotation)) Anterior View Teres Minor Subscapularis (External rotation) (Internal Rotation) The Biceps Muscle Shoulder exam • #1 Supination of the elbow (screwing, twisting) • #2 Flexion of the elbow Long head 3 attachments: • Radial tuberosity (distal) • Glenoid (long head) • Coracoid (short head) Short head 9

  10. 7/27/2017 Shoulder examination Neck examination Special Tests: Key Components of the • Inspection • Hawkins impingement sign Shoulder Exam: • Neers impingement sign ‐ Neck • • Palpate CS Painful arc (rotator cuff dz) • ‐ Shoulder Jobe’s, aka Empty‐can (supraspinatus) • • FF and extension Drop arm test (rotator cuff dz) ‐ Inspection • External rotation lag test (rotator cuff tear) ‐ Palpation • Internal rotation lag test (rotator cuff tear) • Spurlings ‐ Range of Motion: • Speeds (biceps) • abduction, flexion, ER, IR Yergason’s (biceps) • O’briens (SLAP tear) ‐ Strength • AC crossover (AC joint OA or sprain) ‐ Neurovascular Cervical Spine Shoulder examination Spurling’s Maneuver • Inspection • Neck extended – Patient in gown • Head rotated toward • Palpation affected shoulder • Axial load placed on • ROM the cervical spine • Strength • Reproduction of – Supra patient’s – Infra and teres shoulder/arm pain minor indicates possible – Subscapularis nerve root • Other tests http://meded.ucsd.edu/clinicalmed/joints compression 2.htm, permission granted by Dr. Charles Goldberg, UCSD SOM 10

  11. 7/27/2017 Shoulder examination Inspection • Inspection • Presence of infraspinatus atrophy increases • Palpation likelihood of rotator cuff disease • Positive LR 2.0 • ROM http://meded.ucsd.edu/clinic • Strength • Negative LR 0.61 almed/joints2.htm, permission granted by Dr. – Supraspinatus Charles Goldberg, UCSD SOM – Infraspinatus & Teres minor – Subscapularis • Other tests Litaker D et al, J Am Geriatr Soc, 2000. Range of motion Range of motion Internal rotation Abduction External rotation Flexion 11

  12. 7/27/2017 Supine shoulder PROM Passive range of motion • If limited AROM in any direction • Follow up by testing passive motion in that direction • If limited active and passive ROM think – Frozen shoulder – Glenohumeral joint arthritis Shoulder exam practice Shoulder: diagnosis driven exam • Neck: palpation, ROM and Spurling’s maneuver Active ROM • Inspection Normal Decreased • Palpation • AROM Weak = Rotator cuff tear – Abduction Limited by pain = Passive ROM – Flexion Other rotator cuff dz Normal Labral tear – External rotation (ER) Decreased Biceps tendinitis – Internal rotation (IR) 1 AC joint OA • PROM GH joint Xray OA Frozen Normal shoulder Abnormal 12

  13. 7/27/2017 Other tests Rotator cuff disease exam • Rotator cuff disease (RCD) • Pain provocation tests • Pain and strength tests – Bursitis or impingement • Often the pain radiates to lateral shoulder/proximal arm (“deltoid”) – Tendinitis/tendinopathy – Partial tear – Full thickness tear • Biceps tendinitis/tendinopathy • Labral tear • AC joint osteoarthritis Pain test: Impingement signs Pain test: Painful arc If painful, positive LR 3.7 for RCD. If not painful, negative LR 0.36 for RCD. Hawkin’s Neer’s JAMA. Rational clinical exam: Does this patient have rotator cuff disease? Aug 2013. Photos from Dr. Christina Allen 13

  14. 7/27/2017 Exam practice: Pain & Strength test: pain provocation tests in RCD Supraspinatus = abduction • Hawkins impingement sign Supraspinatus • Neers impingement sign • Painful arc (rotator cuff dz) 2 71% sensitivity Empty can 41% specificity for (aka Jobe’s) rotator cuff disease.
