Study Notes
Orthopedic Physical Examination Summary
- Neer Test: Positive indicates pain relief after 1% 10 cc lidocaine injection.
- Hawkins Test: Positive if shoulder forced into adduction and internal rotation at 90 degrees of elevation.
- Drop Arm Test: Positive if patient is unable to slowly lower the arm in abduction or if arm falls painfully down.
- Hornblower’s Sign: Positive if patient cannot maintain position when shoulder is abducted at 90 degrees and elbow is passively placed in external rotation at 90 degrees flexion.
- Lift-off Test: Positive if patient cannot move hand away from back, indicating subscapularis tear or insufficiency.
- Biceps Test (Speed Test): Positive if pain occurs along biceps during forearm pronation against resistance at 90° flexion.
- Instability Test (Anterior Apprehension Sign): Positive if patient experiences fear of shoulder dislocation at 90° abduction, 90° elbow flexion, and external rotation.
- Instability Test (Anterior Drawer Test): Positive if passive anteriorly pushed humerus displaces above glenoid cavity level.
- Elbow Examination: Consists of 3 joints - Humeroradial, Humeroulnar, Radioulnar.
- Elbow Examination Inspection: Includes carrying angle and palpation of bone structures.
- Elbow Examination Range of Motion: Involves Varus/Valgus Stress Test at 20-30 degrees flexion.
- Wrist and Hand Examination: Includes tests for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, De Quervain's Tenosynovitis, and corresponding signs for each.
Hip Examination:
- Faddir Test: Used to identify Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, Anterior labral tear, and Iliopsoas tendinitis.
- Fabere Test: Positive if groin or buttock pain is produced when hip is in flexion, abduction, and external rotation.
- Ober Test: Positive if the leg is unable to adduct when dropped into adduction, indicating a tight Iliotibal Band.
- Inspection, palpation, range of motion, muscle strength, and specific hip joint examinations are also conducted.
Knee Examination:
- Includes inspection, palpation, and range of motion tests.
- Range of Motion: Knee can perform 135 degrees flexion and 0 degrees extension.
