Do we need a sub-system?

Look General on patient General local – shoulder, arm, upper limb
Position Major deformity- swelling Extra – cast, splint, traction, dressing …
Anatomic local Skin : swelling, scars, colour, hair, dryness … Subcut. : LN, veins, nerves, tendons …. Muscles : bulk, wasting, twitches …. Bones : landmarks, swelling, angulation and
deformity. Joints : position, swelling, redness..

Look General on patient :
Lying comfortably in bed, not in pain.
Lying in bed in pain keeping the R upper limb on his chest.
Standing with the R shoulder adducted and internally rotated and elbow extended.
Sitting uncomfortably in a chair with R forearm in an arm sling.

Look Anatomic local
Skin : swelling, scars, colour, hair, dryness …Subcut. : LN, veins, nerves, tendons ….Muscles : bulk, wasting, twitches ….Bones : landmarks, swelling, angulation and
deformity (sterno-clavicular, acromio-clavicular, greater
tuberosity, scapula)Joints : position
( Do Not Forget The Posterior Aspect ! )
![Page 11: Shoulder Examination](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081422/5681636b550346895dd44769/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Look Anatomic local
Muscles : bulk, wasting, twitches ..
With the patient sitting, look for atrophy in three sites:
The supraspinatus fossa The infraspinatus fossa The deltoid.
This demonstrates weakness due either to a rotator cuff tear, or a neurological deficit.
![Page 12: Shoulder Examination](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081422/5681636b550346895dd44769/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Look Anatomic local
Bones / Joints: landmarks,swelling,angulation and deformity.
Sterno-clavicular joint. Clavicle. Acromio-clavicular joint. Greater tuberosity. Scapula and scapular spine
![Page 13: Shoulder Examination](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081422/5681636b550346895dd44769/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Look Important Considerations:
Amount of exposure.Duration of exposure.Persons present during exposure.Place of exposure.Attitude and behavior during exposure.

Feel What do we look at? What do we look for?
Do we need a sub-system?

Feel Tenderness:
Generalized / specific Temperature:
compare distal/proximal, compare Rt/Lt Anatomic:
Skin : dryness, hyper/hypothesia, scars Subcut. : LN, nerves, vessels, tendons, nodules Muscle : tone, bulk, twitches, gaps, tenderness Bone : tenderness, mass, crepitus, landmarks: ( SternoClavicular, AcromioClavicular, Coracoid Process,
Greater Tuberosity, scapular spine, and scapula ). Joint : swelling, effusion, crepitation, synovial thickening, joint
line tenderness.

Move Shoulder joint motion is associated with
Scapulo-thoracic motion
Practically we deal with BOTH as one joint
![Page 18: Shoulder Examination](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081422/5681636b550346895dd44769/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Move Active / Passive
Start with active range of motion
Supplement with passive if active not full

Move Movement Directions (normal range)
Abduction (150o) Forward flexion (180o) Extension (45o) External Rotation (90o), elbow at 90o
With arm comfortably at side With arm at 90o abduction
Internal rotation (90o)

Look at : Range of motion Smoothness of motion Painful motion
Move: Abduction / Adduction
![Page 24: Shoulder Examination](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081422/5681636b550346895dd44769/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Move: Abduction / Adduction Shoulder abduction involves the
glenohumeral joint and the scapulo-thoracic articulation
The first 20o 30o of abduction should not require scapulo-thoracic motion
![Page 25: Shoulder Examination](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081422/5681636b550346895dd44769/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Move: Abduction / Painful Arc active abduction:
Initiation, range, rhythm - note the arc of painful movement
Initiation of abduction: SupraspinatusMiddle abduction (30o–90o): Rotator cuffExtreme abduction (>90o): Acromio-clavicular
