[@usamuchi]

I saw many shoulder examinations done by other specialists , this is probably one of the best and very clear within osce time limit . Thank you very much

[@tianmatthew]

This is a very good demonstration of shoulder tests! would Iike to watch it many times until I can do all the tests confidently
Thanks a lot

[@piano22guitar]

This video is the greatest video for shoulder region testing, iam a physical therapist. thank you very much

[@Katherineiish]

This is the best shoulder exam video ever. Thank you!

[@1000buffalos]

Nice exam. One small observation.
When performing the Jobe's, O'Brien's, or similar "long lever" testing, it is preferable to make the distal contact proximal to the elbow.

[@AymanEwida]

[@harjee10]

great presenter . Thank you !

[@alvinzbest]

really useful and professional video!!
keep it up!

[@kerriwilkes9747]

Thank you! Concise and thorough.

[@dpetralia]

the Subscapularis test is , a little incorrect, it should be much lower around the Gluteal region, putting the hand at waist level puts the subscapularis at a significant mechanical disadvantage giving the impression of weakness, that's why police officers restrain people in this position. To summarize to get a accurate reading put the hand lower on the patients bottom.

[@chriscumbag]

This is going to sound insulting, but muscular-skeletal examination videos are really calming / relaxing.

[@Dr34Hornet]

Very through and easy to follow

[@brendanolear]

Having suffered from a shoulder restriction for years I have attempted all positions in this excellent video to gauge my flexibility/pain.
Whilst having no pain the only movement I cannot do is at 3.33 on right side, left is ok
Using right side my fingers are still about 5 inches away from blade.
This is the only movement I cannot do, can anyone advie on waht my problem is?
.

[@MXDGMO]

after testing all the muscle function do not forget to request an MRI scan!!!

[@ajhpetlover]

Does the patient's face show apprehension because of the pain of moving affected shoulder like that or is it some involuntary reflex with shoulder pathology?

[@junxi]

awesome video thanks

[@aliagha50]

Thank you , very useful .

[@StewNWT]

fantastic video, thanl you very much

[@rmcdaniel423]

If you put your right hand behind your back and try to push AWAY from your back, that is primarily subscapularis (part of your "rotator cuff"). Reaching way UP like that young limber girl actually gets a little more complex. Flexibility issues and elbow joint involvement sort of make that specific test (the how-high-can-you-reach toward your shoulder blade test) less useful, in my opinion. Bear in mind, I'm still a student.
The big question is: how much does it affect your daily activities?

[@Sadoos]

@chriscumbag Yeah. I sometimes watch them before I go to sleep :)

[@als7aimy]

very useful video
thanx

[@NuJoiseyMAN]

I wonder if anyone can help me... what are the side effects of having shoulders that are not asymmetrical?

[@lloydsimoesable]

the subtitles are wrongly written. its should be "graded on the 5 point scale for muscle testing" and not greater than the 5 point scale as currently written, also its neers sign, not nearest sign..looks like someone who subtitled it had no idea what it means at all..

[@radya18102007]

nice video...really2 like it
from indonesia

[@jokfly]

excellent

[@svfox]

very informative

[@DoctorMustafaSaad]

nice video..

[@riksanyr8494]

Sure would have been nice if she told us WHAT tests she was performing.....

[@badger5079]

@ajhpetlover
Fear of increasing pain. Not an involuntary reflex.

[@G00n3r4Life]

what about for sternoclavicular joint?

[@radya18102007]

nice video...really2 like it

[@blahboom2]

very nice. I like.

[@seanschneider8513]

Goo

[@vahidali6471]

Good

[@a1098493]

the video has a female patient, so it's appropriate to use gender specific terms
