Answer:
timed test involving picking up, holding, manipulating, and identifying small objects - used with children and cognitively impaired adults
Question 5: Neer's Test
Answer:
testing for supraspinatus impingement Examiner flexes the GH joint while in internal rotation Positive = pain in subacromial region
Question 6: Midcarpal Shift Test
Answer:
place a direct load over the capitate while and ulnar and palmarly deviating the wrist, while also applying an axial pressure Positive = painful click
Question 7: Ulnar Fovea Sign
Answer:
detects foveal disruptions and or ulnotriqutral ligament injuries Positive = pressure in interval between ulnar styloid process and FCU tendon, pain reproduced
Question 8: Froment's sign
Answer:
motor sign of ulnar neuropathy (adductor pollicis) Positive = significant IP flexion when pinching a piece of paper
Question 9: Cozen's Test
Answer:
testing for lat epi Manually resist wrist ext/RD while elbow is flexed and pronated Palpate lat epi Positive = pain reproduction
Question 10: Phalen's test
Answer:
passive wrist flexion for 15-60 seconds, positive reproduces numbness and tingling in median nerve distribution
Question 11: Radial nerve test for radial tunnel
Answer:
testing for compression of posterior interosseous nerve branch of radial nerve Elbow in extension, resist forearm supination Positive = pain 4-5 cm distal to lat epi Make sure to rule out lat epic first!
Question 12: Two point discrimination

Question 20: Reverse Phalen's Test
Answer:
passive wrist extension for 15-60 seconds, positive test produces numbness and tingling in median nerve distribution
Question 21: Medial epicondyle test
Answer:
testing for lat epi Manually resist wrist ext/RD while elbow is flexed and pronated Palpate lat epi Positive = pain reproduction

Answer:
atrophy, edema, congruency of bony landmarks, nodules/wrinkles/calluses/contractures/deformities, cascade of metacarpals, redness, skin changes
Question 23: Semmes Weinstein Monofilament Test
Answer:
standardized, valid and sensitive Ability to discriminate light touch to deep pressure Tests innervation of median, ulnar, and radial nerves
