PT Intervention: Provide a joint mobilization "reset" technique to the right Glenohumeral Joint to increase shoulder flexion for a patient in the late remodeling stage of tissue healing with no tissue reactivity. Dosage (e.g., grade, reps, sets, oscillations, hold time, range, position, pain reproductions, etc.) What special tests would be used? Describe the PT interventions.

1Provide patient with OP during flex, scap or abd. Take to end range and apply 3 OPs in each direction to see if there is a reproduction of pain. Does this movement produce pain? Is it familiar? ***only apply OP if the active motion does not produce (+) or re-produce (++) PT intervention: -inf glide with shldr flex to near end range w/elbow bent. -Grade III or IV -4x30 sec oscillations

Card 23. ICF Classification: Subacromial Pain (SAP) with Mobility Deficit Physical Examination - Joint Play Assessment: The patient has right anterolateral shoulder pain at end range arm elevation. Perform Joint Play Assessment (JPA) to the Scapulothoracic Joint (i.e., scapular superior/inferior glide & upward/downward rotation). Note: Perform bilateral comparison. NB: 1) This is a stiffness dominant patient and 2) Explain findings to the patient in layman's terms. PT Intervention: Provide a joint mobilization "reset" technique to the right Glenohumeral Joint to increase shoulder abduction for a patient in the late remodeling (maturation) stage of tissue healing with no tissue reactivity. Dosage (e.g., grade, reps, sets, oscillations, hold time, range, position, pain reproductions, etc.). Describe the PT interventions.

PT intervention: Grade III inferior glide near restriction to increase ABD. 4 sets of 30 sec (oscillations)

Card 1: ICF Classification: Subacromial Pain (SAP) with Overuse/Overload Subjective Examination: The patient is a 33-year-old tree trimmer that has right shoulder pain while working overhead. Hobbies: Plays tennis with their doubles partner every Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Service: To give back to their community, the patient washes the stain-glass windows at this church on the weekends.Special Questions/Aggravating Factors: Determine occupational- &/or hobby-related activities that aggravates your patient's right shoulder symptoms. What is your patient's baseline (resting) pain level? Irritability: Are your patient's symptoms easy or difficult to aggravate? How intense are the symptoms? How long do the provoked symptoms last after the activity has ceased? PT intervention: Provide your patient with a "re-education" intervention (e.g., counseling, etc.) that match the Subjective Examination findings. *Describe the PT intervention

PT intervention: Re-educate patient on use of active rest by reducing load and frequency with his hobbies. Ask if during work he can be put in a position in which he is not reaching overhead, but instead trimming at shoulder level. For the stain glass window same thing. Ask if he can use a taller ladder to not put himself in positions that cause aggravation, which are overhead. Make sure when you are lowering your work tools to bring them closer to your body by bending your elbows, such as the chainsaw so its less stress on the shoulder. Keep elbows close to body to reduce repetitive stress and load on your shoulder. *if night pain then and sleep on back, prop involved arm on shoulder, if SL sleeper, sleep on the uninvolved shoulder and stack 1-2 pillows under involved arm to prop up, for stomach sleepers, not really recommended.

Card 7. ICF Classification: Subacromial Pain (SAP) with Mobility Deficit Physical Examination - AROM with Over-pressure (OP): The patient has shoulder pain while performing right Hand Behind Back (HBB) functional activities. Using AROM with OP determine which of the three (3) combined movements are responsible for your patient's symptoms (i.e., adduction, internal rotation, and extension). If painful, which isolated movement(s) most fully reproduced the patient's familiar pain? How intense was the pain? Note: Perform a bilateral comparison, right-sided involvement. Explain findings to the patient in layman's terms. PT Intervention: Provide a joint mobilization "reset" technique to the right Glenohumeral Joint to increase shoulder extension for a patient in the early remodeling stage of tissue healing with low tissue reactivity. Dosage (e.g., grade, reps, sets, oscillations, hold time, range, position, pain reproductions, etc.) What special tests would be used? Describe the PT interventions.

Physical Exam 1. AROM w/OP for HBB w/OP applied to ext, ADD, IR. 2. With each OP ask patient if they are having a reproduction of pain. Is it familiar? Ask after each OP. 3. On a scale from 0-10, what is your pain level? 4. Perform B/L. L first PT intervention: -GH Jt mob to inc shldr ext in prone (Ant. Glide) place patient prone in OPP with shldr ABD 55° and H.ADD 30° if possible. -Dosage: 4 sets od -30sec of oscillations of Grade III(large at mid-end range) or IV (small at end range) -Position: Place pat in OPP 7. Pain reproduction: *shldr extension measurement (0-60°), (prone, stationary arm: // to trunk, moving arm: // to humerus (lat. Epicondyle), axis: tip of acromion) *can have patient do motion again and ask if the pain reproduction is the same as it was before.

Card 16. ICF Classification: Subacromial Pain (SAP) with Mobility Deficit Physical Examination - Passive Range of Motion/Muscle Length Assessment: The patient has right anterolateral shoulder pain and limited passive shoulder External Rotation. Perform two (2) PROM assessments to differentiate between tightness of the Subscapular Muscle and Adhesive Capsulitis (global capsule). Note: Perform a bilateral comparison. NB: Explain findings to the patient in layman's terms. Was this a Joint Mobility Dysfunction or a Tissue Extensibility Dysfunction? PT Intervention: Provide a muscle stretching "reset" technique to the muscle tested above for a patient in the late remodeling (maturation) stage of tissue healing with no tissue reactivity. Dosage (e.g., grade, sets, hold time, pain reproductions, etc.) Note: Static or Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) stretching (i.e., contract/relax, hold/relax). What are the Subscapularis and adhesive capsulitis tests? Describe the PT interventions.

Physical Exam: -Subscap test: take patient into 90° of ER by side, see if tightness -Adhesive capsulitis test: Take patient into 90ABD/90ER to see if there is tightness/pain. Will have less PROM of ER in this position PT intervention: 1. Subscapularis muscle stretch: can do HR or CR going into ER (7, 15, 20) near end range bc IR are tight. 2. Ask about pain

Card 15. ICF Classification: Subacromial Pain (SAP) with Mobility Deficit Physical Examination - Passive Range of Motion: The patient has right anterolateral shoulder pain and a positive "Scare Crow" Test on the right. Perform one (1) PROM assessment to rule in or rule out Glenohumeral Internal Rotation Deficit (GIRD). Note: Perform bilateral comparison. NB: Explain findings to the patient in layman's terms. PT Intervention: Provide a manual Mobilization with Movement (MWMs) "reset" technique to the right posteroinferior glenohumeral structures. Example: "Glide & Wind" technique either oscillations or 1- minute hold (with or without a mobilization belt). Dosage (e.g., grade, force, reps, sets, oscillations, hold time, range, position, pain reproductions, etc.) What special tests would be used? Describe the PT interventions.

Physical Exam: 1. (+) scarecrow means loss of IR 2. Assessment to rule out GIRD: measure IR and ER and measure B/L. If more than 15° difference between L and R IR in shoulders, and loss of total rotation (less than 180°) then GIRD. They may also have a (+) sulcus sign and tight pec minor PT interventions: -Mob for 2 min -If lacks IR, tight external rotators so take arm to 90°ABD (forearm IRed so facing out) and then into end range of IR, posterior glide on humeral head and perform oscillations into end range. 4 sets of 30 sec or static hold for 1 min.

Card 12. ICF Classification: Subacromial Pain (SAP) with Mobility Deficit Physical Examination - Apley's Scratch Test - 3-Tests: The patient has right anterolateral shoulder pain while performing end-range functional tasks. Instruct the patient to perform all three (3) directions of the Apley's Scratch Test to determine functional ability (e.g., eating/shaving, grooming hair/scratching upper back, and hand behind back activities). Also determine each of the 3-movements effect on the patient's right shoulder symptoms. Explain findings to the patient in layman's terms. PT Intervention: Provide a joint mobilization "reset" technique to the right Glenohumeral Joint to increase shoulder flexion so that they can groom their hair for a patient in the late remodeling (maturation) stage of tissue healing with no tissue reactivity. Dosage (e.g., grade, reps, sets, oscillations, hold time, range, position, pain reproductions, etc.) (Week 3) Helpful Hint: Shoulder positioned near resistance in approximately 90° of shoulder flexion. What special tests would be used? Describe the PT interventions.

Physical exam: 1. Have patient perform Apley's scratch test (3 directions) Ask if any of the motions reproduce pain. -1. Have patient reach across their chest and the hand of affected arm to the opposite shoulder. *Observe if patient is unable to do so (inability to do this include restrictions in GH H.ADD/IR, Scap protraction (ADD and IR) -2. Have patient perform an overhead reach and try and touch superior angle of opposite scapula, *observe if they are unable to do so. (inability to do this would include restrictions in GH flex/ER/ABD, and scapular UR/Post Tilt/Elev/Retract (ADD/ER)) PT intervention: Either posterior or inferior glide is needed, depending on how high their can get their shldr. Glide near restriction. -Grade III glide, 4 x 30 sec (oscillations)
