Special testing/shoulder exam - distraction


Posted: Nov 07, 2012

Is there an FAR or FAIR special test for shoulder derangement? Seems as though I heard of this once but cannot find it now in any of my resources or online. Thanks

Flexion, Adduction and Internal Rotation - possibly?

[ In Reply To ..]
which would be FAIR-test?

This is actually to test sciatic nerve irritation - possibly?

[ In Reply To ..]
but, it is the only test I know of referred to as the FAIR test.

Most likely - distraction

[ In Reply To ..]
I think FAIR is most likely. He is saying each letter distinctly and separately. That sounds familiar now that I see/hear it.
Thank you all for assistance.

Not FAIR but FADIR - Ortho Pro

Flexion, adduction, internal rotation is the fadir or FADIR sign (all lowercase according to the latest Ortho Stedman's).

Neer, maybe - n/m

After 2 rounds of that, I quit making these summary sheets. I get so many different accounts now that I never get a chance to become familiar with the CP or dictator.

Nuance - Escription - "Special" Foot Pedal

We were told by HR that the hospital will let us keep the computers we have been working on, but that Nuance will be sending us the "special" Escription foot pedals. Is this true? I have never worked on Escription before. Does it require its own pedal? I am so heartsick about this transition but at this time, I have no other options. I am going to go into this with the thought of doing my work, ...
