Apley's scratch test; maybe he is leaving out the scratch and saying Apley's test. It is used to evaluate range of motion in a shoulder injury
His right shoulder has 180° forward flexion, external rotation to 97° in the abducted 90° position with positive apprehension sign and pain.
This is exactly what he says. Does it make sense? ...
"his strength is 3-4+/5+ in the *sis* position as well as in abduction. His passive glenohumeral range of motion is 80-20-10." It sounds like he is saying "cyst", but that doesn't make sense to me. ...
Been doing ortho for quite a long time but can't figure this one out... biceps tests including Speed, Yergason, and s/l "mamori" are all negative.
Any help?: ...
Neurologic examination of his lower extremities is fully intact, including motor, sensory, and deep tendon reflexes. Straight leg raising tests are negative. s/l "Stewart" test is positive bilaterally.
thanks for any help! ...
He is testing a patient who has shoulder strain. "I can feel some crepitation as he moves his scapula across his s/l long field."
I've never heard this before. Maybe "lung field", but in an external ortho test that seems odd. Any thoughts? ...
I must be way off because I can't find it in my books either. Thanks for any help.
DDH of the left hip.
Examination of her hips today showed _____, Ortolani, and Barlow tests are negative. Hips are quite stable. ...
The patient had a shoulder MRI. The doctor say:
No obvious-appearing instability or injury to the coracoclavicular or ---s/l clochoclavicular---- ligaments on the MRI.
Thanks. ...
Doc is talking about pts shoulder and says: She had a normal (s/l Mieres), Hawkins, and Jobes tests. Can someone give me the correct spelling of Mieres? Thx CM ...
Ortho doc is dictating PSH and he's stating the patient had a right shoulder histo. Any idea what histo means?
Thanks so much in advance. Hope you're having a good night! ...
This is what she says:
INSTRUMENTS USED: A Stryker 5.0 BioZip anchor with a #2 Force Fiber x2, and a PEEK SSS nutless disposable Relix STT 5.5-mm anchor x2.
I cannot verify the "PEEK SSS nutless disposable relix STT" is correct. Any help is much appreciated! ...
new to this account.....he says
I also performed injection of her tendon sheath of her extensor tendon insertion origin with 1 cc of Lidocaine and 1 cc of Kenalog. Her ?JMARS? are left 18, 21, and 21 and right 10, 16, 18. ...
He has pain in the intrascapular area of the right shoulder.
I can't tell if the doc says intrascapular or interscapular. Are they interchangeable? I am inclined towards him saying intra- but I can't be sure and can't ask him.
thanks. ...
Dictated: Treatment options were discussed with him. These include repeat selective AC joint injection, s/l mulfer type (or tight or tech) distal clavicle, or living with residual symptoms.
He just slurs right over this. Any help, thank you! ...
He is nontender over the s/l (bony girdle) s/l (above) the clavicle and the scapula.
He is nontender at the elbow and wrist. He has good s/l (dorsalis) or s/l (radial) pulses and the sensation and grip strength is equal. ...
An old and chronic problem I have when doing MT work is that my right shoulder aches after just a shor time at the keyboard. (I am left-handed). It seems the constant mouse movement irritate it a lot. I am now doing VRE type work and boy has it made it worse. I know my right side is probably weaker than my left and I can work on strengthening it somehow but I wondered if anyone has any ideas for this? I do not like being in pain. I've thought about a new chair ...
