would have been nice if you said what this was indicative of, or what was being pinched in the subacromial space. For those that are wondering, this test is thought to be for a supraspinatous impingement.

@AntinuclearAntibody lol dude take it easy. autoantibody is the scientifically correct term, to be exact. it is called anticulcear antibody for simplicity but strictly speaking that is incorrect, as it implies a immune response to a foreign body not a reaction against own tissue.

@AntinuclearAntibody your name should be antinuclear AUTOantibody, suggestive of SLE =)

These videos are intended to go along with my webinar series. A painful arc can mean many different things. impingement of the distal end of the supraspinatus tendon is one. A painful arc with no other symptoms indicates a chronic bursitis while painful resisted medial rotation and a painful arc means a pinching of the upper half of the subscapularis tendon. Dr B
