AC Joint injury Special Tests Cluster

Welcome to our comprehensive video on AC joint injury special tests! If you've ever experienced shoulder pain or suspect an AC joint injury, you're in the right place. In this video, we will explore a range of specialized tests used by healthcare professionals to assess AC joint injuries, providing you with valuable insights into the diagnostic process.
The acromioclavicular (AC) joint is a crucial structure that connects the collarbone (clavicle) to the shoulder blade (scapula). It plays a significant role in shoulder stability and allows for proper movement and function. However, the AC joint is susceptible to injuries, such as sprains, separations, or arthritis, which can cause pain, limited mobility, and functional limitations.
Throughout this video, our experienced physio will guide you through a series of AC joint injury special tests, explaining their purpose, technique, and interpretation in detail. By understanding these tests, you will gain valuable knowledge about assessing and diagnosing AC joint injuries.
Some of the AC joint injury special tests we will cover include:
Cross-body Adduction Test: An examination technique used to assess AC joint integrity and reproduce pain during specific shoulder movements.
Shear Test (horizontal adduction): A test that evaluates the stability of the AC joint by applying horizontal forces on the shoulder.
O'Brien's Test: An assessment technique used to identify labral tears or AC joint pathology.
It's important to note that these tests should always be performed by trained professionals in a clinical setting. Seeking medical advice and guidance is crucial if you suspect an AC joint injury or experience persistent shoulder pain.
Whether you're a healthcare professional, a student, or someone interested in understanding AC joint injuries, this video will provide you with a wealth of knowledge and insights. Our goal is to empower you with information to better comprehend the assessment process and the significance of AC joint injury special tests.
