The _________ test is used to assess posterior stability in the seated position.

______________ is the most sensitive diagnostic test for identifying lesions of the posterior labrum and capsule.

Most patients with multi directional instability present with a chief complaint of _____________, but they may also report decreased strength or athletic performance.

The ________________ was the original operative procedure for multidirectional instability described by Neer and Foster, in which they performed a humeral-based shift to eliminate capsular redundancy.

In general, the risk of recurrence of instability following MDI surgery is higher than the risk of stiffness, and therefore use of a cautious approach is best. The shoulder is placed in neutral rotation for ____weeks using an immobilizer with a slight abduction pillow.

Which of the following are clinical examination tests for Slap lesions?

______________ remains the most common tool used to diagnose labral pathology.

Arthroscopic _____________ may be the appropriate choice for older patients, in a revision situation, or for a type IV SLAP lesion?

Because of the relatively high incidence of postoperative stiffness, pendulum exercises are begun immediately, and physical therapy is begun with passive and active assisted exercises _________ days after SLAP repair surgery.

Which of the following is not a common complication of SLAP repairs?

In the throwing athlete,  _______________  is characterized by contact of the articular surface of the rotator cuff and the greater tuberosity with the posterior and superior glenoid rim and labrum in the position of ER and abduction of the arm.

Kibler and Thomas described ____________ as an alteration of static scapular position or dynamic scapular motion in coordination with arm motion.

Athletes are allowed to start an interval throwing program 4 months after rotator cuff surgery. At _______ months, pitchers are allowed to throw from the mound with maximal effort, provided they have full ROM, normal strength, and are symptom free after completing the interval program.

The goals of phase II rehabilitation for biceps tenodesis include all of the following except _______________.

Without the stabilizing, synergistic action of the supraspinatus, the humeral head would displace superiorly as the ___________ contracts, resulting in impingement of the rotator cuff between the humeral head and the undersurface of the acromion.

Fatigue of the scapular rotators on the chest wall leads to inability of the scapula to rotate properly and prevents the acromion from getting out of the way when the arm is elevated. This situation is termed _______________?

The supraspinatus insertion, also known as _______________, is palpated through the deltoid just distal to the anterolateral border of the acromion with the shoulder extended and internally rotated.

Non-operative treatment for shoulder injuries is in essence an extension of preventive management with the addition of specific measures dealing with the injury. It can be divided into all of the following components except _________.

With regard to partial-thickness cuff tears, the author would currently perform only a debridement of the cuff if the tear involves less than _________of the tendon.

In the traumatic setting, injuries typically are sustained to the subscapularis with the arm in ___________________.

Which of the following are classification of scubscapularis tendon tears?

The most common mechanism of injury to the ________________ is related to excessive stress during weightlifting, particularly while bench pressing.

The usual mechanism of injury to the _________________ involves a sudden overwhelming extension force on an outstretched arm.

The terms frozen shoulder and _____________ are unfortunately used interchangeably, leading to confusion and ambiguity in shoulder stiffness nomenclature literature.

_____________is another form of progressive glenohumeral arthritis that may be encountered during evaluation of the shoulder of a young athlete with arthritic disease.
