| Assessment for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome |
|
Definition
1. Most sensitive: thumb abduction by asking the patient to raise the thumb straight up as you apply downward resistance
2. Tinel’s sign: tingling with tapping over the median nerve as it enters the carpal tunnel
3. Phalen’s sign: numbness or tingling with pressing backs of hands together in acute flexion for 60 seconds |

Term
|
Definition
Flexion and extension: chin to chest, look up at ceiling
Rotation and lateral bending: look over one shoulder and then the other; bring ear to shoulder |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Flexion and extension: bend forward and try to touch toes; bend backward
Rotation and lateral bending: rotate trunk (pull shoulder and then the opposite hip posteriorly); bend to side from waist |

Term
|
Definition
| flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, rotation |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A fluid wave or bulge on the medial side between the patella and the femur is considered a positive bulge sign consistent with a minor effusion |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When the knee joint contains a large effusion, suprapatellar compression ejects fluid into the spaces adjacent to the patella. A palpable fluid wave signifies a positive “balloon sign.” A returning fluid wave into the suprapatellar pouch confirms a major effusion. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| To assess large effusions, you can also compress the suprapatellar pouch and “ballotte” or push the patella sharply against the femur. Watch for fluid returning to the suprapatellar pouch |
