Purpose[edit | edit source]
The purpose of this article is to help healthcare providers differentiate between shoulder impingement and instability by utilizing the most current literature.
Impingement[edit | edit source]
Individual special tests for sub-acromial impingement have varying psychometric properties. For this reason, it is best to utilize special test clusters in order to diagnose this injury. Two special test clusters are provided below that can be used in order to diagnose sub-acromial impingement[1].
| Sensitivity | Specificity | Accuracy% | PPV% | NPV% | |
| Hawkins-Kennedy | .92 | .25 | 72.8 | 75.2 | 56.2 |
| Neers | .89 | .31 | 72.0 | 75.9 | 52.3 |
| Horizontal-adduction | .82 | .28 | 66.4 | 73.7 | 38.4 |
| Speed | .69 | .56 | 64.8 | 79.2 | 41.6 |
| Yergason | .37 | .86 | 51.2 | 86.8 | 35.6 |
| Painful arc | .33 | .81 | 46.4 | 80.5 | 32.5 |
| Drop arm | .08 | .97 | 33.6 | 87.5 | 29.9 |
A total of 5 positive special tests is indicative for subacromial impingement[1].
| Positive tests | Sensitivity | Specificity | Accuracy% | PPV% | NPV% |
| All positive | .04 | .97 | 31.2 | 80.0 | 29.1 |
| ≥6 positive | .30 | .89 | 47.2 | 87.0 | 34.0 |
| ≥5 positive | .38 | .86 | 52.0 | 87.1 | 36.0 |
| ≥4 positive | .70 | .67 | 68.8 | 83.7 | 47.0 |
| ≥3 positive | .84 | .44 | 72.8 | 72.8 | 44.4 |
Accuracy: The percentage of time that the result of the test reflects the true nature of the condition
A second cluster utilizes a slightly different set of special tests[2].
| Sensitivity | Specificity | Positive LR | Negative LR | |
| Hawkins-Kennedy | .63 | .62 | 1.63 | .61 |
| Neers | .81 | .54 | 1.17 | .35 |
| Painful arc | .75 | .67 | 2.25 | .38 |
| Empty can | .50 | .87 | 3.90 | .57 |
| External rotation resistance | .56 | .87 | 4.39 | .50 |
Any combination of 3 or more positive tests are indicative of sub-acromial impingement[2]
| Sensitivity | Specificity | Positive LR | Negative LR | |
| 3+ positive tests | .75 | .74 | 2.93 | .34 |
Instability[edit | edit source]
| Test | Sensitivity | Specificity | +LR | -LR |
| Apprehension test | .72 | .96 | 20.2 | .29 |
| Relocation test | .81 | .92 | 10.4 | .20 |
| Anterior drawer test | .53 | .85 | 3.57 | .56 |
Instability can be categorized in a few different ways, including anterior, posterior and multidirectional instability. The 3 tests above focus on the diagnosis for anterior shoulder instability[3].
| Positive tests | Sensitivity | Specificity | +LR | -LR |
| Apprehension, relocation and anterior drawer tests | .48 | .99 | 39.1 | .52 |
| Apprehension and relocation tests | .81 | .98 | 39.7 | .19 |
| Relocation and anterior drawer tests | .48 | .96 | 18.0 | .54 |
| Apprehension and anterior drawer tests | .46 | .98 | 23.1 | .55 |
The above table represents a cluster to help rule in favor of an anterior shoulder instability diagnosis[3]. With positive results of any 2 tests or more, you can be fairly confident ruling in favor of anterior shoulder instability. It should be noted that the apprehension test is only positive in the presence of apprehension and the relocation test is considered positive with the relief of apprehension. In addition, the anterior drawer test is positive when symptoms of instability are reproduced.
The tests below[4][5] are additional diagnostic tests for instability which may assist you in your examination, however they are not a part of the above mentioned cluster.
| Sensitivity | Specificity | +LR | -LR | |
| Anterior release test | .92 | .89 | 8.6 | .09 |
| Sensitivity | Specificity | +LR | -LR | |
| Sulcus Sign | .17 | .93 | 2.43 | .89 |
+LR: describes how much the odds of impingement increase with a positive test
-LR: describes how much the odds of impingement decrease with a negative test
