The Combined Elevation Test (CET) is a musculoskeletal screening technique originally developed by Blanch that involves a synchronized movement of thoracic extension, glenohumeral joint (GHJ) flexion, scapula retraction and upward rotation.It replicates the streamline position in swimming and is commonly used to assess the strength of upper extremity and flexibilty of shoulder (glenohumeral joint and scapulo thoracic joint) and thoracic spine.

Introduction and Purpose[edit | edit source]
The Combined Elevation Test (CET) is a musculoskeletal screening technique originally developed by Blanch that involves a synchronized movement of thoracic extension, glenohumeral joint (GHJ) flexion, scapula retraction and upward rotation.It replicates the streamline position in swimming and is commonly used to assess the strength of upper extremity and flexibilty of shoulder (glenohumeral joint and scapulo thoracic joint) and thoracic spine. It has been widely used in various sports such as cricket, rugby union, triathlon and surf lifesaving.[1]
Sport-specific musculoskeletal screening techniques (MSTs) are used in the identification of intrinsic risk factors for injury determining whether a patient can achieve a minimum standard for participation in a particular sport and to assist in appropriate goal setting.[2]
