Cozen test/tennis elbow test
(lateral epicondylalgia) The patient's elbow is stabilized by the examiner's thumb (1st
digit), which rests on the lateral epicondyle. The patient is asked to pronate the forearm,
make a fist, and extend the wrist while the examiner resists the motion
test to assess for de Quervain syndrome
the examiner has the patient make a fist with the thumb (1st digit) tucked inside the
fingers. The examiner stabilizes the forearm and deviates the wrist toward the ulnar
side. This test is positive for de Quervain syndrome if there is pain over the abductor
pollicis longus and extensor pollicis brevis tendons.
Phalen test
wrists are flexed downward with backs of each hand in contact / carpal tunnel patients
experience tingling or pain within 60 seconds
Carpal compression test
pressure with examiner's thumb over patient's carpal tunnel for 30 seconds reproduces
symptoms

, Calcaneus Tilt Test
diagnostic for lateral collateral instability. The lateral collateral ligament prevents
inversion of the ankle
Thompson Test
compression of the calf muscle while observing for plantar flexion to assess the stability
of the Achilles tendon
Fibula translation test
test to assess for syndesmosis injuries at the ankle after inversion trauma.
To perform this test have your patient in side-lying position and stand on the side of your
patient's heel.
Then fixate the tibia with one hand and perform the translations of the fibula with your
other hand anteriorly and posteriorly.
This test is positive for syndesmosis injury if pain occurs during the translations or if the
movement is greater on the affected side compared with the unaffected side.
Use of a metatarsal pad would be MOST beneficial for a patient who has which of the
following conditions?
1.Plantar fasciitis
2.Morton neuroma
3.Tarsal tunnel syndrome
4.Tibialis anterior tendinitis
