Zaslav test for to shoulder joint

Zaslav test for to shoulder joint :

  • It is also known as to internal means medial rotation resistance strength test [ IRRST].
  • This test is used by to therapist of doctor for to check the impingement of shoulder.
  • This test is follow up to Neer test .
  • This test is mostly used to for the check anterior shoulder impingement.
  • This impingement is give to compress to anterior ascept of to knee .

What is Purpose of to Zaslav test ?

  • This Zaslav test is used to identify of to subacromial impingement syndrome.
  • It is used to check the impingement of to shoulder joint .
  • Tt is also used to check the differentiate between an outlet means subacromial impingement & an intra-articular means non outlet problem when to examiner is found to Neer test is to positive.

  • Into this position with to arm abducted to 90 ‘ & do the laterally rotated means external rotated of shoulder joint up to 80 ‘ – 85 ‘.
  • After that examiner is applies to isometric resistance into lateral rotation followed by isometric resistance into medial rotation means internal rotation of to shoulder .

What is result of to Zaslav test ?

  • This test is consider to positive in a patient who has good strength in lateral rotation means external rotation but not medial rotation means internal rotation so that it is indicate to internal impingement .
  • If to patient exhibits more weakness on lateral rotation it is indicate to classic external anterior impingement .

Some other thing about to Zaslav test ?

  • It is check to anterior impingement of to shoulder regardless cause of to impingement is rotator cuff pathology , scapular or humeral instability , labral pathology .
  • Because of this causes structures being compressed into anterior aspect of to humerus between to head of to humerus & to corocoid process under to acromion process .
  • Probability of this test is good for to check the impingement of to shoulder .
  • But it is not best for to check the full thickness of rotator cuff tears .
