Shouldr abduction strength seems like a strange choice of objective measure to use when this is not the primary movement of any of the rotator cuff muscles and also probably not the most valuable movement to a baseball player? Just my quick 2 cents for what it's worth. Still interesting results otherwise.
Yes it’s an interesting thought compared to testing External and Internal Rotation more specifically… we know that , as you said whilst the rotator cuff does not create abduction primarily, the rotator cuff is active during the vast majority of, if not all, lifting movements of the shoulder … interesting point though 👍🏼
Hi Khalid, fab video! I wanted to ask if there were any other considerations you would have for rotator cuff tears in the general public/elderly? Does the indication for surgery come down to functional ability? Should conservative management always be followed as first line treatments even for full thickness tears? If so, do we allow longer healing times for elderly + is the Anterior Shoulder Program a viable choice? Love to hear your thoughts
So the key thing here is that it indicates that partial tears of the rotator cuff may not even create symptoms, which definitely highlights that patients don’t require surgery automatically when there is presence of a partial tear
@@ClinicalPhysio but assuming there’s no pain but evidence of a partial tear would that be significant enough to justify therapeutic exercises? I’d assume so but the phrasing made it sound like it’s only necessary if it causes pain. But if that’s the case wouldn’t that put the patient at risk of further injury? Any clarification would be appreciated. Thanks :)
@@calviningemi4428 yes it’s absolutely fine to therapeutic exercises with or without pain. If someone didn’t have pain, they only this would be picked up would be via scan. In the mean time that athlete will still be in the gym doing their exercises showing that they would like be doing physio anyway

@@ClinicalPhysio Thank you for your response. Enjoying your app for some brushing up on my respiratory knowledge!
@@thomast6823 😊😊🙏🏼🙏🏼
thank you! very informative video!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
why did they test abduction strength rather than testing external rotation in the study you mention at around 7.20 minutes?
That’s a good question which I can’t answer for you!
Can you make us a video how we can treat supraspinatus tendon tear at home? I really appreciate what you're doing!
Thank you! Hope we can do so one day!

Solid Information.
Thank you so much!
Great vids! Keep it up! // Physio from Stockholm
Thank you so much!
is there any research comparing surgery vs conservative though? this doesnt really seem to explain the difference

This video was great and its format, looking forward to more videos like this!
Thank you so much!
Better to teach anatomy classes .sir 👍
Thank you! We absolutely will!
Thanks for the breakdown. Makes a lot of sense.
🙏🏼🙏🏼 you’re very welcome!
Khaled, my favourite physiotherapy educator! 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much! Very pleased you enjoyed it!
why does it take u 9 min to explain smth? make shorter videos in my opinion
Thank you!
A gamer, I presume?
Take a deep breath, relax.
