Description
1. Advanced functional and qualitative testing a. Test batteries for the
assessment of movement quality for different populations (FMS testing, test
batteries for elderly) b. Clinical assessment of selected movement patterns
(squat, lunge, jump, landing) 2. Clinical assessment of the upper limb
a. Clinical tests for injuries of muscles and ligaments of the shoulder girdle
and shoulder joint b. Clinical tests for injuries of muscles and ligaments of
the elbow and the wrist c. Clinical examination for selected chronic disorders
of the upper limb (epicondylitis, carpal tunnel syndrome) d. Detailed
examination for individual injuries in the upper limb (rotator cuff injuries,
subacromial impingement, SLAP lesion, bursitis, shoulder instability).
3. Clinical assessment of the lower limb a. Clinical tests for injuries of
muscles and ligaments of the hip joint b. Clinical tests for injuries of muscles
and ligaments of the knee joint c. Clinical tests for injuries of muscles and
ligaments of the ankle and the foot d. Clinical examination for selected chronic
disorders of the lower limb (jumper’s knee, patellofemoral syndrome, chronic
ankle instability) e. Test for suspected fractures in case of acute injuries
(Ottawa rules for ankle and knee) f. Detailed examination for individual
injuries in the lower limb (hip impingements, muscle tears, stress fractures,
cruciate ligaments injuries, collateral knee ligaments injuries, meniscal
injuries, injuries to the Achilles tendon). 4. Clinical assessment of the trunk
and the spine a. Clinical tests for the injuries of intervertebral joints
b. Clinical tests for disc herniation and other injurie of the intervertebral
discs c. Clinical tests for chronic degenerations of the spine (spinal stenosis,
degeneration of the intervertebral discs) d. Clinical battery of tests for
assessment of possible injuries or irritations in the sacroiliac joint
5. Integration of knowledge for comprehensive testing a. Considering the
anamnesis before the selection of the clinical tests b. Choosing and performing
the appropriate clinical tests c. Integration of the results and comprehensive
interpretation of the clinical outcomes
