@ACadogan_NZ @JeremyLewisPT @burleychasiss @MindyCairns @RachelChesterPT Similar findings to us 👇- an injection in our study was ‘life changing’ and gave ‘light at the end of the tunnel’ for people living with frozen shoulder who had felt ‘if you were an animal you would be put down because your miserable’

@JeremyLewisPT @burleychasiss @MindyCairns @RachelChesterPT Brilliant 👏. Exploring & addressing beliefs is so impt. Pts often say "I feel better already" simply after explanation (even before injection). Well done team. Great study. 👍

@MScPhysio @FisioGuillem @ShoulderGeek1 @ShoulderDocUK @shoulderexperts @AdamMeakins @anncools4 I don't use PNF as a technique very often but I use PNF patterns a lot in rehabilitation exercises, especially for instability & peri-scapular conditions. Do you find it useful?

[Angela Cadogan @ACadogan_NZ]

Interesting case here and some great advice if you are seeing these patients. It can be complex. Identifying the main driver is key.

Very sorry to tag you without permission, feel free to block me if you find it inappropriate, but I am dumbfounded with this patient and I would like to ask for help 1/

@FisioGuillem @ChrisLittlew00d @ShoulderGeek1 @ShoulderDocUK @shoulderexperts @AdamMeakins @anncools4 4/4: Cortical planning: This may be the easiest of the 3 to assess. Can you change symptoms by focusing on specific task, pre-planning movement, using external cues or integrating the kinetic chain? If symptoms change, use this as the start point for rehab. Hope this helps.

@FisioGuillem @ChrisLittlew00d @ShoulderGeek1 @ShoulderDocUK @shoulderexperts @AdamMeakins @anncools4 1/4: I see you have had some great advice for this complex problem Willem! I agree that finding the main driver is key. Here is my approach to these pts which is based on assessing each component of motor control then targeting rehabilitation according to findings….

[Angela Cadogan @ACadogan_NZ]

@FisioGuillem @ChrisLittlew00d @ShoulderGeek1 @ShoulderDocUK @shoulderexperts @AdamMeakins @anncools4 ¾: Sensory processing: Processing of sensory input can be affected by many things including cognitive, emotions, mood, fear, previous psych trauma, head injuries, pain & neurodiversity to name a few. This can get complex and if there are sig issues, MD input may be needed.

[Angela Cadogan @ACadogan_NZ]

@FisioGuillem @ChrisLittlew00d @ShoulderGeek1 @ShoulderDocUK @shoulderexperts @AdamMeakins @anncools4 2/4: Sensory input: Bad information in = poor motor control out. Do they have any detection, discrimination and localisation deficits? This may need addressing if found. Sometimes tactile input, taping, mirror feedback etc can help.

@myelbowdoc @AnjuJaggi Happy Birthday Anju. Fantastic looking cake! 🎂🎉

@DrGiselaSole @physiOtago @Meredith_Otago @OtagoCHARR Well done Celia & team! 👏

[Angela Cadogan @ACadogan_NZ]

@marklaslett_NZ Hope your trip isn't disrupted Mark. 🤞

[Angela Cadogan @ACadogan_NZ]

@Physio1Sr 2/2: Practice should be 'informed' by evidence, not rely on it exclusively. I would suggest it's not a bias, but good clinical reasoning based on selective tissue tension principles. Especially impt since we know we cannot ID specific tissue pathology with clinical tests.

[Angela Cadogan @ACadogan_NZ]

🤜What he said👇😁. 100% Jeremy. When imaging/surgery used as ref. std it will inflate test sensitivity. Imaging/surgery findings not always symptomatic. I hardly use "special tests" now. Basic ROM & resisted tests better diagnostic value IMO.

[Professor Jeremy Lewis PhD FCSP @JeremyLewisPT]

@BillingMartin @AndrewVCuff @ShoulderGeek1 @AdamMeakins @theshoulderdoc Look at anything @ehegedus44 @chadcookpt @ASGPhysio @ACadogan_NZ has published or will publish. Big issue = ref tests (ie MRI, US arthroscope)They aren't gold standard & therefore challenge the usefulness of 'special' tests bc of structural pathology in people without symptoms.

[Angela Cadogan @ACadogan_NZ]

@Physio1Sr 1/2: Hardly any research on Dx Acc of ROM/res tests. Our research consistently identified full PROM ext. rot (& GHJ Abd) as being predictive of subacromial and AC jt pain. (Excludes 'stiff' sh conditions e.g FS making SA and AC pain more likely).
