Execution Option:
- The patient is in sitting position with his shoulder fully flexed and in lateral rotation
- The examiner fixates the humerus
- The examiner passively moves the patient’s elbow into full flexion and assesses the end-feel
Positive Outcome: The patient’s elbow cannot fully flex and/or end-feel is muscle stretch instead of soft tissue approximation between the forearm and biceps
