| A pt has a flattened deltoid muscle. What does it indicate? | dislocation |
| A pt has a sulcus sign. What does it indicate? | instability |
| Your pt stands facing the wall and pushes against it. He has noticable and uneven "winging of his scapula" (meaning the inferior border is really pointing out at you). What does this indicate? | Serratus anterior weakness |
