| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What are the 5 UL RTS Functional Tests | 1. Closed kinetic chain upper extremity stability tests 2. Seated shot put test 3. Athletic shoulder (ASH) test 4. Posterior shoulder endurance test 5. One arm hop test |
| What are the 5 LL RTS Fucntional Tests | 1. Timed 6m hop test 2. Triple hop for distance 3. Cross-over hop for distance 4. Side-hop test 5. 505 agility test |
| What do you use to measure the outcome of the test? | The limb symmetry index which is calculate by dividing the score of the affected limb by the average score of the unaffected limb, and then multiply by 100 to get a percentage |
| What do you want to achieve between limbs with the LSI scoring? | a difference of 10% e.g. 90% of the good limb |
| What are the instructions for the Closed kinetic upper extremity stability test? and what is it testing? | Measure of upper extremity stability & speed. Perform in push up position with hands 36inches apart. Athlete reaches across and taps other hand for as many reps in 15secs. 45sec rest with 3 sets get average score 21 reps to RTP, 25 for RTS |
| What are the instructions for the seated single arm shot put? and what is it testing? | Measure of upper quadrant strength and power. Sit athlete with back against wall, knees bent, feet flat, push 2kg med ball from shld level, max horizontal distance. 3 maximal efforts and average distance recorded. - arm length. 3-13% asymmetry expected |
| Athletic Shoulder (ASH) Test - what is it testing, what are instructions | Measure of strength in functional positions (I, Y and T) Athlete lies prone and performs 3secs iso hold at three angles (180, 135, 90). 3 reps at each 20 rest, LSI within 10% |
| Posterior Shoulder Endurance Test - what is it and instructions | Measure of endurance of post shld. Lies prone with arm off edge of table to 90deg holding DB 2% of BW, hold until failure, record time. LSI 10% |
| One-Arm Hop Test - what is it and instructions | High level, closed chain assx measuring stability, power, impact tolerance. Push up to 10.2cm step and then off 5 x as quickly as possible. expected asymmetry 4.4secs between sides |
| Timed 6m Hop Test - what is it measuring and instructions | Assesses power and speed. Athlete hops forward as fast as possible on SL over 6m. record time, LSI >90% |
| Triple Hop for distance - what is it measuring and instructions | Assesses strength/power, coordination, stability, ability to absorb force on landing, reactive strength. Athlete to stand on one leg and hop 3 successive hops as far as possible and must stick landing for 2secs. LSI >90% |
| Cross over hop for distance - what is it measuring and instructions | Assesses coordination and strength in multiple planes. Athlete performs three hops as far as possible with each hop crisscrossing in a medial to lateral direction over a 15cm line, stick landing.>90% LSI |
| Side hop test - what is it measuring and instructions | Measure of stability, balance, strength, balance, strength, agility. Athlete to hop 10 times in each direction over 30cm for 20hops. 2 trials 1min rest. Fastest time. Cut off score 10secs (healthy) |
| 505 agility test - what is it measuring and instructions | Assesses COD, accelerate/decelerate. Athlete sprints to 15m line, turns 180 and sprints back 5m. Start timing on 5m line. foot must touch line, 3 x with 2-3mins rest between trials. fastest time recorded. 1.5-3s. |
