By longitudinal traction directly above the elbow, you will be able to (sub)luxate the patient's unstable shoulder and see a "sulcus" under the roof of the acromion, where the humeral head shoulder normally sits. P.S. There are no studies that have evaluated the tests' diagnostic accuracy to our knowledge | Physiotutors | Facebook
