    Where is ULTT 2b (radial nerve)?

    ULTT 1 (median nerve/brachial plexus)
    ULTT 2a (median nerve)
    ULTT 2b (radial nerve)
    ULTT 3 (ulnar nerve)

    I like how you indicate what structures are being stressed, and how easy it is to view and follow the steps. I also appreciate that you have reviewed the tests in the literature. Well done. Can you use these tests as "stretches" if you did not feel there were red flags, but simply some tension in the neural tissues?

    For ULTT1 , UTT2 , UTT3 .. The elbow should be flexed or extended???
    According to NPTE it is extended??
    In general words how the neurological structure put in tensions ?? I mean in anatomical point of view??
    Many thanks for your help

    • @Physiotutors
      @Physiotutors  Pƙed 6 lety

      To create maximal tension in the median and radial nerve the elbow should be (fully) extended.
      This can be seen anatomically when you have a look at the course of the nerves.
      For the ulnar nerve, you can create maximal tension with elbow flexion.
      In our case, Andreas already felt tension before complete extension.

      i had gotten abit used to searching by having to spell out the tests, or using umbrella terms like neuro when searching for neurological tests. not all channels are as good as you are at using shortenings. as said, it was harder, not impossible. i would have liked a neuro tag, but it simply took me a bit of extra time to find it this way. still, great video, and thanks for uploading.

    Is it not supposed to be supination of forearm in ULTT 4? I think you did it in pronation

    • @debbiemeko472
      @debbiemeko472 Pƙed 5 lety +1

      Pronation is correct, before bringing the fingers towards the ear. It won't be possible to reproduce symptoms when supinating forearm. I think you're confusing the tested limb position of ULLT 1 for ULTT 4.

    • @Physiotutors
      @Physiotutors  Pƙed 5 lety

      Pronation, had other people commenting that their textbooks show supination, but that doesn't add maximal stress on the ulnar nerve.

      Maybe they took a different order, but officially ULTT3 is designed to stress the radial nerve which does not come under maximal tension in 10° of abduction. Have a look at this paper: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22402638

    Hi guys,
    Is the ULTT A test with breathe in/out, also useful for including or excluding pancoasttumor?

    • @Physiotutors
      @Physiotutors  Pƙed 5 lety +1

      No evidence on that. Next to general red flag screening for cancer, we would rather screen for changes in the pulmonary tract (e.g. dizziness, heavy feeling on chest, out of breath, difficulties breathing, risk factors from history like smoking etc.)
      Signs & symptoms are different from ulnar nerve compression or T8 radiculopathy as T8-T2 nerves are affected and patients may also present with Horner's syndrome as the superior cervical ganglion can be compressed by the tumor.

    • @Physiotutors
      @Physiotutors  Pƙed 5 lety +1

      Be aware of symptoms that resemble TOS.
      Would rather expect the ULTTD to be positive as T8-T1 are stressed the most.

      As a diagnostic test it's used as a provocation test so maximal stretch. As treatment you'll have to adapt it in form of sliders and tensioners so your patient is able to tolerate it. Have a look at out video where we explain the sliders and tensions for the upper limb.

      They can be used as both actually. We have made a video on nerve glides and tensioners which you can watch here: czcams.com/video/Fv_EJV8q2E0/video.html

      Have a look at the Straight Leg Raise test and the Slump Test. They are basically the tension tests for the LL.
