The patient is asked to either sit on an examination table or stand while performing this<unk> . Examiner should be standing on the patient's lateral side or behind the<unk>  being evaluated. Examiner will passively abduct the patient's shoulder (humerus) to 90 degrees. The patient is then asked to slowly lower or adduct the shoulder to their side. If the patient is unable to perform this motion, the examiner can hold the humerus at 90 degrees of abduction and apply slight pressure to the distal forearm. If the patient's<unk>  falls to their side, this also indicates a rotator cuff dysfunction. Inability to controllably lower the<unk>  can indicate a rotator cuff dysfunction, most commonly the supraspinatus.
