Serratus Anterior

Movie for broad-band (300kbps)

Patient position: supine, with the elbow

extended with the shoulder flexed to 90

degrees and internally rotated. Protract the

shoulder upward, toward the ceiling to project

the upper extremity anteriorly. Scapular

movement must be observed and the inferior

angle palpated to be sure the scapula is

abducting. The table’s firm surface supports

the scapula so there will be no winging and

the pressure of the hand may give the false

impression of strength. Because substitution

for a weak serratus anterior occurs easily in

this position, the preferred test position is

seated.

Examiner pressure:

Against the patient’s fist, transmitting the

pressure downward through the upper

extremity to the scapula to adduct the

scapula. Slight pressure may be applied to

the lateral border of the scapula as well.

Check on the radio button that best describes your test results. If the numeric grade is lower

than 5, click on the NEXT button located on the bottom right hand corner of this page, and

proceed to the Tape Specification Section.
