Table 1.

Intraoperative stability assessment of Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty.

Test Abnormal finding Management options
External Rotation in neutral Hinged opening Check posterior bony impingement acting as a hinge
Larger glenosphere
Abduction/External Rotation Anterior dislocation Build humeral height
Check posterior bony impingement acting as a hinge
Larger glenosphere
Adduction/Internal Rotation Posterior dislocation Build humeral height
Check anterior bony impingement acting as a hinge
Larger glenosphere
Conjoint tendon tension Excessive tension Reduce humeral height
“Shuck test” Excessive pistoning Build humeral height
Eccentric glenosphere
“Bed shuffle Test” Anterosuperior translation Build glenoid offset
Larger glenosphere with or without lateralisation
Lateralised humeral liner
“Lateral Thrust Test” Lateral dislocation Build glenoid offset
Larger glenosphere with or without lateralisation
Lateralised humeral liner
