IMPLICATIONS OF THE ROTARY STABILITY PATTERN
▪ Limited performance during this test can be attributed to poor reflex stabilization of the trunk and core.
▪ Compromised scapular and hip stability can also cause poor performance.
▪ Limited knee, hip, spine and shoulder mobility can reduce the ability to perform the complete pattern, leading to a poor test score.
CLEARING EXAM
A clearing exam is performed at the end of the rotary stability test. This movement is not scored it is performed to observe a pain response. If pain is produced, a positive (+) is recorded on the sheet and a score of zero is given to the entire rotary stability test. We clear flexion from the quadruped position, then rocking back and touching the buttocks to the heels and the chest to the thighs. The hands remain in front of the body, reaching out as far as possible. If there is pain associated with this motion, give a zero score. If the client receives a positive score, document both scores for future reference.
