Standardizing the Shoulder Assessment Record
Strong shoulder assessment documentation must detail the specific planes of motion, including active and passive range of motion (ROM), and the results of provocative maneuvers such as Neer's, Hawkins-Kennedy, or Apprehension tests. It should clearly delineate between the patient's subjective report of pain and the clinician's objective findings regarding joint stability, crepitus, and muscle atrophy in the supraspinatus or infraspinatus regions.
Aduvera eliminates the need to recall these specific measurements from memory after the patient has left. By recording the encounter, the AI scribe captures the clinician's verbalizations during the exam, drafting a note that maintains the fidelity of the physical findings. This allows the clinician to focus on the patient's movement rather than pausing to jot down degrees of rotation or test results.
