Talk:Jobe's Test

Untitled
This is incorrect. The test being described is called the Apprehension test. Jobe's test is also called the 'Empty Can Test'.

Mess
As a previous user suggested in 2009, "Jobe's test" is not described in the article. There are three names being used here to describe a physical test, namely, "Jobe's test" (the title of the article), "Jobe's relocation test" and the "Apprehension test". While the "Apprehension test" is occasionally referred to as "Jobe's relocation test" (possibly conflated with? see first source), "Jobe's test" is another test entirely (often known as the "Empty Can Test", which does not have a wikipedia page). The literature and various shoulder guides on the internet do not often use the "Jobe's test" name, instead opting for "Empty Can Test". For my school project, I will be sorting out these pages.

These two sources show the discrepancies:

1) Jobe Relocation Test, article by Jo Gibson, https://www.shoulderdoc.co.uk/article/753

2) The Painful Shoulder: Part 1. Clinical Evaluation, article by Thomas Woodward and Thomas Best of the American Academy of Family Physicians, http://www.aafp.org/afp/2000/0515/p3079.html Sdb27 (talk) 20:56, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

Plan for clean-up
I will be making the "Jobe's test" page into a disambiguation page, that then refers (links) to "Jobe's relocation test" and the "Empty can test" pages (that I will also create). I will also create an "Apprehension test" page.Sdb27 (talk) 16:50, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
