Abstract

This short communication sought to establish the need for clinical prediction rules (CPR) and/or clinical decision rules (CDR) in evaluation and management of upper quadrant orthopaedic conditions such as fractures and soft tissue injuries. There was one study on cervical spine fractures, one on whiplash-associated disorders, one on thoracic injuries, one on lateral epicondylalgia and one on carpal tunnel syndrome. There were no studies on shoulder and on other common orthopaedic conditions of the upper quadrant which essentiates future research in this area. 

Keywords: Clinical Examination; Orthopaedic Examination; Clinical Orthopaedics; Traumatic Conditions.
