The shoulder is one of the most complex and injury-prone joints in the human body. Whether due to incorrect posture, overloading or post-traumatic consequences - complaints in this area are widespread and often take a long time to treat. Early and precise diagnosis is therefore crucial in order to develop customized treatment plans and avoid long-term restrictions.
SKILLCOURT® Shoulder Screening is the first standardized, scientifically based method to objectively analyse the mobility and stability of the shoulder. In combination with the blank prescription, the screening opens up completely new possibilities for more efficient therapy design, greater patient satisfaction and economic success.
Targeted shoulder analysis for evidence-based therapy
The SKILLCOURT® Shoulder Screening consists of four standardized tests that record specific potentials of shoulder function:
1. mobility of the shoulder joint
Identification of restrictions in abduction, anteversion and rotation
Early detection of diseases such as osteoarthritis, impingement syndrome or frozen shoulder
Analysis of biomechanical imbalances such as incorrect shoulder blade movements
2. stability of the shoulder joint
Assessment of muscular imbalances and injury risks
Use of scientifically validated tests such as CKCUEST and Y-balance test
Basis for targeted training and therapy planning
The combination of technology-supported analysis and scientifically sound methodology makes SKILLCOURT® Shoulder Screening a particularly valuable tool for evidence-based therapy.
The role of the blank prescription: more efficiency, better therapy quality and economic success
The blank prescription enables physiotherapy facilities to manage therapy more flexibly, as they are no longer tied to medically prescribed frequencies or forms of treatment. Therapists decide for themselves on the number, duration and type of therapy units - and can use objective test procedures such as the SKILLCOURT® shoulder screening.
Example from practice
A patient with non-specific shoulder pain receives a blank prescription. Instead of relying on standardized therapy with fixed treatment units, the practice uses SKILLCOURT® Shoulder Screening for precise diagnostics and individual therapy planning. Regular re-tests allow therapy to be managed efficiently and the prescription to be used optimally - with measurable progress for the patient and economic benefits for the practice.
Conclusion: More precise diagnostics for better treatment decisions
SKILLCOURT® Shoulder Screening offers decisive added value for physiotherapy and sports facilities: It enables scientifically sound diagnostics, increases efficiency in therapy planning and ensures objective monitoring of success.
In combination with the blank prescription, practices benefit twice over:
They gain more control over therapy design.
They increase the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of their facility.
Patients benefit from individually optimized treatment with measurable progress.
Use the advantages of SKILLCOURT® Shoulder Screening for your facility for future-oriented and economically sustainable physiotherapy.
