Neer test for subacromial impingement

The Neer Impingement Test is a test designed to reproduce symptoms of rotator cuff impingement through flexing the shoulder and pressure application. Symptoms should be reproduced if there is a problem with the supraspinatus or biceps brachii.[1] This test is also associated with the Hawkins-Kennedy Test and Jobe's Test.[2]
