The drop arm test is a clinical assessment used to evaluate the integrity of the rotator cuff muscles in the shoulder. During the test, the examiner raises the patient's arm to 90 degrees and asks them to slowly lower it to their side. If the patient is unable to control the movement and the arm drops suddenly, it may indicate a rotator cuff tear.
