 ;;    If yes, indicate side: ___ Right   ___ Left   ___ Both
 ;;
 ;; c. Cross-body adduction test (Passively adduct arm across the patient's body
 ;; toward the contralateral shoulder. Pain may indicate acromioclavicular joint
 ;; pathology.)
 ;;    ___ Positive   ___ Negative   ___ Unable to perform   ___ N/A
 ;;    If positive, side affected:   ___ Right    ___ Left   ___ Both
 ;;
 ;; 13.  Joint replacement and/or other surgical procedures

 ;; ___ Yes   ___ No
 ;; If yes, indicate side and severity of residuals.
 ;;   ___ Right shoulder
 ;;       Date of surgery: ___________________
 ;;       Residuals:
 ;;       ___ None
 ;;       ___ Intermediate degrees of residual weakness, pain and/or limitation
 ;;           of motion
 ;;       ___ Chronic residuals consisting of severe painful motion and/or
 ;;           weakness
 ;;       ___ Other, describe: _________________________________________________
 ;;^TOF^
 ;;   ___ Left shoulder
 ;;       Date of surgery: ___________________
 ;;       Residuals:
 ;;       ___ None
 ;;       ___ Intermediate degrees of residual weakness, pain and/or limitation
 ;;           of motion

 ;;
 ;; 14. Other pertinent physical findings, complications, conditions, signs

 ;; ___ Yes   ___ No
 ;; If yes, describe (brief summary): _________________________________________
 ;;
 ;; 15. Remaining effective function of the extremities
 ;;
 ;; Due to the Veteran shoulder and/or arm conditions, is there functional

 ;; the condition causing loss of function, and provide specific examples
 ;; (brief summary): ___________________________________________________________
 ;;
