ch 10- shoulder joint "glenohumeral joint" Flashcards
ball and socket joint with movement in all three planes and around all three axes; 3 degrees of freedom
shoulder joint “glenohumeral”
humeral head articulating with glenoid fossa of scapula
shoulder joint “glenohumeral”
most movable joint; least stable joint
shoulder joint “glenohumeral”
Joint motions: 1-flexion, extension, and hyperextension; 2-abdution and adduction; 3- medial and lateral rotation; 4- horizontal abduction and adduction; circumduction; scaption
shoulder joint “glenohumeral”
normal end feel for all shoulder joint motions because of tension due to ligaments and muscle in joint capsule
firm end feel
transverse plane/ vertical axis; 90 degrees of motion
medial and lateral rotation
arc of circle motion possible at shoulder; combination of all shoulder motions
circumduction
transverse plane/ vertical axis; 30 degrees of motion
horizontal abduction
transverse plane/ vertical axis; 120 degrees of motion
horizontal adduction
frontal plane/ sagittal plane; 180 degrees of motion
abduction and adduction
sagittal plane/ frontal axis; 180 degrees of motion
flexion and extension
sagittal plane/ frontal axis; 45 degrees from anatomical position
hyperextension
therapeutic shoulder exercises; 30 degrees forward from frontal plane (scapular plane); most functional movements
scaption
occurs in open packed position; 55 degrees of abduction and 30 degrees of horizontal adduction
greatest AK motion in shoulder joint
convex humeral head moves within the concave glenoid fossa of scapula
ak motion of shoulder joint
shoulder joint glides _____ of the roll/swing
opposite
humeral head glides posteriorly
medial rotation
humeral head glides anteriorly and superiorly
extension and adduction
humeral head glides posteriorly and inferiorly
flexion and abduction
humeral head glides anteriorly
lateral rotation
glide humeral head into direction of restriction between the joint surfaces and lengthen fibers of joint capsule
mobilizing force
shallow somewhat egg-shaped socket on superior end, lateral side; articulates with the humerus
glenoid fossa
fibrocartilaginous ring attached to the rim of the glenoid fossa, which deepens the articular surface
glenoid labrum
most area on the anterior (costal) surface, providing attachment for the subscapularis muscle
subscapular fossa
below the spine, provides attachment for the infraspinatus muscle
infraspinous fossa
above the spine, provides attachment for the supraspinatus muscle
supraspinous fossa
providing attachment for teres major and minor muscles
axillary border
broad, flat area on the superior lateral aspect, providing attachment for middle deltoid muscle
acromion process
longest and largest of upper extremity
humerus
semirounded proximal end; articulates with the scapula
head
slightly constricted area just below tubercles where the head meets the body
surgical neck
circumferential groove separating the head from the tubercle
anatomical neck
“body” the area between the surgical neck procimally and wider distal end
shaft
large projection lateral to head and lesser tubercle
greater tubercle
shoulder projection on anterior surface, medial to greater tubercle; provides attachment for the subscapularis muscle
lesser tubercle
on the lateral side near the midpoint of the shaft; not usually a well-defined muscle
deltoid tuberosity
“intertubercular groove”; the longitudinal groove between the tubercles; containing the tendon of the long head of biceps
bicipital groove
lateral and medial lips of bicipital groove, or crests of greater and lesser tubercles
bicipital ridges
lateral lip (crest of greater tubercle) provides attachment for
pectoralis major muscle
medial lip (crst for lesser tubercle) provides attachment for
latissimus dorsi and teres major
injury caused by a fall on outstretched hand; results in impacted fracture and common in elderly
humeral neck fracture
