Q

List seven exercises that are beneficial for throwers warm up, and why

A
  1. External rotation at 90 degrees of abduction
  2. Throwing deceleration
  3. Humeral flexion
  4. Humeral extension
  5. Low scapular rows
  6. Throwing acceleration
  7. Scapular punch
    -These muscles activate all muscles of the rotator cuff, primary humeral movers, and scapular stabilizer muscles which are all important to throwing motion

A

-Grade 1: little pain/discomfort, some point tenderness, no deformity
-Grade 2: subluxation of joint w/visible deformity, pain, swelling, point tenderness, inability to abduct/horizontally abduct shoulder in full range
-Grade 3: Complete dislocation and gross displacement of clavicle at the sternal junction, swelling, disability indicative of complete rupture of sternoclavicular and costoclavicular ligaments

21
Q

What complications are associated with a posteriorly dislocated clavicle?

A

-pressure placed on blood vessels, esophagus, or trachea can lead to life/death situation

22
Q

Sternoclavicular sprain management

A

-POLICE: protection, optimal loading, ice, compression, elevation
-reduction of clavicle by physician and immobilization for 3-5 weeks
-high incidence of recurrence w/sc sprains

23
Q

Acromioclavicular sprain etiology

A

-Direct impact to the tip of the shoulder: forcing the acromion process downward, backward, and inward, while clavicles pushed down against the rib cage
-upward force exerted along long axis of humerus by fall on outstretched arm
-may sustain contusion to distal end of clavicle

24
Q

Grade 1 ac sprain S&S

A

-point tenderness at acromion process and outer end of clavicle
-no disruption of ac joint, mild stretching of acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments

25
Q

Grade 1 ac sprain S&S

A

-point tenderness at acromion process and outer end of clavicle
-no disruption of ac joint, mild stretching of acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments

26
Q

Grade 2 ac sprain S&S

A

-Tearing/rupture of acromioclavicular ligaments, stretching of coracoclavicular ligaments
-displacement and prominence of lateral end of clavicle
-point tenderness at injury site
-unable to fully abduct/horizontally abduct

27
Q

Grade 3 ac sprain S&S

A

-complete rupture of acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments

28
Q

Grade 4 ac sprain S&S

A

-posterior separation of the clavicle
-complete disruption of the acromioclavicular ligament, coracoclavicular ligaments may sometimes remain intact

29
Q

Grade 5 ac sprain S&S

A

-complete rupture of acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments along w/tearing of trapezius and deltoid attachment to the acromion
-gross deformity and prominence of distal clavicle
-sever pain, loss of movement, instability of shoulder complex

30
Q

Grade 6 ac sprain S&S

A

-clavicle displaced inferior to the coracoid behind the coracobrachialis tendon

31
Q

Ac sprain managment, list management for grades 1-6

A
  1. Application of cold and pressure to control local hemorrhage
  2. Stabilization of the joint by a sling and swathe bandage

    Grades 4-6: surgical intervention using open reduction and internal fixation
32
Q

Glenohumeral joint sprain etiology

A

-Anterior capsule sprain: arm forced in abduction
-External rotation, direct blow
-Posterior capsule sprain: humerus forced posteriorly when arm is flexed

33
Q

What muscle group is most effective in controlling external rotation of the humerus and reducing ligamentous injury?

A

Infraspinatus-teres minor group

34
Q

Glenohumeral joint sprain S&S

A

-pain during movement especially when moi is reproduced
-decreased rom and pain w/palpation

35
Q

Glenohumeral joint sprain managment

A

-use of cold pack for 24-48 hours, compression, rest and immobilization in a sling
-after hemorrhage subsides, cryotherapy/massage/ultrasound added and mild passive and active rom to regain full ROM
-After full rom, resistance exercises added

36
Q

What is the most common shoulder dislocation?

A

Anterior/inferior dislocations (account for 95% of all dislocations)

37
Q

Anterior/inferior glenohumeral dislocation MOI

A

-direct impact to the posterior/lateral aspect of the shoulder
-most common moi: forced abduction, external rotation, and extension forcing humeral head out of glenoid cavity
-can result in a detached labrum and bankart lesion, and hill-sachs lesion

38
Q

Soft bankart lesion

A

Anteriorinferior labrum tears from the glenoid and injury only involves soft tissue (most common)

39
Q

Bony bankart lesion

A

Anteriorinferior labrum tears and a part of the bony glenoid fractures of breaks off

40
Q

Superior labrum anterior/posterior (SLAP) lesion

A

Caused by an injury to to the superior part of the labrum that begins posteriorly and extends anteriorly, affects the attachment of the long head of the biceps into the superior labrum

41
Q

Posterior glenohumeral dislocation MOI

A

Forced adduction, internal rotation, or fall on extended and internally rotated arm
-result in reverse hill-sachs lesion

42
Q

Reverse hill-sachs lesion

A

Occurs on anteromedial portion of humeral head following a posterior shoulder dislocation

43
Q

Anterior glenohumeral dislocation S&S

A

-flattened deltoid contour, prominence of humeral head when palpating axilla
-patient carries arm in slight abduction and external rotation and is unable to touch opposite shoulder

44
Q

Posterior glenohumeral dislocation S&S

A

-arm often held in adduction and internal rotation
-anterior deltoid muscle is flattened
-acromion and coracoid processes prominent
-head of humerus may be seen posteriorly

45
Q

Glenohumeral dislocation management

A

-immediate immobilization in a position of comfort using sling and pillow/folded towel
-reduction by physician, (1st time dislocations often associated with/fx shouldnt be reduced by ats)

46
Q

Reducing anterior vs posterior glenohumeral dislocations

A

-anterior-can be done on the sideline by applying sustained traction while patient relaxes
-posterior-may have to be performed while patient is under anesthesia
