Which clavicular dislocation is LIFE THREATENING?
POSTERIOR Dislocation
ABDuction is coupled with what rotation?
Posterior Roation

When your patient shrugs their shoulders, the medial clavicles move …
INFERIOR
Abduction
dysfunctional clavicle stays SUPERIOR = Adduction dysfuntion
In a clavicle adduction dysfuntion, the medial portion of the clavicle will not move as what coompared to the normal?
