40
Q

what are the two types of multidirectional instabilities

congenital: generalized hyper laxity of the sh and other joints (hyperlax joints all over the body)
acquired: participation in overhead activities that impose repetitive microtrauma (inj will happen at end rom so need to strengthen the m. to stabilize that end rom)

41

subacromial bursa
rotator cuff (supraspinatus)
long head of bicep
57
Q

causes of impingement (4)

A
  • irreg shaped acromion (some people have more hooked acromions that will decrease space)
  • enlarged bursa (if more friction=swelling and less space)
  • enlarged tendons (hypertrophy will decrease that space)
  • loss of humeral head depression/stabilization (if no inf glide=less space)
  • poor posture
  • repetitive overhead mvt (if too much training too fast= m. could shut down)
  • scapular dyskinesis (if scap doesnt move well when raise arms up= will hit top of glenoid fossa and reduce space)
  • rc weakness
  • gh instability (rotator cuff m. will fatigue)
58
Q

common s/s of impingements

A
  • pinching sensation w rom, especially overhead
  • weakness in rc m. and/or biceps brachii (main cause for impingement)
  • pain at common origin of rc or below ac joint

  • m. weakness
  • poor posture
  • capsular laxity
  • poor scap control (like impingement)
  • impingement syndromes
63
Q

what are the extrinsic factors that can contribute to RCT

A
  • training errors (need proper strength to prevent inj)
  • faulty technique (after time, can make other areas have to take in more load)
  • incorrect surfaces and equipment (surface = lower body more and equipment = more upper body)
  • poor environmental conditions (if ball slips, changing throwing pattern and throwing the m. off)
64
Q

partial and complete tears of the RC can be what kind of thickness and are they more commonly associated w overuse or single episode traumas
