36
Prevention of shoulder injuries
``` Proper physical conditioning is key Develops body specific regions relative to sport Warm up Proper falling tactic for some sports Correct equipment Mechanics vs overuse injuries ```
37
Preventing shoulder problems
General muscle strengthening Stretch for shoulder capsule Strengthen rotator cuff muscles Strengthen scapular stabilizers (push/press ups)
38
Throwing mechanics: windup phase
First movement until ball leaves glove hand Lead leg strides forward while both shoulders abduct, externally rotate and horizontally abduct
39
Throwing mechanics: cocking phase
Hands separate (achieve max. External rotation) while lead foot comes in contact with ground
40
Throwing mechanics: acceleration
Max external rotation until ball release (humerus adducts, horizontally adducts and internally rotates) Scapula elevates and abducts and rotates upward
41
Throwing mechanics: deceleration phase
Ball release until max shoulder internal rotation Eccentric contraction of ext. rotators to decelerate humerus while rhomboids decelerate scapula
42
Throwing mechanics: follow-through phase
End of motion when athlete is in a balanced position
43
Clavicle fractures: cause of injury
Fallen on outstretched hand (FOOSH), fall on tip of shoulder or direct impact Occur primarily in middle third (greenstick fracture often occurs in young athletes)
44
Clavicle fractures: signs of injury
Generally presents with supporting of arm, head tilted towards injured side with chin turned away Clavicle may appear lower Palpation reveals pain, swelling, deformity and point tenderness
45
Clavicle fractures: care
Closed reduction: sling and swathe, immobilize w/ figure 8 brace for 6-8 weeks Removal of brace should be followed with joint ,mobes, isometrics and use of a sling for 3-4 weeks Occasionally requires operative management
46
Sternoclvicular sprain: cause of injury
Indirect force, blunt trauma (may cause displacement)
47
Sternoclvicular sprain: signs of injury
Grade 1: pain and slight disability Grade 2: pain, subluxation w/ deformity, swelling and point tenderness and decreased ROM Grade 3: gross deformity (dislocation), pain, swelling , decreased ROM -possibly life threatening if dislocates posteriorly
48
Sternoclvicular sprain: care
PRICE, immobilization | Immobilize for 3-5 weeks followed by graded reconditioning
49
Apprehension of shoulder- structure/condition
Possible shoulder subluxations
50
Acromioclavicular sprain: cause of injury
Result of direct blow (from any direction), upward force from humerus, FOOSH
51
Acromioclavicular sprain: signs of injury
Grade 1: point tenderness and pain w/movement; no disruption of AC joint Grade 2: tear or rupture of AC ligament, partial displacement of lateral end of clavicle; pain, point tenderness and decreased ROM Grade 3: rupture of AC and CC ligaments with dislocation of clavicle; gross deformity (step deformity) pain loss of function and instability
52
Acromioclavicular sprain: care
Ice, stabilization, referral to physician Grades 1-3 (non-operative) will require 3-4 days (grade 1) and two weeks of immobilization (grade 3) Aggressive rehab is required with all grades
53
Glenohumeral dislocations: cause of injury
Head of humerus is forced out of the joint | Anterior dislocation is the result
54
Glenohumeral dislocations: sighs of injury
Flattened deltoid, prominent numeral head in axilla, arm carried in slight abduction and external rotation, moderate/severe pain and disability
55
Glenohumeral dislocations: care
RICE, immobilization and reduction by a physician Begin muscle re-conditioning ASAP Use of sling should continue for 1 week Progress to resistance exercises as pain allows
56
Shoulder impingement syndrome: cause of injury
Mechanical compression of supraspinatus tendon, glenoid labrum, subacromial bursa and long head of biceps tendon due to decreased space under coroacromial ligament Seen in over head repetitive activities; painful arc 70-120 degrees of AB
57
Shoulder impingement syndrome: Signs of injury
Diffuse pain, pain on palpation of subacromial space Decreased strength of external rotators compared to internal rotators; tightness in posterior and inferior capsule Positive impingement
58
Shoulder impingement syndrome: Care
Restore normal biomechanics in order to maintain space Strengthening of rotator cuff and scapula stabilizing muscles Stretching of posterior and inferior joint capsule Modify activity
59
Rotator cuff tear: cause of injury
Involves supraspinatus or rupture if other rotator cuff tendons Primary mechanism- acute trauma (high velocity rotation) Occurs near insertion on greater tuberosity Full thickness tears usually occur in those athletes w/ a long history of impingement or instability
60
Rotator cuff tear: signs of injury
Present with pain with muscle contraction Tenderness on palpation and loss of strength due to pain Loss of function, swelling With complete tear impingement and empty can test are positive
61
Rotator cuff tear: care
RICE for modulation of pain Progressive strengthening of rotator cuff Reduce frequency and level of activity initially with a gradual and progressive increase of intensity
62
Shoulder bursitis: etiology
Chronic inflammatory condition due to trauma of overuse | May develope from direct impact or fall on tip of shoulder
63
Shoulder bursitis: signs of injury
Pain with motion and tenderness during palpation in subacromial space; positive impingement tests
64
Shoulder bursitis: management
Cold packs and NSAIDs to reduce inflammation Remove mechanisms precipitating condition Maintain full ROM to reduce chances of contracture and adhesions from forming
65
Bicepital tendinitis: cause of injury
Repetitive overhead athlete- ballisitic activity that involves repeated stretching of bicep tendon and sheath
66
Bicepital tendinitis: signs of injury
Tenderness over bicipital groove, swelling, crepitus due to inflammation Pain with performing overhead activities Pain with yergusons test
67
Bicepital tendinitis: care
Rest and ice NSAIDs Gradual program of strengthening and stretching
