Final - Shoulder Flashcards
3 bones of the shoulder
clavicle, scapula, humerus
4 joints of the shoulder
sternoclavicular
acromioclavicular
glenohumeral
scapulothoracic
clavicle - 3
slender s that limits shock to upper limb - distal part is the weakest (where it changes shape - #)
from sternum to acromion process
support ant aspect of shoulder
shoulder separation or SC SS - 3
MOI
ladder, cant abduct arm or move shoulder around
shoved into boards or fall
tests for shoulder seperation - 3
percussion, TOP, indirect pressure
scapula - 2
prominent projects - 3
fossas - 2
function
flat triangle - articular surface of humerus in glenoid fossa)
acromion, spine, coracoid process
infraspinatus and supraspinatus
site of attachment for muslces that move the shoulder - little midgits pulling on a floating iceberg
scapular resting position - 6
arms at side, overlies ribs 2-7, vertebral border 2" lat to thoracic spinous processes, sup angle approx even with T1-T2 spine - T3 inf angle - T7/8
humeral head
spherical in glenoid fossa
humeral tuberosities
greater - lateal
lesser - medial
form bicipital groove for biceps tendon
sternoclavicular joint
plane joint formed by the larger medial end of clavicle that articulates with the manubrium of the sternum - compressed in dogpiles and strength depends on the lig
articular disc - 3
improves contact area on bony ends, enhances joint stability, prevent dislocation of clavicle
sternoclavicular lig - 3
ant SC lig
pos SC lig - reinforce ant and pos aspect of capsule
costoclavicular ligs - 2
inf surface of clavicle to sup surface of first rib - limit for elevation of pectoral girdle
interclavicular lig
attaches both clavicles across manubrium - strengthen sup capsule
AC joint
plane/gliding jt
clavicle and acromion that is covered by fibrocarilage
ac lig - 3
ac lig - reinforce sup aspect
cc lig - trapezoid and conoid
scapulothoracic jt - 3
not a true jt - shoulder blade on your rib cage
enables shoulder to function correctly
scapula and thoracic wall
larger shoulder blade
more force
3 types of movement of scapulothoracic jt
elevation/depression
protraction/retraction
lat/med rotation
glenohumeral jt - 6
synovial - ball and socket - multi axial
most movable jt in the body
active restraints of rotator cuff and deltoid, passive restraint of ligs and labrum
humeral head and glenoid fossa of scapula full with hyaline cartilage
incongruent becuase the head is too large
glenoid labrum
continuous with jt capsule
fibrocartilage ring
deepens the fossa and increases contact surface area and stability by 50%
purpose of lats and pec
movers of your arm - not biomechanically made to stablize your shoulder
ligs strengthening the ant capsule - 3
sup, mid and inf glenohumeral lig
ligs strengthening the sup capsule
coracohumeral lig
coracoacromial arch
prominent diseases - 5
coracoid process, acromion and coracoacromial lig
- impingement and tendinitis - cant lift it above your head
overlies the humeral head and limit the sup displacement of humerus, supraspinatus tendon passes through arch
External rotator cuff muscles
supraspinatus - from supraspinous fossa to greater tuberosity of humerus - abduction
infraspinatus - infraspinous process to greater tuberosity
teres minor - lateral border of scap to greater tuberosity
to avoid shoulder problems if you work out
stabilize your scapula before you start
subscapularis
subscapular fossa to lesser tuberosity - internal rotation
serratus ant
inside of ribcase ribs 2-9 and goes to medial border of scap - push up with a plus , scapula protraction, rotation and stabilize scap against thorax when pushing
weakness - scapular winging
rhomboids (maj and min)
spinous process of c7-t5 to medial border of scap from inf angle - scapular retraction and stabilize scap on thoracic wall, downward rotation
weakness - scap winging
