Impingement Syndrome & Tendons - Exam 3 Flashcards
Subacromial Pain Syndrome aka (SAPS)
-a _______ of symptoms
-_____ % of all shoulder complaints
cluster
44-65%
Pathomechanics #1:
The sub and coracoacromial space gets compromised resulting in
impingement or compression of tendons
Pathomechanics #2:
Increases _______ on tendons when loaded and as they wrap the bone resulting in _______
tension; compression
What is the most common structure involved in Impingement Syndrome?
supraspinatus tendon
Impingement Syndrome:
Supraspinatus Tendon may ______ tear and limited vascularity in distal part affects _______
-tendinitis or tendinopathy?
gradually; healing
tendinopathy
What is another tendon that is likely involved in impingement syndrome?
-tendinitis or tendinopathy?
biceps tendon - long head
tendinopathy
Labrum may gradually tear in impingement syndrome and subacromial bursa will lead to bursitis? T or F
True
- With impingement syndrome, you are more likely to see what type of motion?
-Trauma with _________ changes
-_______________
–muscle/capusule shortening
–muscle inhibition
- limited motion - hypomobility
-fibrotic capsular
-disuse/immobilization
________ leads to shortened IRs/ant. capsule tightness and limits ER
persistent FHP
Insufficient motion by shoulder mm. due to cervical dysfunction is known as:
regional interdependence
With an impingement syndrome, you may get _____ or _____ of the acromion
spurring or hooking
- What are the SECONDARY etiologies/pathomechanics of impingement syndrome?
-trauma or ________ jt. hypomobility resulting in _____
-disuse/immobilization
–mm. _______
–limiting _______
- excessive motion - hypermobility
adjacent joint ; laxity
–muscle inhibition
–limiting stabilization
Regional Interdependence of SECONDARY etiologies/pathomechanics impingement syndrome?
-_______ shoulder stabilization
-________ impairment greatest at __________
-_________ > ___________ so emphasize _________
-insufficient
-proprioceptive ; higher elevation
-kinesthetic impairment > proprioceptive impairment; coordination
What is an example of primary and secondary impingement syndrome etiologies and pathomechanics?
Scapular hypomobility and GH hypermobility
______ impingement is MORE common in overhead athletes
-_____ ROM and _________ glide typically excessive
- location on labrum?
posterior superior glenoid impingement (PSGI)
-ER ROM; anterior GH glide
-superior glenoid on labrum
P! is typically _______ to ______ and referred into ______ and _______ with impingement syndrome
localized; tip of shoulder; lateral shoulder and arm
Pt. with impinging symptoms may include P! and/or limitation with:
elevation
lifting/pushing/pressing activities
reaching behind back
Nociplastic P! may develop with impingement syndrome. T or F?
True
Impingement Syndrome Signs Observation:
-possible ________ compensation for _________ restrictions
-_________ elevation
-inconsistent w/_________
Scapular compensation; GH
-increased
-upward rotation
Symptom alteration tests are unreliable with scapula? T or F
false; reliable
What are the 3 Scapular Alteration Test and others?
-details?
Scapular Assistance Test (SAT) - passive upward rot.
Scapular Repositioning Test- passive upward rot and pos. tilt
Scapular Retraction Test- voluntary retraction
Taping for LT assistance- reminder (short-term benefit)
Impingement syndrome: Function
-limited and P!ful when:
limited and P!ful reaching overhead and behind the back, and with lifting
