lecture 9: shoulder Flashcards
what is shoulder fucntion
key factor that will orient the upper extremity to the ttrunk
what are the movements possible at the shoulder movement
extension/flexion
adduction/abduction
medial/lateral rotation
circumduction
what is harder to do lateral or medial extension
lateral
what are the bones of the shoulder complex
humerus
scapula
clavicle
(acromion and coracoid process)
what is the shape of the clavicle
crank shaped strut
expain the shape of the clavicle
convex towards sternum (neurovascular structures) / concave towards humerus
what are the function of the clavicle
attaches shoulder to axial skeleton
force transmission to scapula
contributes to ROM
where is the scapula located
between T2-T7
what is the primary fucntion of the scapula
muscle attachment
how do they evaluate internal rotation of the scapula
via distance from T7
the coracoid process is located anterior or lateral
anterior
the acromion process is located anterior or lateral
lateral
what forms the roof over the humerus
acromion
what are the 3 types of the acromion variations (bigliani)
type 1: flat
type 2: slightly curved
type 3: hook shaped
what acromion variation contributes to compression structures
type 3 (hook shaped)
only 25-30% of humeral head is in contact with the fossa, so what is added to increase contact area
labrum
what part of labrun is most vulnerable
superior aspect is vulnerable to tears = slap lesions
(because of bicep insertion)
stability in the shoulder is increased by what in the glenoid fossa
labrun
the superior aspect of the scapula is located to what degrees in the plane
superior aspect is 30-45 anterior to frontal plane
true or false: scapula also has slight anterior inclination and upward rotation
true
true or false: scapula also has slight BLANK inclination and BLANK rotation
slight anterior and upward rotation
where is the radial n located in the humerus
in the spiral/radial groove
what is the inclination of the humeral head
135
what is the angle of torsion of the humerus
30
