Module #5: Shoulder Flashcards
What joint offers the greatest ROM?
Glenohumeral Joint
Which Joint is theoretical (not a real joint)?
Scapulathoracic Joint
What is the ratio for the Scapulohumeral rhythem? and how many phases?
2:1 Ratio. Humerus to Scapula
3 phases
Is the glenoid cavity shallow or deep?
Shallow
What is the purpose of the Glenohumeral ligaments?
connects humerus to glenoid, stabilizes shoulder to hold in place and keeps it from dislocating
Coracoclavicular Ligaments
Trapezoid, Conoid
Where is the subacromial bursa?
from the acromion, deltoid and rotator cuff tendons
Example of primary Shoulder impingement
Shape of Acromion Process
Example of secondary shoulder impingment
repetitive motions
Difference between shoulder dislocation and seperation
Dislocation, humeral head forced out of fossa and does not return on its own, separation it does return on its own.
What causes a labrum tear?
falling, dislocation, tensile forces. When humerus comes too inferior to glenoid.
Just like Menisci’s tear, what is a labrum tear like?
Cracking, Chipping, tear, Superior SLAP, Anterior/ Inferior Bankart Lesion
what is a main cause for frozen shoulder?
Idiopathic, perhaps autoimmune, Life altering.
Frozen Shoulder (FS) develops in three stages:
- Pain (Freezing)
- Stiffness (Frozen)
- Recovery (Thawing)
How long does frozen shoulder usually resolve?
1-3 years
What is the capsular pattern of the shoulder?
Abduction, Lateral and medial rotation
what arch helps to protect the rotator cuff tendons and subacromial bursa from direct trauma?
Coracoacromial Arch
For every inch of forward head posture, it increases the weight of the head by how many pounds?
10 pounds
What is Hyperhyphosis?
Excessive curvature of the thoracic spine
What are some different reasons seizures happen?
Brain trauma, drug/alcohol abuse, fever over 105 degrees, infections
Two types of hyperkyphosis
Functional and structural
What is hypolordosis?
loss or decrease in the lumbar spine “FLATBACK”
Where does shoulder separations happen?
Acromion
What muscles are involved in the Scapulohumeral Rhythem
Traps, Serratus Anterior, Rhomboids, Lev Scap.
What is Reverse Scapulohumeral Rhythm?
When the scapulamoves more during abduction of the shoulder than the humerus moves. Can be observed in frozen shoulder
What actions will brings the coracoclavicular ligaments to the surface more?
Seated of Supine, Abduct and medially rotate the shoulder. Ligaments will feel like taut bands
