surgery for AC separation

A

usually type 4-6

conservative therapy - PT

33
Q

arthritis

A

loss of joint space**

34
Q

loss of passive and active ROM of shoulder

A

arthritis**

35
Q

adhesive capsulitis

A

inflammation in capsule - frozen shoulder

hard to tell from arthritis

MRI useful**

36
Q

bursitis

A

repetitive motion

option to inject - steroid

37
Q

when to avoid epinephrine/lidocaine

A

small capillaries

38
Q

lidocaine vs. marcaine

A

lido - short term

marc - long term

39
Q

strength and pain recover after numbing meds

A

bursitis

40
Q

therapeutic challenge

A

lidocaine to bursa to diagnose it

ROM and strength recover with bursitis after injection

41
Q

rotator cuff tear

A

persistant weakness despite injection

42
Q

rotator cuff tendinopathy

A

normal strength in association with pain relief

43
Q

frozen shoulder

A

persistent loss of ROM

44
Q

lidocaine injection test

A

subacromial bursa

when physical exam cannot exclude cuff tear, frozen shoulder, or AC joint involvement

45
Q

SLAP lesion

A

superior labrum tear anterior to posterior

biceps tendon anchors to labrum

46
Q

fall and grab something and flex bicep against lots of resistance

A

SLAP lesion

47
Q

O’briens test

A

test for slap lesion labrum tear

48
Q

work up for trauma to shoulder

A

Xray

US helpful for experienced hands

MRI

arthrography - contrast injection into joint with serial x-rays of fluoroscopy largely replaced by MRI

49
Q

shoulder pain algorithm

A

traumatic vs. non-traumatic

intrinsic vs. extrinsic

50
Q

no difference active vs. passive

A

bursitis

51
Q

lateral pain

A

rarely hip

more bursa issues

with paresthesia - meralgia paresthetica**

52
Q

true hip pain

A

groin - anterior

osteonecrosis, sepsis, fx, synovitis of hip joint

53
Q

neither direct pressure or ROM reproduces hip pain

A

think hernia, lower abdominal pathology, referred pain from lumbar area

54
Q

lower anterior thigh pain

A

referred true hip issue
upper femur
femoral neck
lumbar radiculopathy

55
Q

true hip joint pain

A

often arthritis

56
Q

trochanteric bursitis

A

lateral bursa

abnormal movement of glut medius and tensor fascia lata over greater trochanter

investigate - posteior superior to point of trochanter

chronic - fibrosis

57
Q

leg length discrepancy

A

trochanteric bursitis

58
Q

activity pain at night

A

osteoarthritis

located in groin**

59
Q

restricted abduction, morning stiffness, internal rotation limitation and pain, limited flexion

A

osteoarthritis of hip

60
Q

key feature for osteoarthritis

A

restricted abduction

61
Q

key physical exam for hip

A

internal/external rotation movements

62
Q

lateral femoral cutaneous nerve impingement

A

meralgia paresthetica

as couses under inguinal ligament

63
Q

burning/paresthsia upper lateral thigh, weakness or DTR changes

A

meralgia paresthetica

aka beer gut nerve or truckers nerve pinch

anterior and lateral thigh to the knee

A

meralgia paresthetica

not below knee

65
Q

osteonecrosis

A

aka aspectic necrosis, avascular necrosis, osteochondritis dissecans

decreased vascular supply to femoral head

joint destroyed within 3-5 years

66
Q

dislocated hip

A

look for osteonecrosis

67
Q

steroids and excessive alcohol

A

osteonecrosis
