MSK - Shoulder Flashcards
What are the active movements in the shoulder, normal ranges and end feels?
Abduction 170-180° - tissue stretch Flexion 160-180° - tissue stretch Scaption 170-180° - tissue stretch Extension 50-60° - tissue stretch Adduction 50-70° - STA IR 60-100° - tissue stretch ER 80-90° - tissue stretch Horizontal Adduction 30° - tissue stretch/STA Horizontal Abduction 90° - tissue stretch
LTT - Internal Rotators
Supine ER with shoulder at 90° abduction and elbow flexion
+ve = should go to 90°, if not then tight
LTT - External Rotators
Supine IR with shoulder at 90°
+ve = should go to 70°, if not then tight
LTT - Pec Major (clavicular head)
Supine, shoulder in full horizontal abd and ER
+ve = should be able to drop to table level
LTT - Pec Major (sternal head)
Supine, shoulder in 135° abd and full horizontal abd and ER
+ve = shoulder should drop to table level
LTT - Teres Major, Lats, Rhomboids
Raises arms in sagittal plane full shoulder flexion
+ve = shoulder should drop to table level
MMT - Scap elevators
Position - sitting; gravity eliminated prone
Resistance - into shoulder depression
MMT - Shoulder Flexors
Position - sitting; gravity eliminated side lying
Resistance - prox to elbow in extension direction
MMT - Shoulder Extensors
Position - prone; gravity eliminated side lying
Resistance - prox to elbow into flexion
MMT - Shoulder Abductors
Position - sitting; gravity eliminated supine
Resistance - prox elbow into adduction
MMT - External Rotators
Position - prone with arm off table supported in 90° abd and elbow flex; gravity eliminated sitting arm at side
Resistance - support humerus and resist into IR prox to wrist
MMT - Internal Rotators
Position - prone arm over edge of table; gravity eliminated sitting arm at side
Resistance - into ER at prox wrist
MMT - Anterior Deltoid
Axillary C5-C6
Position - supine in shoulder abduction, slight flexion, IR
Resistance - into extension and adduction on ant arm prox to elbow
MMT - Posterior Deltoid
Axillary C5-C6
Position - prone with shoulder in abd and slight ER; flex elbow to 90
Resistance - obliquely down into adduction/horizontal add
MMT - Pec Major Upper Clavicular
Lat Pectoral Nerve C5-C7
Position - supine with shoulder in 90° flex and slight med rotation
Resistance - stabilize opposite shoulder and into horizontal abd and slight ext against forearm distal to elbow
