Ortho NEED TO KNOW Flashcards
What is part vs. whole practice?
Practice of an individual component versus practice of an entire task
Intrinsic (Inherent) Feedback
all feedback that comes through the sensory systems including visual, vestibular, proprioceptive, and somatosensory input
Extrinsic (augmented) feedback
information provided while a task or movement in in progress or subsequent to the movement
Usually verbal feedback or manual contacts
Sternoclavicular Joint
3 degrees of freedom
Elevation Depression
Protraction Retraction
Rotation
What does the subclavius muscle do?
depresses clavicle and stabilizes it
Which ligament does the clavicle use as a pivot point in elevation of the distal clavicle?
Costoclavicular Ligament
Acromioclavicular Joint consists of…
distal clavicle and acromion process of the scapula
What are the motions of the AC joint?
Elevation Depression
Retraction Protraction
Rotation
What is the Scapulothoracic Joint
Not a true joint
but is a functional joint
DIRECT RESULT OF MOTION WITHIN THE AC AND SC JOINTS
Contributes 1/3 of elevation in scapulohumeral rhythm
Elevation Depression
Protraction Retraction
Scap Upward Downward Rotation
What is winging?
Internal rotation of the shoulder
What is tilting
Anterior or Posterior
Most common impairment is anterior tilting
What 3 ligaments support the GH joint?
(Anteriorly, Intrascapular)
Superior
Middle
Inferior GH ligaments
Which ligament combats the pull of gravity in the GH joint?
Coracohumeral Ligament
Which ligament holds the long head of the bicep tendon on to the bicipital grove?
Transverse Humeral Ligament
What does the clavicle do when the scapula elevates (shrugging, flexion, or abducting)
the distal clavicle elevates
proximal clavicle rolls superiorly and glides inferiorly on the sternum
pivoting the costoclavicular ligament
When UE goes into flexion what does the clavicle do?
must rotate posteriorly to achieve full elevation
What muscles work as a team to rotate, elevate depress, and protract retract the scapula?
Traps, Levator Scap, Rhomboids, Serratus Anterior, Pec Minor
What nerve innervates Serratus Anterior
Long Thoracic Nerve
What happens if Serratus Anterior is weak
Can cause winging of the scapula
Excessive Anterior tipping is cause by what?
tightness of pec MINOR
(sometimes short head of biceps and coracobrachialis)
or
Weakness of SA and/or lower trap
What are the extensors of the GH joint?
Posterior Delt (axillary n)
Lats (thoracodorsal n)
teres major (subscap n)
What are the flexors of the GH joint
Anterior Delt (Axillary n)
Coracobrachialis ( Musculotaneous n)
What are the Abductors of the GH joint?
Middle Delt (axillary)
Supraspinatus (suprascapular n)
What is the function of the Rotator Cuff?
- Create rotation at the joint
- increase compressive forces between humeral head and socket
- Fascilitate gliding while humeral head rolls in the opposite direction
What is Shoulder impingement?
Compression of structures in sub acromial space between humeral head and acromion process and coracoacromial ligament.
Can be primary (structural) and secondary (functional)
What is primary impingement?
impingement due to decreased sub acromial space
Due to shape of the acromion, osseous changes, changes to acromioclavicular ligament.
What is secondary impingement?
results from GH joint instability, and/or muscle imbalance
Deltoid working alone, it will pull humeral head superiorly
Rotator cuff and humeral depressors must co-contract to glide humeral head inferiorly to avoid impingement
Patients with secondary impingement tend to demonstrate what?
Anterior tilting
Excessive internal rotation
Decreased upward rotation of the scapula
*increased kyphosis
What position narrows subacromial space
Protracted scapula
Someone with impingement may have contributing factors like….
- Decreased inferior gliding of the humerus
- Weakness/Inhibition of RC
- Poor GH Joint Stability
- General Scapular dyskinesia /weakness
What is a hypovascular zone and where is it located in the shoulder
Area of poor blood supply and is located in the supraspinatus tendon. This also grows larger as we get older.
Contributes to poor healing and tears
3 Types of partial thickness tears
Articular Surface
Infrasubstance
Bursal Surface
3 Types of GH Instability
- Anterior dislocation
- Labral Tear
- Posterior Dislocation
Common symptoms of GH instability
Frequent Sub Luxation
Slipping
Shifting
Pinching
Ache at Rest
difficulty lying on shoulder
occasional numbness in UE
What are bankart tears?
happen with anterior dislocation and occur anterior inferior portion of the labrum
What is a SLAP tear?
Superior Labral Anterior-Posterior
involves superior labrum and biceps tendon and broken down into 4 groups
How are tendons organized?
Organized
Long-Axis
Scarce Elastin
How are ligaments organized?
Randomly organized
Weaving pattern
2x Collagen Elastin
What are severe contusions at a risk for?
10% risk of Myositis Ossificans
What are the 3 types of muscle injuries?
Contact - Contusion
Muscle Tendon - Traumatic
Overuse - Repetitive Microtrauma
What modalities are best for sub-acute injury to reabsorb hematoma?
Diathermy
US
Laser
What dysfunction can increased pressure from blood and edema lead too?
Compartment Syndrome
What kind of exercises are used for sub acute CONTACT INJURIES?
ROM
Gentle Stretch
Light ISO
**Progress to more advanced stretch and strengthen to return to normal function
Supination =
Adduction
Inversion
Plantar Flexion
Ortho diagnosis fall into 3 categories?
Post Surgical
traumatic
Idiopathic
Tendonitis is a ________________ problem
deceleration problem
What does the articular disc between the radial and ulnar joint do?
(TFCC)
1. Stability
2. Joint Congruency
3. Provides shock absorption against compressive forces
Pronation =
Abduction
Eversion
Dorsiflexion
What are the 3 main things you need for posture?
- Rom
- Awareness
- Strength
What do you movement do you want to avoid with spondylolisthesis?
Avoid extension
It can cause a shift
We want to stabilize
