Q

what 4 joints make up the shoulder?

A
  1. Glenohumeral joint - a shallow cavity (hole) in the scapula where the humerous sits.

Q

what do the anterior compartment muscles all have in common?

A
  • ALL innervated by musculocutanenous nerve
  • ALL supplied by muscular branch of brachial artery
  • ALL function of flexion of arm and/or forearm
22
Q

action of biceps brachii

A

flexion of arm and forearm

supination of forearm

23
Q

what are the attachments of the infraspinatus

A

infraspinatous fossa
to
greater tubercle

24
Q

most common complication of a shoulder dislocation

A

axillary nerve damage (runs inferiorly to humeral head and wraps around surgical neck of humerus)

*check sensation of “shoulder badge” and deltoid strength

25
Q

what are the attachments of the subscapularis

A

subscapular fossa
to
lesser tubercle

26
Q

MOI: blow to abducted externally rotated and extended arm

A

anterior shoulder dislocation

27
Q

what is the blood supply to the infraspinatus m.

A

suprascapular and circumflex scapular artery

28
Q

what are the attachments of the teres minor

A

middle 1/3rd of scapula
to
greater tubercle

29
Q

actions of coracobrachialis

A

flexion

adduction of arm

30
Q

what are the actions of teres major

A

extension, adduction, medial rotation

31
Q

action of triceps brachia

A

extension of arm (long head)

extension of forearm (long, lateral, and medial heads)

32
Q

what are the actions of the infraspinatus

A

lateral rotation

33
Q

actions of brachialis

A

flexion of arm

34
Q

PE: slightly ABDucted and EXTERNALLY rotated

A

anterior shoulder dislocation

35
Q

what tests assess rotator cuff tear

A
  1. Active painful arc test- pain with abducting arm to side around horizontal
  2. Neer Test- examiner stabilizes scapula while forcing arm into maximal elevation
  3. Hawkins-Kennedy test- Tests subacromial impingement
  4. Drop arm test (failure to smoothly control shoulder adduction)-Supraspinatus test
    • Raise arms to side as high as possible and then lower arms to 90 degrees (arm will drop)
    • Weakness in external rotation
36
Q

what is the antagonist m. to the deltoid

A

latissmus dorsi

37
Q

what is the blood supply to the subscapularis m.

A

subscapular artery

38
Q

what nerve innervates the trapezius

A

Accessory nerve (motor), cervical spine (motor and sensation)

39
Q

what nerve innervates the subscapularis

A

subscapular nerve (C5, C6)

40
Q

what is the aconeus innervated by

A

radial artery

41
Q

what is the blood supply of the teres major

A

subscapular and circumflex scapular arteries

42
Q

MOI: blow to the anterior portion of the shoulder, axial loading of an adducted and internally rotated arm, seizure convulsion

A

posterior shoulder dislocation

43
Q

what are the attachments of the teres major m.

A

medial lip of intertubercular groove of humerus

44
Q

what are the attachments of the supraspinatus
