Q

What is calcific tendonitis in the shoulder?

A
  1. microscopic changes in hyaline cartilage and degeneration of collagen in tendon loosening and separating tendon fibers
  2. the separted fibers are pulverized into small particales that contain calcium salts
  3. the debris forms a liquid chalky area that is pressurized by the surrounding structures

Q

how does scapular position effect RTC function?

A

As the scapula retracts in to a millitary posture the IAR is moved up with the line of pull of the RTC creating compression of the joint with RTC activitation instead of downward glide

  3. about 8.7 mm when healthy and 6.8 when pathological
29
Q

how does neutral passive ER effect loading pattern when you suspect impingement?

A

the supraspinatus tendon is moved out from under the coracoacromial ligament and the tip of the acromium is moved into an area with greater space

30
Q

how can a vascular comprimise occur in the long head of the biceps?

A
  1. with sustained forward flexion the long head of the biceps is compressed under the coracoacromial ligament
31
Q

supraspinatus develops a nodule that catches as it passess under the acromial arch

34
Q

How would you expect a chronically irritated tendon to look?

A
  1. decreased number of inflamitory cells
  2. tendon can become dull, gray and edematous
  3. fibroblast invade and vascularization increases
35
Q

how is blood flow to the shoulder effected by arm position?

A

in a zone about 1 cm proximal to the insertion of the supraspinatus on the greater tuberosity complete blockage occurs at 0 degree add and restarts at about 15 degree abduction

36
Q

what are some typcial causes of protracted scapula?

A
  1. RTC pathology
  2. thoracic kyphosis
  3. cerical injury
  4. nerve root injry
  5. MTL
  6. dysfunction leading to high costal breathing
37
Q

how can a protracted scapula impact shoulder pathology?

A
  1. puts the acromium into a protracted and depressed posture and decreasign the space available for movement
  2. reducted muscle firing effiecency
  3. abnormal length tension relationships
  4. tight posterior GH capsule
  5. decreased capacity for stored muscular energy
38
Q

What is Neer’s classification of impingments?

  2. stage II- decreased subacromial space, volutary reduction in activty, crepitation secondary to fibrosis, radiographic changes, no longer reversalbe
  3. stage iii- RTC tears, bicep rupture, boney changes, AC involvment, superior migration of humeral head
39

Q

what is the concept of segmental circulation?

A

the indirect effect of increased blood flow to the target muscle by exercising the muscle around it

45
Q

how does chonic tendonitis effect exercise prescription?

A

the muscle is already over taxed and has no energy to give so you have to decrease the tone and provide segmental circulation

46

  1. subscap and capsuel
  2. infraspinatus and capsule
  3. summit of acromium

47
Q

what is the subdeltoid bursa

A
  1. provides smooth gliding for RTC and inner deltoid
  2. adheres to the coracoacromial ligament and acormium
  3. extends over the greater tuberosity, inferior deltoid, under the coracoid and postiorly to the acromium
48
Q

what bursa of the shoulder are continuous with the capsule

A

1.subscap

2,infraspinatus

49
Q

what would you expect to find with subdeltoid bursitis>

Q

what is the function of the RTC

A

arthokenematic motion to keep the humerus in the center of the glenoid

51
Q

what muscle can you rule out when there is a painful arc of motion?

A

deltoid because it can’t get impinged

52
Q

What is the cyriax differerential for supraspinatus lesion?

A

location of pain dictates location of lesion

  1. painful arc- lesion medial to greater tuberotisty
  2. pain arc with ER- lesion is more anterior with IR it is more posterior
  3. end of ROM- deeper lesion requiring pinching of greater tuberosity on glenoid rim
  4. no pain- muscular
53

DD supraspinatus impingement

A
  1. painful arc
  2. sharp catching
  3. full ROM
  4. ER rotation relieve catching
  5. pain referred to deltoid tubercle
  6. IR from neutral increases pain

A
  1. pain with palm up resistance with outstretched
  2. reduced pain with IR
  3. tenderness over biceps
56
Q

What test would differentiate biceps versus supraspinatus

A

empty can because biceps in not active in the position

57
Q

how does the biceps change with degeneration

A
  1. splaying and narrowing of the tendon
  2. synovial proliferation
  3. fibrouis adhesions to the tendon
  4. altered gliding mechanism within the sheath
58
Q

DD biceps tendon subluxation

A
  1. Yergason’s=- palpate tendon in neutral position and have patient resist ER and supination
  2. abduct and ER the shoulder and palpate the tending
  3. passive rotation of shoulder should feel it pop out or snap
