Pre Lab Sauderland Flashcards
What is this: the lateral portion of the scapular region, where the scapular joins with the clavicle and the humerus and where the region is covered by the rounded mass of the deltoid muscle
shoulder
What muscles make up the rotator cuff?
subscapularis
infraspinatus
teres minor
supraspinatus
What is unusual about the coracoacromial ligament?
it goes from one part of the scapular to another!
What are these symptoms of: Shoulder pain and tenderness, especially when reaching overhead, reaching to the back, lifting, sleeping on affected side Shoulder weakness Loss of shoulder range of motion Inclination to keep shoulder inactive
rotator cuff injury
What are the causes of rotator cuff injury?
Tendinitis (often due to overuse or overload)
Bursitis (irritation, inflammation, and attrition of supraspinatus tendon and wall of subacromial bursa
What are risk factors of rotator cuff injury?
age (over 40)
being an athlete
construction worker
poor posture and weak shoulder muscles
How do you fix a rotator cuff via surgery?
surgical acromioplasty
subacromial bursectomy
rotator cuff reconstruction
What is this:
tendons become entrapped under the acromian; compression, injury, rotator cuff tendonitis
rotator cuff impingement syndrome
A rotator cuff injury with attrition (wearing away by friction or rubbing) of the supraspinatus tendon, results in (blank)
degenerative tendonitis
Where is there a potential space at the axillary area?
between the rib and the serratus anterior
Where is the serratus anterior attached to the scapula?
at the medial border
How can you tell someone has serratus anterior paralysis?
you have winged (protruding) scapula on affected side
Injuries to the (blank) will affect the important function of the serratus anterior muscle. The muscle can no longer protract the scapula or abduct the arm completely.
long thoracic nerve
How do you damage the LT nerve?
it runs vertical and superficial so it can be stabbed, or crushed or screwed up surgery (construction workers get it a lot)
Where is the basilic vein?
where is the cephalic vein?
Why are these important?
near the pinky side of the forearm (ulnar)
near the thumb side of the forearm (radial) and lies between the groove of the deltoid and pectoralis major
This is where you draw blood and inject things into.
