prevention of shoulder injuries
-for overhead athletes, emphasis should be placed on strengthening the rotator cuff muscles
-scapular stabilization strengthening exercises help provide a base for the highly mobile GH joint
-proper falling technique
what muscles are targeted by scapular stabilization strengthening exercises
-serratus anterior
-middle trap
-lower trap
____ is required for distal mobility
proximal stability
phases of correct throwing technique (5)
-wind up phase
-cocking phase
-acceleration phase
-deceleration phase
-follow-through phase
throwing- wind up phase
-preparation phase
-lead leg strides forward
-shoulder starts to abduct + externally rotate
throwing- cocking phase
-begins when hands separate
-ends with shoulder in maximal external rotation
throwing- acceleration phase
-lasts from maximal external rotation until the ball releases
throwing- deceleration phase
-lasts from ball release until max shoulder internal rotation
-shoulder external rotators contract eccentrically to decelerate the humerus
throwing- follow-through phase
-lasts from maximum shoulder internal rotation until the end of motion, when there is a balanced position
assessing the shoulder complex- history
-what happened to cause the pain?
-where is the pain located?
-is there a feeling of weakness or a sense of fatigue?
-what shoulder movements or positions seem to aggravate or relieve the pain?
assessing the shoulder complex- observation
-anterior, lateral, + posterior
-obvious deformity?
-one shoulder higher?
-shoulders rounded?
-scapular movement
assessing the shoulder complex- palpation
-point tenderness
-abnormal swelling/lumps
-muscle spasm/guarding + trigger points
-palpate anteriorly + posteriorly
clavical fx- cause
-fall on an outstretched arm
-fall on the tip of the shoulder
-direct impact
clavicle fx- signs
-injured clavicle appears lower on the affected side

acromioclavicular joint sprain- care
-POLICE
-immobilization
-referral for further imaging
glenohumeral dislocations- cause
-forced abduction with external rotation
-landing on an outstretched arm
glenohumeral dislocations- signs
-obvious deformity
-moderate to severe pain + disability
glenohumeral dislocations- care
-immediate immobilization using a sling
-shoulder must be reduced
-further imaging for potential fx
shoulder impingement syndrome- cause
-repetitive compression of shoulder structures (biceps tendon, supraspinatus, etc.)
-throwing, swimming, serving a tennis ball, spiking a volleyball, etc.
-anatomy
