Q

what type of movement does the Scapulothoracic Joint permit? (6)

A
  1. Protraction – abduction away from the midline (spine)
  2. Retraction – adduction towards the midline (spine)

A

hyaline

30
Q

what type of joint is the Glenohumeral (Shoulder) Joint? How many degrees of freedom does it allow?

A

ball and sock synovial joint
- multi-axial - 3 degrees of freedom

31
Q

Movements of the Shoulder (Glenohumeral Joint)

A

flexion/extension, add/abd, internal/external rotation and circumduction

32
Q

The shoulder, the proximal joint of the upper limb, is the most mobile of all the joints in the ________. It has 3 DOF and this allows it to move the upper limb with respect to the three planes in space.

A

human body

A

median (midsagittal) plane

34
Q

controls the movements of abduction and adduction.

A

antero-posterior axis

35
Q

the______ axis controls the rotational movements

A

vertical axis

36
Q

The head of the humerus is much larger than the glenoid cavity, only approximately ___ of the head of the _________ fits into the ___________

A

1/3 of the head
humerus fits into the glenoid fossa

37
Q

is a ring of fibrocartilage attached to the margins of the glenoid cavity. It widens the cavity slightly but deepens it appreciably so as to make the articular surfaces congruent.

A

Glenoid Labrum
- Attached to bony glenoid to increase SA

38
Q

Attaches to the margins of the glenoid cavity medially and to the anatomical neck of the humerus laterally.

It is covered from the inside by the synovial membrane.

A

Capsule of the Glenohumeral (Shoulder) Joint

39
Q

Shoulder joint: The joint capsule is very loose and permits free movement. It is least supported inferiorly where dislocation commonly occurs. Such a dislocation may damage the closely related axillary nerve.

A

The capsular ligaments of the Glenohumeral (Shoulder) Joint

40
Q

shoulder joint: Anteriorly the joint capsule is reinforced by 3 supplemental bands, called the ………, ……….., and the ……….. glenohumeral ligaments.

A

superior, middle and inferior

41
Q

shoulder joint: posteriorly the joint capsule is reinforced by…

A

rotator cuff muscles and the physical scapula bone

42
Q

Bridges the upper part of the bicipital groove of the humerus (between the greater and lesser tubercles), converts the intertubercular groove into a canal, and functions as a ‘retinaculum’ for the tendon of the long head of the biceps brachii, holding the synovial sheath and tendon in place during glenohumeral movements.

A

Transverse Humeral Ligaments - extrinsic ligament

43
Q

An extrinsic, protective structure formed by the smooth inferior aspect of the acromion and coracoid processes of the scapula, and the coracoacromial ligament bridging the gap between them. This arch overlies the head of the humerus, preventing its superior displacement from the glenoid cavity.

A

Coracoaromial arch

44
Q

what does the Coracoaromial arch restrict?

49
Q

what bursae is found between the acromion and the tendon of the supraspinatus muscle.

A

The subacromial bursa

50
Q

what movement does the subacromial bursa facilitate?

A

frontal

55
Q

When abduction reaches _____ the arm is vertically above the trunk.

180°

56
Q

when the arm is abducted 180 degrees, ___ occurs by rotation of the scapular and ____ by rotation of the humerus at the shoulder joint

A

80
0 degrees is just elbow bent and arm pointing straight infront

58
Q

medial rotation of the shoulder joint ROM

A

95
- For medial rotation to reach this far, the forearm must be pulled behind the trunk, and this introduces a certain degree of extension.

0 degrees is just elbow bent and arm pointing straight infront

59
Q

Horizontal adduction: range ____. Muscles involved: Ant. deltoid, subscapularis, pectoralis major, pectoralis minor, serratus anterior, coracobrachialis, and short H. of biceps.
