shoulder Flashcards
clavicle
s shaped bone
keeps the shoulder complex in its normal lateral position, keeps arm out
landmarks: sternal end(sternum), acromial end(scapula)
fracture
changes in shape, weaker more lateral 1/3 middle overlaps
bones of the shoulder
clavicle, scapula, humerus
scapula (shoulder blade)
superior, posterior thorax
landmarks: acromion process, coracoid process, spine
glenoid fossa-forms the shallow cup where the humerus rests
humerus
articulates with glenoid fossa
shoulder movements
flexion & extension - sagittal plane abduction & adduction - frontal plane internal & external rotation & horizontal flexion & extension - transverse elevation & depression protraction & retraction circumduction - all planes
shoulder ligaments
acromioclavicular ligament
coracromial ligament
coracohumoral ligament
glenohumeral ligaments
shoulder girdle muscles
5 primary trapezius- upper, middle, lower rhomboid- deep levator scapula- elevate scapula serratus anterior- abduction, upper rotation pectoralis minor-deep subclavius- depression, abduction posterior muscles- slow down arm rotation at end
shoulder joints
glenohumeral
acromioclavicular
sternoclavicular
glenohumeral joint (capsule)
glenoid fossa-humerus
where shoulder movement & dislocation occur
held in place by: ligaments, muscles, labrum
3 ligaments
superior, middle, inferior glenohumeral
anterior
anterior capsule-most vulnerable
acromioclavicular joint (AC joint)
clavicle-acromion
acromioclavicular & coricoclavicular(coracoid process-clavicle) ligament
injury-tender, sprain, separation
1-horizontal flexion hurts
2-2 ligaments, more pain, loss function/ROM(worst long term)
3-3 ligaments, complete rupture, clavicle point up
mechanism: land on point of shoulder, outstretched hand, driven up/down
not fixed-hard to keep ROM, lasting of procedure, recovery time
test: piano key- shoulder separation, sprain, ligament tears
sternoclavicular joint (SC joint)
sternum-clavicle
rare for injuries
sprain or dislocation
posterior dislocation-bad(trachea, coratid artery, esophagus)
scapula
moves 1 for every 2 degrees of abduction humerus
scapulathoracic joint- holds scapula in place
movements of the scapula
elevation- upward depression- downward abduction- protraction (laterally) adduction- retraction (medially) upward rotation downward rotation1
rotator cuff
rotates, keeps humoral head in socket 4 muscles Supraspinatus- ext rot Infraspinatus- ext rot Teres Minor- ext rot Subscapularis- int rot biceps tendon attaches to labrum positive- shortening muscle- concentric negative- lengthening muscle- eccentric rotator cuff & biceps tendon ->slow down arm SLAP lesion(superior labrum anterior posterior tendonitis, rupture, tear, capsule looseness, dislocate(anterior inferior) sprain
lesions
hill-sachs- top of humeral head (posterior superior)
bank heart- socket (anterior inferior)
