Q

scapulothoroacic open pack position

A

arm by side

scapula in average 30-45 degrees IR, slight UR, 5-20 degrees ant tilt

28
Q

scapulothoracic mechanics during full arm elevation

A

60 UR
15-30 post tipping
15-25 ER

29
Q

Biomechanics of elevation 0-90

A

supraspinatus contracts to initiate abduction
remaining RC contract to pull humeral head into glenoid fossa
around 20-30 degrees, scapular upward rotation begins with concurrent clavicular elevation and axial rotation
at 90 degrees, upper extreme of GH abduction is reached and clavicular elevation creases due to tension of costoclavicular ligament
at this point the scapular has rotated upwardly around 30 degrees

30
Q

biomechanics of elevation 90-150

A

scapula UR 60 degrees with scapular contribution peaking between 90-140 degrees
120 humeral elevation
75 degrees of GH ER needed
UR accompanied at SC and AC by 30-40 degrees of post clavicular axial rotation and clavicular elevation of 30-36

31
Q

biomechanics of elevation 150-180

A

abduction beyond 150 requires adequate motion of upper thorax and cervical spine, while bilateral abduction requires thoracic ext and increase in lumbar lordosis

32
Q

strengthening should be preformed in ? plane

A

scapular

33
Q

adhesive capsulitis

A
frozen shoulder
restriction in active and passive ROM
female
>40

can take 1-3 years to resolve
34
Q

adhesive capsulitis stages of progression

A
  1. mild signs and symptoms
35
Q

adhesive capsulitis intervention per stage

A
  • determine degree of inflammation and irritability
    1. actue- relieve pain and gentle stretch to capsule
  • low grade mob, pendulum exercises, passive stretching upper trap and levator scapulae, postural awareness
    2. subacute- more agressive ROM exercises, strengthening with isometrics then concentric
    3. stages 3 and 4- grade IV mob, low load long duration stretching
36
Q

glenohumeral instability continuum

A
  • instability- abnormal symptomatic motion of the Gh joint that affects normal joint kinematics and results in pain, subluxation, or dislocation
  • subluxation- joint contact lost but capsule not necessarily torn, might just be stretched, UE paralysis, multiple dislocations
  • dislocation- complete separation of the joint surfaces, usually ANT, concern axillary N injury
37
Q

A

frequency
magnitude/degree
direction
origin

38

most common complaint is pain
often result of trauma
repetitive microtrauma
joint laxity
ant instability (98%)
pain with over head movements 
symptoms occurs in abduction and ER position
41
Q

special tests: 
provacative

42
Q

47
Q

AC joint sprain

A

one of the most frequently injured joints
acute- fall onto shoulder with arm ADDUCTED at side
chronic-OA, inflammatory arthritis, mechanical problems
usually involved dislocation

48
Q

6 types of AC joint sprain

A

1- tenderness and mild pain
2-slight visual change in acromion/clavicle, if displaced acromion
3- obvious gap between acromion and clavicle, inf displaced acromion
4- clavicle displaced posteriorly
5- large distance between clavicle and coracoid process, inf displacement acromion
6- often associated fracture of clavicle and upper ribs and injury brachial plexus

49
Q

AC joint sprain examination

A
localized pain
step off deformity
pain at end range motions
crossover test
1- pain with resisted adduction
2- pain with resisted adduction and abduction
3- all active motions painful, esp ABDUCTION
immobilization 1,2,3
surgery for 4, 5, 6 bc displaced
50
Q

rotator cuff pathology

A

50-70 % shoulder issues
SUPRASPINATUS most often affected (LOW blood supply)
injury mechanism: compression-reduction size subacromial space, tensile overload-throwing, hammering
macrotrauma
tendonitis- supra followed by infra
tears- more common in men than women

51
Q

RC history

A

pain, weakness, loss of ROM
dull ache worse after activity, sleep on affected arm, reaching, putting on coat
loss of function, can’t hold arm out (tear)
tendonitis- better after 3 weeks, full AROM and PROM but painful, DEEP FRICTION massage
tear- pop at injury, sudden onset, not better after 3 weeks
higher humerus, palpable defect at gr tuberosity, muscle atrophy, reverse scap humeral rhythm

52
Q

RC exam

A

painful arc- mid range elevation pain b/c tissues most activated (supraspinatus pain most evident during abduction or caption 50-130 degrees)
resisted motion:
supraspinatus- pain with abduction and ER
infraspinatus- pain with ER
complete tear- positive drop arm test
partial tear-positive supraspinatus test
list off test- biceps tendon, subscapularis
ER lag- supraspinatus or infra

53
Q

muscle contractile injuries painful when

A

passively stretched and actively shortened

54
Q

subacromal impingement syndrome

A

increase in sup translation of humeral head results in decrease space in coracoacromial arch
intervention- isometrics-closed-open, RC strengthen, scapulothoracic

55
Q

Primary SIS

A

primary-ANT impingement, intrinsic degenerative process in the structures occupying the subacromial space, mechanical encroachment, >40 yo, may be hypomobile
limited horizontal abduction, limited IR, post cap tightness, pain with over head activity

56
Q

Secondary SIS

A

secondary- CORACOID impingement, lesser tuberosity of the humerus encroaches on the coracoid process (alters PICR, humerus migrates too sup), hyper mobility, instability
limited IR, excessive ER

57
Q

shoulder arthritis

A
humeral head migrating sup or history of trauma can accelerate degenerative changes
loss of ROM and strength 
capsular pattern
compression/sleeping can cause pain
AC joint most commonly affected
58
Q

shoulder surgical options

A

TSA-replace glenoid fossa and head of the humerus
hemiarthroplasty-replace head of humerus
reverse total shoulder- invert prothesis so ball is on the scapula and concavity is on the humerus (when RC not salvageable)

59
Q

subacromial bursitis

A

where friction between bone and tendon is typical
excessive friction can lead to inflammation
3 types: activity/trauma, calcified, infectious
can be seen with autoimmune disease
rubbing will make it worse
iontophoresis can help calcifications

60
Q

bursitis history/exam

A

may or may not have MOI
aching over deltoid region
rapid onset with activity
pain reproduced with passive abduction at 180, passive IR, passive horizontal adduction (may feel empty end feel)
acute-may not be able to reach overhead
noncapsular pattern
palpation distal to AC joint with shoulder held in extension
