Shoulder Anatomy Flashcards
SH Rhythm: Phase 1, part 1
0-30deg
GH contributes all motion, scapula does nothing
SH Rhythm: Phase 1, part 2
30-90deg
GH contributes 30
Scapula contributes 30
SH Rhythm: Phase 1, part 2 scapula motion is…
a) SC > AC
b) AC > SC
a) SC > AC
SH Rhythm: Phase 2 scapula motion is…
a) SC > AC
b) AC > SC
b) AC > SC
SH Rhythm: Phase 2
90-180deg
GH contributes 60
Scap contributes 30
SH Rhythm: overall, what is the ratio of GH:ST motion?
2:1
Phase 1: what scapula motions?
elevation
up rotation
post tipping
ER
At 90deg, why is GH ER important?
If no ER = jt would “lock” bc greater tub against acromial arch.
ER allows greater tub to clear arch.
Max elevation of GH frozen
60deg
Max elevation if no GH ER
90deg
CT contribution for unilateral elevation
last 10-20deg
contralat side bend
CT contribution for bilateral elevation
last 10-20deg
extension
Rhomboids action
Concentric: down rotates scap.
Eccentric: controls up rotation (generated by concentric action of Trap & Serratus Ant).
Upper trap is coupled with ____ Serratus Anterior
Lower
and vice versa
RC muscles are most active at _____deg elevation
0-115
painful arc SIS
60-120
painful arc AC
170-180
resting position of scapula
ribs 2-7
10-20deg ant tip
10-20deg up rotated
30-40deg IR
how is the resting position of the scapula affected with fwd head posture?
Scap down rotated
Slack on sup GH capsule
less flex ROM
RC musc contract to maintain jt integrity
causes of scap dyskinesis
musc weakness/imbalance
nerve, AC, or RC injury
sup labral tear
Anterior tip: what does it look like?
inf angle more prominent.
Anterior tip: weak muscles
lower trap
lats
serr ant
Anterior tip: tight muscles
pecs
Winging: what does it look like?
med border more prominent.
