Shoulder girdle bones/movement Flashcards
What makes up the shoulder complex
shoulder gridle and glenohumeral joint
2 functions of the shoulder complex
Mobility vs stability
What provides SOME stability for the UE
girdle
Is movement of the girdle dependent on shoulder joint and muscles
NO. Movement is not
What kind of stability does the shoulder gridle have
Dynamic
Function of the shoulder complex
Mobility. Greatest mobility of any joint
What happens at the shoulder girdle during a bench press during the lowing phase
Horizontal Abduction
3 joints of the shoulder girdle
Sternoclavicular (SC)
acromioclavicular (AC)
scapulothoracic (ST)
Why does the scapula move on the rib cage
Joint motion occurring at the SC joint and less the AC joint
Osteology of the SC Sternoclavicular joint
Clavicle, sternum 1st rib
Joint type for sternoclavicular joint
Arthrodial ( plane synovial)
Degrees of freedom for sternoclavicular joint
three (3)
What is the only synovial articulation between the axial and appendicular skeleton?
Sternoclavicular joint
three Ligaments of the sternoclavicular joints
costoclavicular, sternoclavicular, interclavicular
has articulating disc
SC joint Osteokinematics planes of motion
F/T/”S”
What has a greater range of motion in the SC joint
Posterior rotation (30-70) is greatest, then elevation (45) with depression, protraction/retraction (15)
Is the SC joint often injured
not by macrotrauma–sprain or dislocation
Acromioclavicular joint osteology
acromion, distal end of clavicle
