Shoulder Instability Flashcards
which joint is most likely to be hypermobile
GH joint
rate of primary dislocation overall
3:1 male to female
9:1 in the 21-30 yo group
3:1 female to male in the 60-80 yo group
reoccurance
80-95% in young adults
10-15% age > 45 yo
MOI
traumatic
atraumatic
traumatic –> MOI
majority of cases
severe pain
deformity
traumatic injury
anterior and posterior dislocation
trauma forces arm –> anterior dislocation
into ER and ABD (90/90 position)
% of all traumatic dislocation –> anterior dislocation
95%
immediately post trauma –> anterior dislocation
arm positioned in slight ABD and ER
trauma forces arm –> posterior dislocation
directly posterior
% of all traumatic dislocations –> posterior dislocation
5%
classic –> posterior dislocation
steering wheel injury
immediately post trauma –> posterior dislocation
arm positioned in ADD and IR
why should reduction be done ASAP
due to increased pain
potential vascular supply injury
potential injury to thoracic outlet structures
soft tissue response
usually –> Atraumatic
multidirectional instability
what cant stabilize the joint –> Atraumatic
bony structures
what does the pt have –> Atraumatic
severe ligamentous laxity
what does atraumatic create
chronic fatigue (overuse) of muscles
prolonged microtrauma
normal stability components
bone
capsuloligamentous (static)
muscular (dynamic)
movement
primary or secondary
primary movement
side of translation
secondary movement
side opposite of translation
bony stability
coracoacromial arch
muscular stability
LHB
RC
scapular stabilizers
capsuloligamentous stability
capsule
capsular GH ligs
grading anterior stability
grades 1-3
grade 1 –> anterior stability
25-50% translation
w/o dislocation
grade 2 –> anterior stability
> 50% translation
dislocation w/ spontaneous reduction
grade 3 –> anterior stability
> 50%
dislocation w/o reduction
