38
coracoclavicular ligament checks
primarily superior dislocation of the clavicle *** important**
39
coracoclavicular ligament
limits & assists scapula movement
40
acromioclavicular joint
susceptible to trauma (dislocation) & degenerative changes
41
acromioclavicular separation
tearing of the coracoclavicular ligament | --> this lets the clavicle go up and then the Acromioclavicular ligament tears
42
labrum
(at glenohumeral) - redundant fold of dense fibrous connective tissue continuous with capsule - increase joint congruency
43
capsule of glenhumeral joint
- taut superiorly - loose anteriorly < inferiorly - risk of dislocation: anterior > inferior > posterior > superior

50
bursa of GH joint
subacromial -- can be 2 distinct bursa (subacromial & sub deltoid) --> common site of pain
51
function of bursa
prevent friction at tendon
52
bursitis
synovial filled sac (bursa) is swollen
53
coracoacromial (suprahumeral arch)
- osteoligamentus ceiling of GH joint - subacromial bursa lies between it and the humeral head - region of pain secondary to impingement
54
coracoacromial (suprahumeral arch) prevents
the humeral head from dislocating superiorly

same direction (stabile convex)
70
stable concave and structure moves in
opposite direction (moving convex)
71
arm at side (dependent position) is
the superior joint capsule & coracohumeral ligament | --> keeps joint in approximation when in normal rest state
72
supraspinatus becomes active with:
heavier loads
73
muscle function of dynamic stabilization -- GH joint
- move the humerus - provide intra-articular gliding - maintain apposition of joint (good approximation because of strong muscles and support)
74
dynamic stabilization -- abduction
deltoid & supraspinatus
75
dynamic stabilization -- flexion
anterior deltoid (mainly translatory)
76
unopposed deltoid activity
- impaction of the humeral head in the coracoacromial arch | - rotator cuff is the opposing force (specifically: infraspinatus, subscapularis, trees minor)
77
Rotator cuff muscles
supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor & subscapularis - blends w/ and reinforces joint capsule

superior ROTATOR CUFF FUNCTION
83

84
predispositions to dislocations at the rotator cuff
- anterior tilt of glenoid fossa - excessive retrotorsion - weakened rotator cuff
85
biceps tendon (@ rotator cuff)
supraglenoid tubercle --> ulna - long head reinforces the anterior glenohumeral joint - wearing of bicipital tendon sheath transverse humeral ligament - poorly vascularized
86
scapulohumeral rhythm
180 deg = 120 glenhumeral joint movement + 60 deg scapulothoracic joint
87
ratio of scapulohumeral ryhthm
Glenohumeral:Scapulothoracic = 2:1 over the entire range for every 2 degrees of GH you get 1 deg of scapula movement
88
Scapulohumeral rhythm for pre-phase/setting: Inconsistent amount of scapula movement causes
proximal stability for distal mobility
89
Scapulohumeral rhythm pre-phase/setting: G-H movement
60 degrees flexion and 30 degrees abduction TOTAL= 30 - 60 degrees all G-H motion
90
Scapulohumeral rhythm: phase I & Scapulothoracic motion muscle movement
Trapezius (upper & lower) & serratus anterior (upper & lower) contract
91
Scapulohumeral rhythm: phase I & Scapulothoracic motion ligament movement
coracoclavicular ligament tightens locks AC joint because the AC joint is locked down the scapula & clavicle can move together
92
Scapulohumeral rhythm: phase I & Scapulothoracic motion clavicle motion
clavicle elevates about 30 degrees through sternoclavicular joint
93
Scapulohumeral rhythm: phase I & Scapulothoracic motion scapula movement
tipping & 10 degrees of winging The scapula and clavicle move together because the AC joint is locked down
94
Scapulohumeral rhythm: phase II & acromioclavicular motion ligament motion
- costoclavicular ligament tightens - the taut costoclavicular ligament pulls down on the coracoid - this pulls the conoid tubercle of the clavicle down
95
Scapulohumeral rhythm: phase II & acromioclavicular motion movement of the clavicle
rotation of clavicle on long axis
96
Scapulohumeral rhythm: phase II & acromioclavicular motion movement of the scapula

60 deg glenohumeral, 30 degrees scapulothoracic about acromioclavicular joint
99
The significance of sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular motion
for clavicle to rotate about its longitudinal axis
100
Scapulohumeral rhythm function
- distribute large ROM between 2 joints, less compromise of stability - maintain optimal position of glenoid fossa - maintain optimal length-tension relationship for muscles
101
Deltoid
- middle deltoid abducts - maintenance of optimal length-tension is dependent on scapula motion - Rotator cuff (oblique - infraspinatus, subscapularis, trees minor): combines with deltoid to form a force couple
102
Supraspinatus motions
- Major abductor and flexor (prepares glenohumeral joint for shoulder flexion) - during abduction pulls humerus head into shoulder joint - begins glenohumeral joint through full ROM without deltoid
103
Supraspinatus functions
- Primary mover for abuction and flexion - Compresses G-H joint - Steers humeral head vertically
104
Infraspinatus & teres minor
external rotation | - compresses & stabilizes
105
subscapularis
internal rotation | - compresses and stabilizes
106
Two force couples - muscle function
- upper segments of traps and serratus anterior along with levator scapula - lower segments of traps and serratus anterior
107
force couples
pull in different directions but produce the same movement
108
downward rotation of shoulder (force couples)
- pec minor = pull down - levator scapulae = pull up - latissimus dorsi = pull down
109
upward rotation of shoulder (force couples)
- lower traps = pull down - upper traps = pull up - serratus anterior = pulls up from forward
110
function of latissimus dorsi
- adduction, medial rotation, extension of humerus - adduction and depression of scapula - seated push ups & crutch walking (holds scap down in place when you push your body upward)
111
function of pectorals major
- clavicular head - flex glenohumeral joint | - sternal portion parallels the latissimus to depress the shoulder complex
112
function of pectorals minor
- depress and rotates scapula downward
113
function of trees major
- adduction, medial rotation, extension of humerus latts helper~~
