Shoulder Lab Flashcards
Shoulder Anatomy:
Which 3 Bones?
3 True Synovial Joints
2 Functional Joints
2 Accessory Joints
- Clavicle, Humerus, Scapula (Coracoid & Acromion)
- Glenohumeral, Sternoclavicular, Acromioclavicular
- Scapulothoracic (Scapula on Thoracic cage) & Suprahumeral
- Costosternal & Costovertebral
TART: Structural Landmarks
Shoulder Height
Spine of Scapula
Angle of Scapula
Shoulder Position in Sagittal Plane
Shoulder ROM
Flexion
Extension
Horizontal Adduction
Horizontal Abduction
Abduction
Internal/External Rotation
180
60
130-140
40-55
180
90
Scapular Motion Testing
Downward Rotation
Upward Rotation
Scapulo-Humeral Rhythm
Turning on A/P axis so scapula rotates in frontal plane to tilt glenoid fossa downward
Turning on A/P axis so scapula rotates in frontal plane to tilt glenoid fossa upward
1:2 Ratio of scapular motion to humeral motion (180 degrees abduction = 60 scapular + 120 humeral)
Scapular Motion Testing:
Elevation
Depression
Abduction (Protraction)
Adduction (Retraction)
Backward Tilt
Forward Tilt
Superior glide in vertical direction along Coronal Plane
Inferior glide in vertical direction along Coronal Plane
Away from spine, combined with lateral tilt around thorax
Moving closer to the spine
Turning on horizontal axis so posterior surface faces downward and inferior angle is anterior
Turning on horizontal axis so posterior surface faces upward and inferior angle protrudes
