Shoulder Pathos Flashcards
what is the most common MOI for ACJ injuries?
medial/inferior force to the ACJ - football or fall
what is the order of structures injured in an ACJ injury?
AC ligament > CC ligament > delt/trap attachments
what is a type 1 ACJ injury?
AC ligament sprain
CC ligament intact
delt/trap intact
what is a type 2 ACJ injury?
AC ligaments disrupted
CC ligaments sprained
delt/trap intact
what is a type 3 ACJ injury?
AC ligaments disrupted
CC ligaments disrupted (25-100% larger space)
delt/traps detached
what is the major difference between a type 3 and type 4 ACJ injury?
the clavicle is posteriorly displaced in a type 4 injury
what is the major difference between a type 3 and type 5 ACJ injury?
ACJ grossly displaced 100-300% requiring surgery
what is the major difference between a type 3 and a type 6 ACJ injury?
the clavicle is displaced inferiorly
although the most common ACJ MOI is a direct blow, what are three other MOIS?
- FOOSH
- elbow jammed upward
- traction
what are the two sports most commonly associated with ACJ arthrosis
baseball and weightlifting
which three items clue you in to an ACJ pathology?
- MOI
- focal pain at ACJ w radiation proximally
- delt is round, but depressed
what are the four major special tests you should use to dx an ACJ pathology
- o’brien’s active compression
- cross body adduction
- ACJ TTP
- end range painful arc
what three classifications can be made for impingement?
internal, external subacromial, external subcoracoid
describe internal impingement
infra/supraspinatus impinges between labrum/glenoid and greater tuberosity causing tendon fraying and pain
what is the typical patient profile for internal impingement? when does the majority of pain occur?
young overhead throwers during the late cocking phase
what is tight in internal impingement?
posterior IGHL
what is the most common structure of acromion associated with impingement?
type 3 hooked in 70% of cadaveric shoulders
where do we observe external impingement pain in the painful arc test?
60-120 abd > flexion
what is GIRD? who has it?
loss of GH IR due to bone changes, posterior capsule tightness, or RTC tightness
throwing athletes
What is the CPG to rule in shoulder pain from muscle power deficits? (4)
- symptoms worsen with repetitive overhead mvmts
- midrange catching
- midrange resistance flx/abd pain
- weak RTC
what is the CPG to rule out shoulder pain from muscle power deficits? (4)
- resistive tests pain-free
- supra/infra/biceps normal strength
- loss of PROM
define multidirectional instability of the GHJ
MDI: symptomatic laxity in two or more directions, one of which is always inferior
differentiate between laxity and instability
laxity - extent to which the humeral head can be translated on the glenoid
instability - abnormal increase in GH translation causing symptoms related to sublux/dislocation
what are the two classifications of instability?
AMBRI and TUBS
what is AMBRI
atraumatic, multidirectional, bilateral, rehab effective, inferior capsule shift
what is TUBS
traumatic dislocation, unidirectional, bankhart, surgery
what is the most common pathology seen in anterior shoulder dislocations?
bankart lesion
