How many degrees of freedom does the sternoclavicular joint have?
3
Elevation/depression
protraction/retraction
A/P rotation
Elevation and depression of the sternoclavicular joint occurs between the….
Disc and clavicle
remember elevation/depression happens more distally on the joint
Protraction and retraction of the sternoclavicular joint occurs between the….
Disc and manubrium
remember protraction retraction happens more proximally on the joint
Anterior posterior rotation of the sternoclavicular joint occurs between the….
Clavicle and the costal cartilage of 1st rib
The sternoclavicular joint consists of 2 synovial _____ joints
What are they?
Plane joints
Superior: between disc and medial clavicle
inferior: medial clavicle with manubrium and first costal cartilage
What is the purpose of the sternoclavicular disc?
Increases joint congruence and absorbs force
creates two seperate joint cavities and acts as pivot during motion
During elevation and depression of the sternoclavicular joint: the ______ rolls and glides on the _____
Clavicle on the disc
during protraction and retraction of the sternoclavicular joint, the ____________ roll and slide on the _________
Clavicle and disc on the manubrium
The anterior and posterior sternoclavicular ligament both limit ______
which is the primary?
Anterior/posterior translation
posterior ligament is the primary
What ligament limits elevation of lateral clavicle and counteracts force of SCM/sternohyoid muscle
costoclavicular ligament
What ligament resists excessive depression of clavicle and superior gliding of clavicle on manubrium
interclavicular ligament
What is normal SC elevation?
48
What is normal SC depression
15
What is normal SC protraction?
15-20
what is normal SC retraction?
30
What is normal posterior rotation of the SC?
Anterior?
Posterior: 50
Anterior: 10
During SC elevation: the lateral end of clavicle moves upward and the medial end rolls _______ and slides ______ on the sternum
rolls superiorly and slides inferiorly
During SC depression, the Lateral end of clavicle moves downward
Medial end of clavicle rolls _______ and slides ________
rolls inferiorly and slides superiorly
During SC protraction, the Lateral clavicle moves anteriorly in transverse plane
Medial clavicle roll and slide __________ on sternum
anteriorly
During SC retraction: Lateral clavicle moves posteriorly
Medial clavicle roll and slide ____________
posteriorly
During SC Elevation depression the roll and slide are ______
during SC protraction/retraction the roll and slide are _____
Opposite
Same
SC Joint Stability facts
Incongruent but stable link to axial skeleton
Degenerative changes uncommon
Disc and ligament structures help to dissipate forces
Represent 1-3% of joint dislocations in body
subluxations may be more frequent
What is the purpose of the AC joint?
Allows scapula to rotate during arm movement:
Increases UE motion
Positions glenoid beneath humeral head
Maximizes scapula contact to thorax
The lateral clavicle’s contact with the acromion is _____ in orientation and susceptible to ____ forces
Vertical
Shear forces
Note: This joint varys in congruence and configuration person to person, Variable disc at this joint that may or may not form
The AC joint has a ____ capsule and ____ ligaments
weak capsule
strong ligaments
What is the purpose of the superior AC and inferior AC ligament
resists opposing forces
inferior ligament is not as strong
Note: these are reinforced by the deltoids and traps
What are the two parts of the coracoclavicular ligament?
Conoid
Trapezoid
What is the purpose of the conoid ligament?
Resists inferior forces
What is the purpose of the trapezoid ligament
resist posterior translation
Note: trapezoid is in the front so it can resist clavicule moving back
