24
Q

What are the consequences of a downwardly rotated scapular position on the GHJ and subacromial space ?

A

GHJ: decreased compressive forces, can lead to plastification of superior capsular structures

Subacromial Space: could place strain on bursae and tendons, biceps LH, and supraspinatus

25
Q

What structures live in the subacromial space?

A

supraspinatus, subacromial bursa, biceps LH, part of superior joint capsule

26
Q

A tight post capsule of the GHJ will have what effect on the humeral head during arm elevation ? How does this affect structures in the subacromial space ?

A
  • tension within the stretched posterior capsule may cause slight anterior translation of the humerus at the extremes of flexion.
27
Q

What are the six principles needed for proper arm abduction kinematics ?

A
  1. scapulohumeral rhythm
  2. SC elevation and AC upward rotation
  3. clavicle retraction at SCJ
  4. Scapular posterior tilt and ER
  5. Clavicle posterior rotation
    6.GHJ ER
28
Q

Explain in your own words the scapulohumeral rhythm.

A

2:1

For every 3 degrees of arm abduction after 30 degrees; 2 degrees occur by GH movement and 1 degree by scapulothoracic upward rotation.

120 GHJ total + 60 STJ total = 180 degrees full abduction

29
Q

What compensation during shoulder abduction might you see if the rotator cuff is not working properly and the upper trapezius is overactive ?

A
  • Trapezius and Serratus Anterior Imbalance
  • Shoulder shrug during posture which is less efficient for arm abduction
  • prolonged use leads to pain
30
Q

Explain the force couple mechanisms for: scapular upward rotation and glenohumeral abduction.

A

scapular upward rotation: like a revolving door with trap muscles pulling scapula up and in and delts abducting GH joint and Serratus Anterior

GH abduction: deltoid and supraspinatus pull on humerus supero-medially; RTC muscles pull infero-medially

31
Q

Explain the consequences of habitual rounded shoulders posture.

A

can lead to stress placed on SCJ and ACJ: subacromial impingement
integrity should be assessed

32
Q

What is scapular dyskinesis and what are its effects on ST and GH arthorkinematics, on regions near the shoulder girdle and other structures that live in the shoulder girdle.

A

abnormal movement of scapula ( for example in the case of damage to CN XI)

could lead to protraction during arm flexion and lack of retraction; affecting ROM depending on paralysis type

could lead to winging scapula; RTC degen, ; unstable joints

Could reduce volume in subacromial space leading to impingment

33
Q

Why would one choose to strengthen the shoulder in the scapular plane rather than pure abduction ?

A

It is more natural and generally allows a greater AROM; avoiding narrowing of the subacromial space

34
Q

Explain subacromial impingment syndrome to a patient.

A

a structure in the subacromial space is being pushed on like supraspinatus tendon, bursae, and biceps LH

35
Q

What pathologies can arise from repetitive overhead throwing and why ?

A

-subacromial impingement syndrome- superior migration of humeral head can have many causes; RTC syndrome; OA of ACJ: Ball throwers fracture- humeral spinal fracture from decelerating ER creating shear force; GIRD ( glenohumeral IR deficit ) - makes you more likely to develop shoulder issues

36
Q

What is shoulder instability and what are some causes ?

A

Excessive laxity w/ large translations of humerus

can be caused by GIRD, ligamental deformity/laxity, can be due to joint nature, anterior-inferior subluxation most common

37
Q

What is the difference between a SLAP tear and a Bankart tear ?

A

SLAP: superior labrum tear anterior to posterior; biceps LH “ peel back” mechanism on labrum; 90 degrees of abduction and end range ER

Bankart: anterior- inferior rim labrum tear: anterior instability

38
Q

How would hypomobility at each joint affect the other 2 ?

A

GHJ: total humeral ROM reduced; scapular substitution
SCJ: decreased clavicular motions, decreased scapular upward rotation, increased scapular IR
ACJ: scapular motion limited; SCJ motion limited due to SCJ and ACJ connection; clavicular protraction brings scapula into thorax

39
Q

What are the CPP and OPP of each of the shoulder girdle joints ?

A

GHJ:
OPP= 23-55 degrees of scaption; CPP=abduction and ER

ACJ:
OPP= arm resting by side; CPP: arm abducted 90 degrees

SCJ:
OPP= arm resting by side ; CPP: max shoulder elevation

40
