Q

what is particular about the scapulothoracic joint?

A

its not a true joint, it has no boney articulation between the scapula and thoracic cage, movement produced is that of the scapula gliding on the thoracic cage

25
what is the normal end feel in the shoulder during Flexion, extension, ABD, IR/ER
capsular
26
what muscles make up the rotator cuff? what is their main function?
supraspinatus infraspinatus teres minor subscapularis
27
what is the main function of the rotator cuff muscles? how is it accomplished?
serve as dynamic stabilizers to the GH joint by compressing the head of the humerus into the glenoid fossa creates an inferior translator pull to offset the superior pull of the deltoid during abd (infra, teres and sub) creates a superior force against gravity with ABD (supraspinatus)
28
would the GH joint be able to account for the full ROM of the shoulder by itself?
no, its the coordinated function of the shoulder complex that allows it to achieve the greatest ROM,
29
what helps provide the remaining ROM to the GH joint?
the ST joint via the AC and SC joints during upwards rotation of the scapular induced by the trapezius and serratus anterior
30
what is the ST rhythm?
the concomitant GH and ST motion
31
summerize in 3 points the main effect of the combined Scapulohumeral motion
1. the motion is distributed between GH and ST joints 2. it maintains the glenoid fossa in an optimal position to recieve the head of the humerus, increasing joint congruency while decreasing shear forces 3. permits musscles acting on the humerus to maintain good length-tension relation while minimizing of preventing active insufficency of GH muscles
32
what are some orthopedics capsular patterns?
arthritis | frozen shoulder
33
what are some orthopedics non-capsular patterns?
``` impingement bursitis tendinitis/muscle labrum AC OR SC pathology nerve dislocation/subluxation fracture of humerus or clavicle ligament sprains hyper/hypomobility scapulothoracic dysfunction ```
34
what are some common shoulder conditions that may occur post stroke?
subluxation spasticity frozen shoulder impringement
35
why is the elbow complex designed to serve?
serve the hand
36
what is the main function of the elbow complex?
provide mobility of the hand in space by shortening/lengthening the UE
37
what bones make up the elbow complex?
humerus radius ulna
38
what are the total joints that make up the elbow complex? where are they located?
- humeroulnar (elbow) - humeroradial (elbow) - proximal radioulnar joint (wrist) - distal radioulnar joint (elbow)
39
whta is the funtion of the humeroulnar and humeroradial joint?
allows for flexion and extension
40
what links the proximal and distal radioulnar joint?

42
how many muscles cross the elbow complex? where do they act on?
15 muscles | some acti on the shoulder other on the wrist
43
what is the effect of having muscles linking the shoulder, elbow and wrist together?
allows to enhance the function o the hand

how many muscles are associated with the radioulnar joint? what is their function
supination (2): supinator, biceps brachi | pronation (2): pronator teres, pronator quadratus
46
what is the normal AROM for flexion of the elbow complex? what happens in not supinated
