Upper Limb Stats - Final Exam Review Flashcards
What are the expected ranges of motion for the shoulder joint?
Flexion/abduction: 180° Horizontal abduction: 100° ER: 90° IR: 70° Extension: 60° Adduction/horizontal adduction: 45°
What is the capsular pattern of restriction for the GH joint?
ER > ABD > IR
What is resting position for the GH joint?
55-70° of abd + 60° of horizontal abd (measured from 90° of flexion)
What is closed pack position for the GH joint?
Maximal horizontal abduction & external rotation
What are the expected ranges of motion for the scapulothoracic joint?
Protraction/retraction/elevation/depression: 30°
Medial/lateral rotation: 50°
What is closed pack position for the scapulothoracic joint?
There is no such thing! It is not a true joint.
Explain the shapes of the articulating surfaces (convex vs. concave) for the humeroulnar joint.
humerus (trochlea): convex
ulnar (trochlear notch): concave
Explain the shapes of the articulating surfaces (convex vs. concave) for the humeroradial joint.
humerus (capitulum): convex
radius (radial head): concave
Explain the shapes of the articulating surfaces (convex vs. concave) for the proximal radioulnar joint.
ulna (radial notch): concave
radius (radial head): convex
What are the expected ROM for the elbow joint?
Flexion: 150°
Extension: 0-10°
Supination & pronation: 90° (pronation is 80-90°)
What is the capsular pattern of restriction for the elbow joint?
Humeroradial & humeroulnar: flexion > extension
Proximal radioulnar: supination = pronation
What is resting position for the humeroulnar joint?
70° of flexion
What is resting position for the humeroradial joint?
full extension & supination (as if letting your arm/forearm just go limp)
What is resting position for the proximal radioulnar joint?
35° of supination & 70° of flexion
What is closed pack position for the humeroulnar joint?
full extension
What is closed pack position for the humeroradial joint?
90° of flexion
