scapulohumeral rhythm

coordinated movement of scapula needed to facilitate movement of humerus


initial 30-90 degrees= scapula abducts and upwardly rotates 1 degree for every 2 degree of humeral elevation


>90 degree scapula and humerus 1:1

sternoclavicular joint sprain

indirect force though humerus


blow to clavicle


it is an anterior displacement


s+s: grade 2 unable to horizontally adduct


grade 3: prominent displacement of proximal clavicle

acromioclavicular joint

direct blow


fall on point of shoulder/ outstretched hand/tip of elbow


grade 1: mild stretching of AC ligament. no discomfort on abduction


grade 2: rupture of AC ligament. some displacement, unable to abduct though ROM, moderate swelling, pain w/ downward pressure on clavicle


grade 3: rupture of AC ligaments and coracoclavicular ligament. demonstrates instability, obvious swelling and bruising. visible step deformity


grade 4-6 caused by violent forces. extensive mobility due to tear of deltoid and trapezius attachement to clavicle (distal)

glenohumeral sprain

forceful abduction and external rotation


joint capsule stretches and tears (3rd degree sprain or dislocation) and humeral head moves into antero-inferior direction


s+s: active ROM-slight limitation


grade 2: swelling, ecchymosis, decreased ROM

glenohumeral instability

->anterior


blow to posterolateral shoulder. indirect force with shoulder in abduction, external rotation, extension


repetitive throwing motion or swimmin


involves middle and inferior glenohumeral ligament


->posterior


posterior forces with humerus in flexion and internal rotation

glenohumeral dislocation

->anterior


intense pain


will not abduct or internal rotate


arm held in slight abduction, stabilized against body


->posterior


will not abduct or external rotate or supinate

bankart lesion

glenoid labrum tear


damage to the anterior lip of the glenoid labrum


associated with anterior dislocation degeneration and aging

slap lesion

glenoid labrum tear


involves superior labrum and disruption of the attachement of the long head of the biceps tendon


s+s: pain, catching, weakness with arm over head

overuse injury

joint forces: compressive and shear forces


deltoid vs rotator cuff - force couple action

rotator cuff/impingement

rotator cuff (primarily supraspinatous)


partial tear, total tear


impingement syndrome


rotator cuff and subacromial bursa against the coracoacromial ligament and greater tubercle of the humerus

contributing factors of impingement syndrome

repetitive overhead movements


thickness and lack of flexibility of the supraspinatous and the biceps brachii


weak/tight posterior of cuff muscles


use of training devices


hypermobility of shoulder joints


imbalance of muscle strength


shape of acromion


s+s: deep pain


painful arc


unable to sleep on involved side



busitis

subacromial bursa


s+s sudden shoulder pain


point tenderness


pain arm


pain sleeping on involved side

bicipital tendonitis

repetitive overhead involving excessive elbow flexion and supination


tendon goes back and forth in groove


direct blow


s+s pain with passive stretch in extension with elbow extended and forearm pronated



frozen shoulder

adhesive capsulitis


mostly in older individuals


contracted and thickened capsule


inflammation with fibrosis


progressive decrease in ROM


capsular pattern

biceps tendon rupture

prolonged tendinitis makes tendon vulnerable during overhead motions


forceful flexion against resistance


s+s: intense pain


visible palpable defect in muscle belly during flexion


weakness in flexion and supination

brachial plexus

extension, external rotation, neck side flexion and or rotation


stretch or compression of lower trunk of brachial plexus = weakness, paresis, paresthesia, anesthesia, paralysis is usually transitory



thoracic outlet compression syndrome



nerves and or vessels become compressed in proximal neck and axilla


s+s (neuro) stretch or compression involving lower trunk brachial plexus. pins and needles, numbness in side or back of neck that extends. weakness in hand strength


(vascular) compression of subclavian artery and vein


vein: edema, hand stiffness, venous engorgement


artery: rapid onset of coolness, numbness of entire arm, obliterated radial pulse with adson, allen or costoclavicular

Fractures

atraumatic osteolysis of distal clavicle


due to repetitive trauma or post traumatic injury to distal clavicle of AC joint


bone resorption causes cystic changes and erosive changes


s+s: dull ache over AC joint


pain with horizontal adduction and abduction >90 degree

traumatic clavicular fracture

direct or indirect force


s+s: proximal fragment upward


distal shoulder collapse


visible and palpable deformity


pain with any motion

scapular fracture

direct force or indirect force (ex: car accident)


s+s minimal pain


localized pain and hemorrhage



epiphyseal fracture

"little league shoulder" proximal humerus. due to medial rotation and adduction


proximal growth plate doest close until 18-21 years


medial one until 25 years


s+s: acute shoulder pain with throwing hand


pain with deep palpation in axilla.

avulsion fracture

coracoid process due to forceful throwing; greater and lesser tubercles associated with dislocation


deep palpation = pain

humeral fracture

direct blow


fall on outstretched hand


s+s: inability to move arm/supinate arm


possible paralysis
