The goal for the Rotator Cuff repair result are the results of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair by to analyze the results to make sure whether there…

is what is known as impingement syndrome (AAOS, 2011). This is where the supraspinatus tendon becomes inflamed and painful, because of the location, between the head of the humerus and the acromion of the scapula which is compressed during abduction and adduction of the shoulder. If the impingement syndrome is not treated, usually by rest and strengthening exercises as well as massage, and there is a continuation of use, this can cause the tendon(s) to tear away from the bone (AAOS, 2011). The…

A good example of this is when an individual has a curved (type II) or hooked (type III) acromion that decreases the size of the sub-acromial space. Secondary impingement refers to hypermobility in the joint caused by translation of the humeral head. Stage I: Usually takes place in patients 25 and younger, with noted hemorrhage and edema. The pain is generally worsened when the shoulder is abducted more than 90 degrees. Stage II: Affects middle age patients (25 to 40 years old), with…

ow can ROM in the massage treatment room benefit the massage client? Massage therapy is well matched to the demands of shoulder impingement syndrome due to chronically tight shoulder musculature. Compression of the shoulder girdle can lead to pain, loss of range of motion, and the inability to perform activities of daily living. The shoulder joint cannot move freely through a normal range of motion because the structures of the joint have been pulled to closely together. When the rotator…

with shoulder motion.  Acromioclavicular joint : The acromioclavicular joint is a plane gliding joint that also possesses a disc. Its ligaments include the capsule, acromioclavicular ligament, and coracoclavicular ligament. (3)  The scapulothoracic articulation : The Scapulothoracic articulation is not a true anatomic joint as it has none of the usual joint characteristics (union by fibrous, cartilaginous, or synovial tissues). It is an articulation of the scapula with…

1. The major surface muscles include the following: Trapezius, Deltoids, latissimus dorsi, Pectoralis major, Biceps, Triceps, Rectus femoris, bicep femoris, semitendinosus, Gluteus muscles, abdominals, Lateral Gastrocnemius, serratus dorsi, external oblique, and soleus. Trapezius- Origin: Upper: Base of skull, Occipital protuberance and posterior ligaments of neck. Middle: spinous process of 7C and T1-T3 Lower: Spinous process of T4-T12 Insertion: Upper: Posterior aspect of the lateral…

joint). The AC joint connects the outer tip of the collarbone (clavicle) to the top of the shoulder blade (acromion). Two strong cords of tissue (acromioclavicular ligament and coracoclavicular ligament) stretch across the AC joint to keep it in place. An AC joint separation happens when one or both ligaments stretch or tear, causing the joint to separate. You may need surgery to repair acromioclavicular separation if your condition is severe, or if other treatment methods have not helped you.…

Brachialis muscle was seen uniformly to be consisting of 2 heads, superficial and deep. The superficial head forming the main bulk of the muscle originated from the anteromedial and anterolateral surface of the middle third of humerus ,embracing the deltoid insertion. In addition it also had attachement to the adjoining part of the lateral intermuscular septum. Its fibers ran vertically and terminated in a thick tendon to be inserted onto the ulnar tuberosity. Fibers of…

Functional reach is defined as the distance between arm’s length and maximal forward reach while maintaining a fixed base of support in standing.(Duncan et al, 1990) The Functional Reach Test was designed to assess standing balance in ambulatory patients; however, the Modified Functional Reach Test (mFRT) was designed to assess sitting balance in individuals who are unable to stand, specifically individuals with spinal cord injury. mFRT assesses an individual’s ability to reach forward and…

Nine muscles insert on and move the humerus. First, the pectoralis major originates on the medial half of the clavicle, one side of the sternum, on the costal cartilage (1-7) and the aponeurosis of the external oblique. It inserts on lateral lip of the intertubercular groove of the humerus. The pectorals major flexes, medially rotates and adducts the humerus. Second, the deltoid originates from the lateral half part of the clavicle (anterior fibers), the acromion of the scapula (lateral fibers)…
