SHOULDER UNIT Chapter 18 • Objectives:anatomy • Ligaments • Muscles • Shoulder mechanics • Injuries • Treatments • Rehabilitation
Vocabulary • Brachial plexus • Impingement • Labrum • Thoracic outlet compression syndrome • Trigger point • Axilla • Shoulder pointer • Shoulder articulations
ANATOMY • Characteristic- very moveable joint, shallow joint, unstable, ball and socket • Bones of the shoulder: scapula, humerus, clavicle • spine of scapula • Acromion process tip of shoulder • Coracoid process • Supraspinatus fossa • Infraspinatus fossa • Subscapularis fossa • Glenoid fossa • Medial border of scapula • Lateral border of scapula • Inferior/superior angle of scapula
Anatomy cont. • Bones cont. • Humerus: Proximal Head of the humerus • Bicipital groove • Clavicle: S shape and fracture middle 1/3 most common
Joints/Ligaments • Joints of the shoulder • 1 Acromioclavicular=AC • Attaches acromion process to the distal end of clavicle • 2 Coracoclavicular=CC • Attaches the coracoid process to dstal end of clavicle • 3 Glenohumeral=GH • Attaches the rim of the glenoid fossa to the proximal end of the humerus • 4 Sternoclavicular=SC • Attaches the sternum to the proximal end of the clavicle
Muscles • Rotator cuff SITS • Attachmentaction • Supraspinatus- supraspinatus fossa, goes underneath acromion process, then to lateral head of humerus • Initiates abduction, sinks head of the humerus into glenoid fossa • Infraspinatus- infraspinatus fossa to the posterior lateral head of humerus • External rotation and adduction • Teres minor- lateral border of scapula to posterior head of humerus • External rotation and adduction • Subscapularis- subscapularis fossa to the anterior surface head of humerus • Internal rotation and adduction • Teres major- lateral border of scapula to anterior head of humerus • Internal rotation and adduction
Muscles cont. • Deltoid-Anterior, middle (median), posterior • Abduction • Pectoralis maj/min.- attaches to chest wall and to anterior surface of humerus • horizontal flexion and internal rotation • Trapezius-shrug shoulders/abduction • Latissimus Dorsi- wings, adduction • Rhomboid maj/min-scapular retraction • Serratus anterior- sawtooth looks likes ribs, pushup motion • Levator Scapula- elevates scapula • Triceps- elbow extension • Biceps-elbow flexion
Rotator Cuff: SITS Subscapularis LH biceps SH Biceps
Shoulder Mechanics • Cocking phase • Shoulder abduction, flexion, and external rotation • Stretched- pectoralis, ant. Deltoid, biceps, subscapularis, teres major • Acceleration phase • Pectoralis, ant. Deltoid, biceps, subscapularis, teres major • Internal rotation • Follow through phase • Humerus adducts, internal rotation • lastissimus dorsi, rotator cuff, pectoralis major • What muscles in this phase are commonly injured? • External rotators-teres minor,infraspinatus
Injuries to the shoulder • Fracture to the clavicle:middle 1/3 most common area injured. • Mechanism= fall on tip of shoulder • Hold their head to the injured side with arm held up
Injuries to the shoulder • Dislocations:Anterior glenohumeral • Most common- head of the humerus slides in front of the coracoid process. Tearing of the joint capsule. • Most unstable position= abduction/ext. rotation • posterior glenohumeral uncommon • mechanism of injury: arms in front(flexion), direct blow to hands.
Injuries Cont.. • Acromioclavicular or AC sprain/separation. • Grade 1- minimal deformity. • Grade 2- slight deformity. • Grade 3- huge deformity. • Mechanism of injury. • Falling on an outstretched arm or falling on the tip of your shoulder. • Functional test for AC injury. • Touch the opposite shoulder-pain over AC= positive findings. • Drop arm test. • .
Injuries Cont.. • Contusion of the shoulder. • Shoulder pointer- AC and deltoid. Can lead to myositis ossificans. • Strains to the shoulder:Grades 1,2,3 • causes of strains: overuse, improper mechanics, lack of flexibility, going past the normal ROM, lack of strength, unexpected acceleration/deceleration, improper warm-up, poor conditioning
Injuries • Bursitis/tendonitis • Bicipital tendonitis, supraspinatus • Subacromion, subcoracoid- signs/symptoms= inflammation, pain, burning, redness • Impingement : narrowing of the subacromion space where the supraspinatus passes under the acromion process. S/S= pain and aching • Tests: empty can- thumb up/thumb down • overhead opposite arm.
Treatment of common injuries to the shoulder • Dislocations • separations/sprains • Fractures • Chronic injuries • Brachial plexus
Special Tests • Gleno humeral Instability • Load and shift • Move the head of the humerus anterior/posterior • Anterior /Posterior drawer test • Move the humerus anterior while laying down • Sulcus test • Pull down on the elbow and look for a depression • Apprehension Test (Crank test) • Shoulder dislocation • Arm is 90 degrees abducted and externally rotated. Look for apprehension or pain
Special Tests • Neer’s test pg. 391 fig. 18-7 • Impingement • Forced flexion of the shoulder towards your ear • Hawkin’s Kennedy test pg 391 fig. 18-7 • Impingement • Horizontal adduction and forced internal rotation
Special Tests • Drop arm test • Supraspinatus weakness • Abduct the arm as far as possible and slowly lower it to 90 degrees. If there is weakness they won’t be able to hold that position. • Empty Can test • Supraspinatus weakness • The athlete brings both shoulder into 90 degrees of forward flexion and 30 degrees of horizontal abduction. The thumbs are pointing downward. Force is applied to the arm in a downward motion.
Rehab • Stage 1: decrease swelling and pain, wear sling, Rest Ice, ROM while in sling for wrist and elbow, squeeze tennis ball, CV • Progression to Stage II- minimal swelling and pain • Stage 2: Increase ROM, flexibility, and start on strength, PNF • Int/ext rotation at neutral position, shoulder shrugs, circumduction (Codman exercises),finger wall walking, tubing, CV • Progression to stage III- full ROM, partial strength • Stage 3: PNF, wall push-ups, push-up on ground and with a ball, airplanes, Weight room, SAID-sport specific
