3 movements the scapula has to perform to clear the acromion are
posterior tilt, internal rotation, upward rotation
To complete all functional activities how many degrees of humeral flexion does a person need?
0-108 degrees
what are The scapula moves through three (3) axes of rotation to achieve full shoulder elevation and their amount of rotation
Upward and downward rotation ( 60 degrees) internal and external rotation ( approx 30 degrees), anterior and posterior rotation ( 8 degrees)
T/F- Full shoulder mobility requires thoracic extension of 10-15°.
true
T/F The resting position of the scapula is slight downward rotation (3 °)
F- slightly upward position (3 degrees)
conditions of the ST joint
fractures, snapping scapula, osteochondroma, nerve palsies, scapular dyskinesis
conditions of AC joint
dislocation, clavicle #, acromion #, osteolysis, OA
conditions of SC joint
sternal #, clavicle #, dislocation
scapula # MOI
high energy tramuma
associated w other injuries
very uncommon
snapping scapula syndrome causes
audible sound during elevation (sign)
scapular dyskinesis
GHJ instability
infra-serrates bursitis
osteochondroma
bony spurs
neural paralysis
forced couple dysfunction
what is scapular dyskinesis
inability to maintain resting position , loss of ability to control - upward and external rotation & retraction
scapular dyskinesis results in
alterations of shoulder girdle mechanics and passive tissue length/ tension
nerves entrapment/ injuries around the shoulder diagnosed by what

C5,6,7
long thoracic nerve palsy pathology
paralysis, serrates anterior
long thoracic nerve palsy MOI
