Q

Post trauma/injury or post surgery - tissue repair phase 2:

A
  • : proliferation: peaks 3 weeks tapers 3-6 weeks
  • Controlled mobility: tissue healing, protocol may restrict range
  • Want controlled mobility here while the tissue is being laid down to make it more extensible and align the fibers

Q

Pathogenesis/clinical manifestations of adhesive capsulitis

A
  • Contracture of capsule and ligaments
  • Inflammatory synovitis → capsule fibrosis
  • Capsule fibrosis notes upon arthroscopy (there are certain areas where these are generally located) -Coracohumeral ligament, Capsular ligament, Axillary pouch
  • Shoulder contracture

- signs and symptoms

A
  • 2.5-9 months
  • Inflammatory synovitis
  • Pain at rest
  • ROM progressively decreasing

Q

Frozen phase of adhesive capsultits
- time Frame
- signs and symptoms

A
  • 4-12 months:
  • Fibrosis adhesions in joint capsule (capsular fibrosis)
  • Decreased ROM capsule pattern (ER>ABD>IR)
  • Pain at end ranges
  • See RC, deltoid atrophy due to decrease use
  • No inflammation
  • Moderate irritability classification
21
Q

Thawing phase of adhesive capsulitis

A
  • 2-24 months
  • No inflammatory synovitis
  • ROM improving: no/minimal pain except at end ranges
  • Returning to function
  • Low irritability classification
22
Q

What is the irritability classifications (adhesive capsulitis

A
  • high irritability
  • moderate irritability
  • low irritability
23
Q

High irritability classification

A
  • Pain: 7 or higher + night and resting pain
  • Disability score: high DASH
  • End range pain: prior to reaching end range
  • AROM < PROM secondary to pain (they do not want to initiate pain)
24
Q

Moderate irritability classification

A
  • Pain: 4-6 + intermittent night and rest pain
  • Diability score: moderate DASH score
  • Pain at end range ROM
  • AROM ~ PROM
25
Q

Low irritability classification

A
  • Pain 3 or less + no night or resting pain
  • Disability score: low DASH
  • Minimal pain with end ROM or over pressure
  • AROM = PROM
26
Q

GH joint play

A
  • GH lateral distraction that can turn into treatment
  • Looks at extensibility of capsule
27
Q

Arthrokinematics glides

A
  • can also turn into treatment - mobs
28
Q

Inferior glide is needed for what movements

A
  • elevation, abduction, posterior elevation, flexion
29
Q

Anterior glide is needed for what movements

A
  • ER, H abd, extension
30
Q

Posterior glide needed for what motions

A
  • IR, flexion, Hadduction
31
Q

SC joint in
- vertical plane
- transverse place

A
  • Vertical plan: convex on concave
  • Transverse plan: concave on convex
32
Q

Joint play assessment of SC joint

A
  • Elevation: inferior glide of clavicular head
  • Retraction: posterior glide of clavicular head
  • Protraction: anterior glide of clavicular head
  • Closed pack: full abduction with full ER
33
Q

SC joint injury

A
  • Rare usually fracture clavicle
  • Exam: ROM, joint play, strength, palation
34
Q

medical Intervention for SC joint injury

A
  • Partial tearing: rest, immobilization for healing, f/b ROM, exercise
  • Complete tearing: instability
  • Surgery, prevent clavicle posterior migration
35
Q

AC joint:
supporting ligaments

A
  • acromioclavicular ligament
  • Coracoclavicular ligament (conoid/trapezoid)
36
Q

Joint play of AC joint

A
  • Assess and can turn into treatment
  • 2 glides of clavicle on acromion (follow joint plane)
  • posterior/superior glide
  • anterior /inferior glide
37
Q

Separated shoulder

What is it and how is it classifyed?

A
  • Step off deformity
  • Grade 1: acromioclavicular ligament sprain (stretched)
  • Grade 2: acromioclavicular ligament torn but coracoclavicular ligament sprained
  • Grade 3: acromioclavicular ligament torn and coracoclavicular ligament torn
38
Q

AC joint injury presentation

A
  • Protect arm held IR and adducted
  • AC, SC shrug shoulders, protract, retract pain
  • ACJ ROM = painful arc 140 and above
  • Increase AC joint play
  • Palpation AC joint - pain, crepitus, swelling
  • Decrease strength of shoulder - muscle inhibition
39
Q

Special test for AC joint injury

A
  • +step off deformity
    +cross over test
    + AC shear test
40
Q

Fractured clavicle

A
  • Can cause brachial plexus injury or injury to subclavian artery and or vein
  • Immobilize to heal, surgery not common
  • Malalignment can compress brachial plexus
  • Can get swelling down into the UE → move wrist, forearm and shoulder to decrease some swelling and decrease ROM losses
41
Q

Examination of shoulder complex for a clavicle fracture

A
  • As healing allows
  • Assess ROM and mobility of AC, SC, GH joint
  • Assess strength of shoulder complex
  • Note an possible brachial plexus Signs and symptoms
42
Q

Clavicle fracture once healed interventions

A
  • Shoulder complex mobility
  • ROM - PROM → AAROM → AROM
  • AC, SC, GH joint mobs as needed
43
Q

What to restore for a clavicle fracture

A
  • Strength of shoulder complex
  • Submax, multiangle isometrics → AROM, Isotonic
44
Q

Treatment for high irritability classification for shoulder hypomobility
- modalities
- activity modification
- ROM
- Manual tech
- strength
- function
- other

A
  • Modalities: yes
  • Activity modification: yes (don’t want to create pain)
  • ROM, stretch: 5 seconds, pain free, PROM/AAROM
  • Manual tech: low grade (1 or 2)
