Q

type 2 –> AC & coracoclavicular ligs

A

AC lig is disrupted

coracoclavicular lig is sprained

21
Q

appearance of AC joint –> type 2

A

wider

may have slight vertical separation compared to uninjured side

22
Q

@ AC joint –> type 2

A

moderate to severe pain

23
Q

@ coracoclavicular space –> type 2

A

tenderness

24
Q

PROM –> type 2

A

all painful at ends of ranges

most in HADD

25
Q

intervention –> type 2

A

ice

pain free AROM/PROM

progressive strengthening in pain free ranges

26
Q

type 3 –> AC lig

A

AC ligament disrupted

27
Q

AC joint –> type 3

A

dislocated

distal clavicle displaced superior to acromion

28
Q

coracoclavicular interspace –> type 3

A

25-100% greater than uninjured side

29
Q

post trauma UE position –> type 3

A

adducted

30
Q

appearance –> type 3

A

visible gap b/w acromion and clavicle

31
Q

ROM –> type 3

A

PROM painless if done carefully

AROM all painful

32
Q

piano key phenomenon –> type 3

A

push down inferior on clavicle

it springs back

33
Q

AC lig –> type 4

A

disrupted

34
Q

AC joint –> type 4

A

dislocated

displaced posteriorly

35
Q

coracoclavicular ligs –> type 4

A

completely disrupted

36
Q

intervention –> type 4-6

A

surgery indicated

37
Q

AC joint –> type 5

A

like type 3

distal clavicle is displaced superior to acromion

but w/ distal clavicle displaced severely upward

38
Q

AC and coracoclavicular ligs –> type 5

A

disrupted

39
Q

AC dislocates … –> type 5

A

w/ 100-300% greater distance b/w clavicle and scap compared to uninjured side

40
Q

AC and coracoclavicular ligs –> type 6

A

disrupted

41
Q

AC joint –> type 6

A

dislocated

clavicle displaced inferiorly

42
Q

clavicle displaced inferiorly –> type 6

A

coracoclavicular interspace reversed w/ clavicle inferior to acromion

43
Q

what may be present –> type 6

A

accompanying brachial plexus lesion

44
Q

appearance –> type 6

A

top of shoulder is flat compared to uninjured side

45
Q

types 1,2,3,5

A

superior displacement of clavicle w/ respect to acromion

differ in severity of injury and amount of displacement

46
Q

types 1 and 2

A

MOI usually FOOSH or blow to lateral shoulder

47
Q

types 3 and 4

A

usually involve dislocation and distal clavicle fx

coracoclavicular lig disrupted

48
Q

type 4

A

posterior clavicle displacement

49
Q

type 6

A

inferior displacement of the clavicle
