2
Q
4 fxnal joints of shoulder
A
SC, AC, glenohumeral, scapulothoracic
3
Q
rotator cuff muscles
A
supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, subscapularis
4
Q

6
Q
what does abnl scapular motion look like?

scapular winging, rhomboids weakness, posterior instability, rib/thoracic somatic dysfxn
7
Q
strength test for shoulder girdle and rotator cuff muscles: Speed’s test vs supraspinatus vs infraspinatus/teres minor vs subscapularis
A
find bicipital groove –> pt arm straight out and resist your downward force; if pain –> biceps tendinitis vs full/empty can –> arms out in scaption (45 degree) –> pt abducts to resist you vs pt externally rotates to resist you vs pt internally rotates to resist you
8
Q
what are the 2 static stabilizers?
A
glenoid (convex, thin socket –> ball/hinge movement) and glenoid labrum (mobile superior portion, immobile inferior portion)
9
Q

10
Q
stability tests: load & shift test vs anterior release test/apprehension test vs axillary nerve eval

11
Q
superior AC ligament vs conoid and trapezoid ligament of AC joint
