Q

what lesion is due to FOOSH, sudden traction forces, and instability?

A

SLAP lesion

139
Q

what does FOOSH stand for?

A

fall on an outstretched hand

140
Q

what is the MOI of SLAP lesions?

A

FOOSH (31%)

traction-dislocation (19%)

instability

tackle

throwing

lifting (16%)

141
Q

what are the special tests for SLAP lesions?

A

(+) O’Brien’s
(+) Crank
(+) Biceps load

142
Q

what is an O’Brien test?

A

resist shoulder flexion and IR, then flex and ER

(+)=pain and weakness more with IR than ER

143
Q

what is the pain associated with SLAP lesions?

A

non-specific pain

clicking and grinding sometimes

144
Q

is a SLAP lesion a dx of exclusion?

A

not necessarily

145
Q

what is the crank test?

A

pt is seated and shoulder is at 160 deg flexion

add compression with IR and ER

pain with clicking/crunching

146
Q

what is the biceps load test?

A

lay pt in supine w/shoulder in ER and abduction

resist elbow flexion and forearm supination at the same time

(+)=pain with resistance

can also pronate them and extend the elbow to stretch the biceps instead of contracting

147
Q

what does it mean to cluster test?

A

to do several tests together to have a higher deg of confidence that a condition may be present

148
Q

what is the dx and intervention for SLAP lesion?

A

similar to RC and instability

special tests for the labrum

address the underlying instability

labral repair has more favorable outcomes than debridement

address secondary impairments

149
Q

what is the systemic etiology of adhesive capsulitis?

A

diabetes

hypothyroidism

hyperthyroidism

hypoadrenalism

150
Q

what is the extrinsic etiology of adhesive capsulitis?

A

cardiopulmonary disease

cervical disc disease

CVA (from not as much shoulder movement)

humeral fx

Parkinsonism

151
Q

what is the etiology of adhesive capsulitis?

A

RC tendinitis

RC tears

biceps tendinitis

calcific tendinitis

AC arthritis

152
Q

what is the hx adhesive capsulitis?

A

insidious

minor injury

153
Q

what is the CC of adhesive capsulitis?

A

pain

stiffness

loss of ROM

154
Q

what is the MOI of adhesive capsulitis?

A

insidious

minor injury

155
Q

what are the comorbidities of adhesive capsulitis?

A

women over 40

post menopause

DM

hypo/hyperthyroidism

hypoadrenalism

hx of CVA

156
Q

what is the general etiology of adhesive capsulitis?

A

capsule goes through inflammatory process for some reason and can’t lift the arm anymore

cascade of inflammation w/subsequent fibrosis

157
Q

what is primary adhesive capsulitis?

A

idiopathic and progressive

gradual loss of ER

progressive loss of fxn

inflammation and pain w/muscle guarding

compensatory scap movement (kicks in a lot earlier)

resolution of pain w/stiff shoulder

158
Q

what is secondary adhesive capsulitis?

A

substantial restriction of both AROM/PROM that occur in the absence of pathology

pain>ROM loss (self-limiting w/recovery in 6-12 months)

pain=ROM loss (capsular pattern and may require injection)

159
Q

what are the 3 phases adhesive capsulitis?

A

freezing, frozen, thawing

160
Q

in the capsular pattern with adhesive capsulitis, what is the order or loss of ER, abd, IR

A

ER>abd>IR

161
Q

what are the risk factors for adhesive capsulitis?

A

female

> 40 y/o

trauma

DM

prolonged immobilization

thyroid disease

stroke

MI

psychosocial overlay

autoimmune disease

post-menopausal

162
Q

what is stage 1 adhesive capsulitis?

A

mild impingement-like symptoms

<3 months

empty>capsular end feel

development of capsular pattern (ER>abd>IR)

163
Q

what is stage 2 adhesive capsulitis?

A

TTP over anterior shoulder w/radiation into deltoid insertion

improved pain but no change in ROM post injection

decreased ROM in all planes

loss of capsular volume

164
Q

what is stage 3 adhesive capsulitis?

A

9-14 mo

severe pain stage w/resolution into extreme stiffness

poor SH rhythm w/UT dominance

decreased inferior GH glide

165
Q

what is stage 4 adhesive capsulitis?

A

“thawing stage”

some return of motion

capsular end feel and pattern

radiographs reveale disuse osteopenia, MRI shows increased perfusion to synovium

166
Q

what is the goal of intervention with adhesive capsulitis?

A

controlled stress to restricted tissues through mobilization and stretching

167
Q

when will self-limiting adhesive capsulitis return to full mobility with intervention?

A

18 months-3 years (at 7 years, 30% decreased mobility, 50% pain and stiffness)

168
Q

t/f: success of corticosteroid injections for adhesive capsulitis depends on duration of symptoms

A

true

169
Q

what is the point of corticosteroid injections for adhesive capsulitis?

A

to limit synovitis and subsequent fibrosis

170
Q

when is MUA used in adhesive capsulitis?

A

when conservative measures fail except for osteopenia, recent RCT repair, fx, neurologic injury, and instability

171
Q

what is MUA and MUGA?

A

manipulation under anesthesia

manipulation under general anesthesia

used to break up adhesions
