What is the purpose of the shoulder girdle?

Are there any joints that are more mobile than the shoulder (glenohumeral joint)?

What joints makes up the shoulder? 

What bones makes up the shoulder girdle?

What bones make up the shoulder joint? 



 

The purpose of the shoulder girdle and the entire upper extremity is to allow the hand to be placed in various positions to accomplish the multitude of tasks it is capable of performing.

The shoulder (glenohumeral joint) is the most mobile joint in the body. However, motion happens in other joints to allow this to happen.

 Sternoclavicular (SC) Joint

 Acromioclavicular (AC) Joint

 Glenohumeral (GH) Joint

 Scapulothoracic Joint

Shoulder Girdle: scapula and clavicle

Shoulder Joint: scapula and humerus

SCAPULOHUMERAL RHYTHM

Describes what?

What happens at the first 30 degrees of motion?

For every __ degrees of shoulder flexion/abduction scapula upwardly rotates __ degree.

Further describes movement relationship between shoulder girdle and shoulder joint (scapula and humerus)
First 30 degrees: Just shoulder joint (GH) motion
After that,
 for every 2 degrees of shoulder flexion/abduction
 scapula upwardly rotates 1 degree
This 2:1 ratio => Scapulohumeral rhythm

examples?

What are some AD?Ls which may be affected by a shoulder joint or shoulder girdle injury?

Basic tasks “concerned with daily self-care”

• Activities oriented toward taking care of one’s own body

well-being, such as bathing, toileting, dressing and eating

• Hospital
• Home Health
• SNF
• Outpatient orthopedics

1.Occupational therapist

• Hospital- special equipment
• Home Health-Focus on exactly how they do things
• SNF- Sometimes you work with people 3 hours a day, low level actives.

ADLS AND IADLS 

Older adults experience ADL and IADL disabilities through what two pathways?

Performance in ADL and IADLs indicate and predict what? 


• Older adults experience ADL and IADL disabilities through two pathways:

 1) a catastrophic event, such as a hip fracture

 2) progressive decline in the brain functions

• Successful performance in ADL and IADLs are significant health indicators that can predict mild cognitive impairments, dementia, and mortality in older adults

What angle is the reference point to describe scapular movement?

When the scapula moves  this changes the position of what fossa? 

 Triangular shaped bone

 Attaches to the trunk indirectly through

ligamentous attachment -> clavicle ->sternum

 Slightly concave and glides over the convex

rib cage posteriorly.

 In the resting position, located between the

2nd and 7th ribs with 2-3 inches between its

medial border and the spinous processes of T/S

 Spine of scapula ~T3,4

 Inferior angle is the reference point when

describing scapular movement

 When scapula moves, this changes position

of glenoid fossa
