  2. Objectives • Review anatomy of the shoulder complex • Review motions of the shoulder complex • Describe the functional biomechanical evaluation of the shoulder • Understand and be able to perform an evaluation of shoulder using various functional and special tests • Review some common shoulder problems

  3. Introduction • Shoulder injury is very common in the active patient population. • It is a complex joint and presents unique challenges to diagnosis and subsequent treatment.

  4. Introduction • Shoulder Pain is the third most common MS complaint in primary care offices • Second to knee pain for referrals to ortho/sports medicine physicians • Incidence 25/1000 patients • Peak incidence in 50-70 year olds • 8-13% of athletic injuries involve the shoulder

  5. Introduction • The shoulder complex is a loosely constructed highly mobile complex of bones, muscles and ligaments. • It is designed for increased mobility to the upper extremity with only sufficient stability to provide a proper foundation for muscular function which is vital for the performance of sports or activities of daily living (ADL)

  6. Introduction • Effective diagnosis and treatment of the shoulder requires a mastering of the relationship of structure and function of this complicated joint.

  7. Anatomy • It is composed of 3 joints (sternoclavicular, acromioclavicular and glenohumeral) and one articulation (scapulothoracic). • All four work together in a synchronous rhythm for full range dynamic motion.

  8. Anatomy…SC Joint • The sternoclavicular joint (SCJ) enables the humerus to achieve 180 degrees of Abduction. • It is a saddle shaped joint made up of the medial end of the clavicle, the manubrium sternum and the cartilage of the 1st rib. • There is an articular disc separating the surfaces which adds strength to the joint.

  9. SC Joint

  10. Anatomy…AC Joint • A plane synovial joint that augments the range of motion (ROM) in the humerus. • It is made up of the acromiom process of the scapula and the lateral edge of the clavicle.

  11. Anatomy…AC Joint • It is surrounded by a fibrous capsule and an articular disc separates the surfaces. • Primary strength is supplied by the acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments • trapezoid ligament • conoid ligaments

  12. AC Joint

  13. AC Joint • Type I 17% • Type II 43% • Type III 40% • Type III found in up to 80% of RC tears • Compared with 3% in Type I

  14. AC Joint/Subacromial Articulation • Impingement • Greater tubercle • Acromion • Coracoacromial ligaments • Supraspinatus tendon • Between 48-72% of shoulder pain in PCP office is subacromial impingement

  15. Anatomy…GH Joint • A multi-axial ball and socket joint surrounded by a capsule. • Most of the support is provided by the rotator cuff muscles.

  16. Anatomy of GH Joint • The glenoid labrum is a ring of fibrocartilage that surrounds and deepens the glenoid fossa which increases the available contact area by approximately 70%.

  17. Functional Anatomy…GH Joint • The relaxed position of the humerus has it placed in the upper portion of the glenoid cavity. • Contraction of the rotator cuff muscles pulls the humerus down into the lower/wider portion of the glenoid cavity. • Without the “dropping down”, full Abduction is impossible.

  18. GH Joint • Static stabilizers • Labrum • Capsule • Adhesion-cohesion • Intra-articular pressure • Dynamic stabilizers • RC muscles • Deltoid • Long head of biceps • Scapulothoracic muscles • Proprioceptive feedback

  19. GH Joint…Static Restraints • Labrum • Ring of fibrocartilage • Deepens the glenoid fossa • Increases contact area ~70% • Ligaments • Superior Glenohumeral • Middle Glenohumeral • Inferior Glenohumeral (important when shoulder is abducted and externally rotated)

  20. The Scapulothoracic Articulation • The scapula serves as a mobile platform from which the upper limb operates. • It is made up of the body of the scapula and the muscles covering the posterior chest wall.

  21. The Scapulothoracic Articulation • The GHJ moves 120 degrees as the scapula swings about 60 degrees around the chest wall in a smooth 2:1 ratio.

  22. The Scapulothoracic Articulation • The articulation allows the scapula to glide medially, laterally, superiorly and inferiorly and rotate over the posterolateral chest cage. • Asymmetry of position usually indicates asymmetry of motion.

  23. The Scapulothoracic Articulation • In any given arm position, the scapula aligns itself to allow the glenoid cavity to be in the best position to receive the head of the humerus. • The apparent simple motion of the scapula is neurologically complex due to relatively little “direct” muscle action.

  24. Scapulothoracic Articulation

  25. Extrinsic Muscles of the Shoulder Region • Deltoid • Anterior (Flex/IR) • Mid-portion (ABd) • Posterior (Ext/ER) • Pectoralis Major (ADd/flex/IR) • Biceps (Flex) • Triceps (Ext) • Teres Major (ADd/IR) • Latissimus dorsi (Ext/ADd/IR)

  26. Intrinsic Muscles of the Shoulder Region • Rotator Cuff • Supraspinatus (ABd) • Infraspinatus (ER) • Teres Minor (ER) • Subscapularis (IR)

  27. Muscles of the Scapulothoracic Articulation“Scapular Stabilizers” • Trapezius • Superior (Elev) • Middle (Retract) • Inferior (Depress) • Levator Scapulae (Elev) • Pectoralis Minor (Depress) • Rhomboids (Retract) • Serratus anterior (Protract)

  28. Shoulder Stability • The shoulder consists of passive and dynamic stabilizers.

  29. Static Shoulder Stability • The static stabilizers are: • Glenoid • glenoid labrum • capsule • ligaments • (superior glenohumeral, middle glenohumeral and inferior glenohumeral), • joint cohesion • Intra-articular negative pressure.

  30. Dynamic Shoulder Stability • The dynamic stabilizers are the rotator cuff muscles along with the long head of the biceps. • The scapulothoracic stabilizers are the rhomboids, trapezius, serratus anterior, and the pectoralis minor.

  31. Ultimately Our Goal is Joint Congruence • Maintenance of the articular surfaces’ apposition is the keystone to avoiding injury • Altered engrams (motor activation patterns) increases loads on tissues, resulting in a singular macrotrauma or repetitive microtraumas • More than a tight capsule and strong rotator cuff…

  32. Shoulder ExaminationHISTORY “Listen to the patient long enough and they will tell you what is wrong with them” • Where/when/what/how/why • Specific mechanism of injury (MOI) (if any?) • Chronic vs. acute • What makes symptoms better or worse • Instability/weakness • Pain (0/10) • Crepitation • Radicular symptoms (pain radiation)

  33. Shoulder ExaminationHISTORY • Pain in shoulder coming from rotator cuff or bursa radiates to lateral deltoid – NOT past elbow! • Pain that wakes on rolling over in bed suggests bursitis • Pain that wakes from sleep suggests rotator cuff tear • 88% sensitive, 20% specific

  34. Shoulder Exam • Physical exam should be done in the same manner each time so that nothing is forgotten: • Inspection • Palpation • ROM • Active and Passive • Strength and Neurologic Testing • Regional Osteopathic Structural Examination • Special Testing

  35. Shoulder Pain Diagram

  36. Shoulder Exam • Inspect • Expose the area • Step offs • Deformities • Ecchymosis • Asymmetry

  37. ROM • Forward flexion 1800 • Extension 450 • ABduction 1800 • ADduction 450 • IR 550 • ER 40-450

  38. A/PROM tests • Apley “scratch” test: • ER and aBduction (C7) • IR and aDduction (T7) • Asymmetry can be indicative of: • limited GH adduction • internal/external rotation • scapular movement • Painful arc of motion • 33% sensitive • 81% specific

  39. Scapular Dyskinesis • Functional base for shoulder • Alterations in the resting position affects timing and magnitude of: • Acromial upward rotation • Excessive movement of the glenoid • Decrease maximal RC activation • Often associated with other upper extremity disorders

  40. Range of Motion • Asymmetry is the Key! • Master the feel of normal/abnormal endpoints and restrictions of motion. • Extra-articular blockage: rubbery feel and gives slightly under pressure • Intra-articular blockage: inflexible and ROM ends abruptly

  41. Physical Exam • Neurologic exam • Muscle & tendon pain worse with: • Passive stretch • Active contraction in a neutral position • Palpation • Ligaments/capsule pain worse with: • Passive & active loading, usually only at the end ROM • Palpation

  42. Reflex and Sensory Testing

  43. Spurling’s Test • Puts pressure on posterolateral complex (articular pillars, facets, & neural foramina • Could be a ligament, muscle/tendon, disc, osteoarthritis, nerve root inflammation (virus, etc.), or tumor

  44. Lhermitte’s Sign/Test • the “Barber Chair” phenomenon • Trauma to cervical spinal cord • Space occupying lesion (tumor, disc) • Multiple sclerosis • Cervical spondylosis • Vitamin B12 deficiency

  45. Muscle Testing • Range of “normal” muscle strength. • When testing for strength, keep in mind that you are also testing for neurological function.

  46. Special Testing • Special testing can be done to add information for the diagnosis of the problem. • Structured to uncover a specific type of pathology or dysfunction. • Shoulder special testing includes but not limited to the following….

  48. Biceps TendonitisYergason’s Test • Patient flexes elbow to 900 • Physician grasps the elbow with one hand and the wrist with the other • The examiner resists as patient attempts to supinate and flex the elbow • The test is positive if pain is elicited as the biceps tendon or bicipital groove

  49. Biceps TendonitisSpeed’s Test • Patient fully extends the elbow, flexes the shoulder and supinates the forearm • Physician resists further flexion • The test is positive when there is tenderness in the bicipital groove

  50. Supraspinatus Testing • Position the arms in a position of 900 ABduction and 300 forward flexion with the thumbs pointing down • Apply a downward force as the patient resists • The test is positive with weakness or pain • 89% sensitive; 68% specific • “Full Can Test” • Less impingement • Minimized infraspinatus • 86% sensitive; 74% specific
