Term

True or False?

 

The scapulocostal joint is an anatomical joint.

Definition

False

 

The scapulocostal joint is a functional articulation, not an anatomical joint.

Term
What action of the scapulocostal joint will you perform, in order to help extend range of GH joint abduction?
Definition
lateral rotation = ↑ range of GH joint abduction
Term

Complete the sentence:

 

The medial end of the clavicle, cephaland to caudal, is ......

Definition

The medial end of the clavicle is convex.

 

*convex with  top to bottom = gliding caudally/cephally = glide is opposite to roll*

Term
Where would you glide the medial end of the clavicle, to increase range of shoulder girdle depression?
Definition
Glide medial end of clavicle cranially = ↑ SH girdle depression
Term
Where would you glide the medial end of the clavicle, to increase range of shoulder girdle elevation?
Definition
Glide medial end of clavicle caudally= ↑ SH girdle elevation
Term
Where would you glide the medial end of the clavicle, to increase range of shoulder girdle protraction?
Definition
Glide medial end of clavicle ventrally = ↑ SH girdle protraction
Term
Where would you glide the medial end of the clavicle, to increase range of shoulder girdle retraction?
Definition
Glide medial end of clavicle dorsally = ↑ SH girdle retraction
Term

When gliding the medial end of the clavicle dorsally to ventrally, the glide will be at (a or b) direction of the roll.

a) same

b) opposite

Definition

When gliding the medial end of the clavicle dorsally to ventrally, the glide will be at same direction of the roll.

 

*med. end of clavicle is concave with with back to front glides*

Term

Complete the sentence:

 

To perform a ventral glide on the GH joint, the arm needs to be adducted and ...... with regard to internal/external rotation.

Definition
To perform a ventral glide on the GH joint, the arm needs to be adducted and neutral with regard to internal/external rotation.
Term

True or false?

 

The glenohumeral joint placed in a ventral glide increases horizontal adduction.

Definition

False

 

The glenohumeral joint placed in a ventral glide increases horizontal abduction.

 

* also increase GH jt ER, EX*

Term
What is a CI to look out for before performing a ventral glide of the GH jt?
Definition
CI: history of anterior GH joint dislocation
Term
Which glide will increase GH joint adduction?
Definition

Dorsal glide of GH joint

 

*moving bone is convex = slide opposite of roll*

Term
What angle will the humeroulnar joint be in resting position?
Definition

Humeroulnar joint resting position: 70o

 

 

Term

Gliding the humeroulnar joint (a or b) will help with elbow flexion.

a) forward

b) back

Definition

Gliding the humeroulnar joint forward will help with elbow flexion.

 

*distal humerus is convex; olecranon process is concave = ulna moving fwd to flexion = needs to glide fwd*

Term

Gliding the humeroulnar joint (a or b) will help with elbow extension.

 

a) forward

b) back

Definition

Gliding the humeroulnar joint back will help with elbow extension.

 

*distal humerus is convex; olecranon process is concave = ulna moving back to flexion = needs to glide back*

Term

Joint play at the (a or b) will help the increase pronation and supination.

 

a) superior radioulnar joint

b) humeroradial joint

Definition
Joint play at the superior radioulnar joint will help the increase pronation and supination.
Term

Joint play at the (a or b) will help the increase elbow extension and elbow flexion.

 

a) superior radioulnar joint

b) humeroradial joint

Definition
Joint play at the humeroradial joint will help the increase elbow extension and elbow flexion.
Term

Complete the sentence true to the radioulnar joint

 

The radius is ..... whereas the ulna is ....

Definition

 

The radius is concave whereas the ulna is convex.

 

*the radius is stabilized and the ulna is mobilized*

Term
What is the resting position of the distal radioulnar joint?
Definition
distal radioulnar joint resting position = 10o supination
Term

What will be the first structure you palpate, distal from the distal ulna?
