GUARANTEED ACCURATE ANSWERS
(UPDATED)
The shoulder girdle is comprised of which four joints? - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ Sternoclavicular (S/C)
Acromioclavicular (A/C)
Glenohumeral (G/H)
Scapulothoracic Articulation (S/T)
Sternoclavicular joint is what kind of joint - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ Complex saddle joint
Increases the congruity of the highly irregular joint surfaces -
ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Sternoclavicular joint articular disc
Ligaments of the sternoclavicular joint - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔
SC ligament, interclavicular, Costoclavicular
Achieved by placing the arm down at the side of the body - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ Loose packed position of the SC joint
,Achieved through maximum shoulder elevation, when the GH joint
exceeds greater than 110° of flexion or abduction. The clavicle must
upwardly rotate to achieve this. - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Closed
packed position of the SC joint
Conditions of the SC joint - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Osteoarthritis,
sprain, dislocation, all are not that common, clavicular fracture is most
likely
With ankylosis of a SC joint shoulder elevation is severely limited to
approximately 19° - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Osteoarthritis
Can be very serious injury may require open reduction surgery -
ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Posterior dislocation of SC joint
Most common dislocation, usually occurs due to direct trauma to the
side of the shoulder, such as an impact or a fall, typically benign -
ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Anterior dislocation with superior medial
displacement of SC joint
Acromioclavicular joint is what kind of joint? - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ Planer joint with incongruent surfaces
High degree of variability between individuals and within individuals -
ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Articular disc of the AC joint
, Ligaments of the AC joint - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔
Coracoclavicular ligament comprised of coronoid and trapezoid
ligaments, and AC ligament
Achieved by bringing the GH joint into 90° of abduction - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ AC joint closed packed position
This position is debatable - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Loose packed
position of the AC joint
Conditions of the AC joint - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔
Osteoarthritis, osteolysis, AC joint dislocation or shoulder separation
Resorption of the subchondral bone of the distal clavicle, can be due to
trauma or repetitive stress - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Osteolysis
Common mechanism of injury is direct impact to the lateral aspect of
shoulder or a fall on outstretched hand, graded on damage to ligaments
and displacement of clavicle, six types of grades of separation, grades 4
to 6 are variations of grade 3 - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ AC joint
dislocation or shoulder separation
One of the most mobile joints - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔
Glenohumeral
