Using Neutrality To Increase Shoulder Strength SUSAN M. T. McKAY, OTR/L [email protected] GOAL Look at shoulder rehab in a different way. Strength can come from increasing flexibility and placing a joint in proper alignment. Conversely, strengthening a shoulder in improper alignment can cause injury. WHY PICK ON THE SHOULDER? . Impairs function/limits ADL’s . Pain in shoulder . Compensatory patterns can lead to back pain . Elderly rely on upper body to move/ambulate . The sooner issues are treated, the less physiological damage there is SHOULDER ANATOMY . Muscles and how they move . A basic review and more . Important to know… SHOULDER ANATOMY . Supraspinatus . Initiates and assists deltoid in abduction of arm and acts with other rotator cuff muscles. SHOULDER ANATOMY . Infraspinatus . Laterally rotate arm; helps to hold humeral head in glenoid cavity of scapula SHOULDER ANATOMY . Subscapularis . Medially rotates arm and adducts it; helps to hold humeral head in glenoid cavity of scapula SHOULDER ANATOMY . Teres Minor . Laterally rotate arm; helps to hold humeral head in glenoid cavity of scapula SHOULDER ANATOMY . Deltoid . Anterior part: flexes and medially rotates arm; Middle part: abducts arm; Posterior part: extends and laterally rotates arm SHOULDER ANATOMY . Latissimus dorsi . Extends, adducts, and medially rotates humerus; raises body toward arms during climbing SHOULDER ANATOMY . Teres Major . Adducts and medially rotates arm SHOULDER ANATOMY . Pectoralis major . Adducts and medially rotates humerus; draws scapula anteriorly and inferiorly; Acting alone: clavicular head flexes humerus and sternocostal head extends it SHOULDER ANATOMY . Pectoralis Minor . Stabilizes scapula by drawing it inferiorly and anteriorly against thoracic wall SHOULDER ANATOMY . Coracobrachialis . Helps to flex and adduct arm SHOULDER ANATOMY . Rhomboid Major and Minor . Retract scapula and rotate it to depress glenoid cavity; fix scapula to thoracic wall SHOULDER ANATOMY . Serratus Anterior . Draws scapula forward and upward; abducts scapula and rotates it; stabilizes vertebral border of scapula SHOULDER ANATOMY . Trapezius . Elevates, retracts and rotates scapula; superior fibers elevate, middle fibers retract, and inferior fibers depress scapula; superior and inferior fibers act together in superior rotation of scapula SHOULDER ANATOMY . Levator Scapula . Elevates scapula and tilts its glenoid cavity inferiorly by rotating scapula CLAVICLE AND SCAPULA . Things you may or may not know . Very important to address when addressing the shoulder . May be the primary reason limiting the shoulder CLAVICLE . Looking from the front, the medial 2/3 is convex and lateral 1/3 is concave- only long bone that is horizontal in the body . Acts as a “strut” to hold the arm away from the body and allows space for veins and nerves . Muscles/Ligament attached: . Trapezius muscle . Deltoid Muscle . Coracoclavicular ligament . Sternocleidomastoid muscle . Pectoralis major muscle . Subclavius muscle CLAVICLE . Sternoclavicular (SC) Joint Structure . Articulation of clavicle with the sternum . Only direct attachment of the upper extremity to the skeleton . Clavicle moves in 3 planes (3 degrees of freedom) . Elevation and Depression of SC . Protraction and retraction of SC . Axial Rotation of clavicle . All shoulder girdle movements start at the SC joint, if it is fused not only the clavicle and scapula would be limited but the entire shoulder! CLAVICLE . The Acromioclavicular Joint (AC) allows motion in all 3 planes, allowing the scapula to maintain contact with the posterior thorax: . Upward rotation and downward rotation . Rotation in the horizontal plane . Rotation in the sagittal plane . Acromioclavicular Ligament . Joins clavicle to acromion, prevents dislocations of the scapula CORACOLCLAVICULAR LIGAMENT . Attaches twice on clavicle and the coracoids process of scapula . It is responsible for bearing most of the weight of the hanging arm. Without this ligament, the arm is unable to hang from the body CORACOCLAVICULAR LIGAMENT SCAPULA . The scapula is only attached to the thorax by . ligaments at the AC joint . suction mechanism provided by . serratus anterior . subscapualaris . Main stabilizers of the scapula: . Serratus anterior . Rhomboid major and minor . Levator scapulae . Trapezius SCAPULOHUMERAL RHYTHM . The first 30 degrees of shoulder joint motion is pure glenohumeral joint motion . •After that, for every 2 degrees of shoulder flexion or abduction that occurs, the scapula must upwardly rotate 1 degree . •This 2:1 ratio is known as scapulohumeral rhythm SCAPULAR DYSKINESIS . Winging . Posterior movement of the medial border of the scapula, Rotation about a vertical axis . Long Thoracic nerve injury . Weak serratus anterior . Usually from poor posture, especially when stress is carried in their neck- rhomboid and levator scapulae muscles are shortened SCAPULAR DYSKINESIS . Tipping . Posterior movement of the inferior angle of the scapula, Rotation about a transverse axis . Pectoralis minor is shortened RELAX You made It though The hard Part SHOULDER POSITION . Different for everyone . Side view, ears should be in alignment with shoulders . Shoulders should be in alignment with hips . May not be able to achieve due to bony/soft tissue changes and congenital deformities SHOULDER POSITION/PHYSICS . Levers . The humerus is a complicated class 3 lever when the elbow is straight. (Reminder on a class 3 lever: Effort is in the middle (muscle): the resistance is on one side of the effort (whatever a person is lifting) and the fulcrum is located on the other side (shoulder girdle)) . Fulcrum is set best when the shoulder girdle is at neutral. When shoulder girdle is no longer at neutral, the “lever” loses effectiveness CLASS 3 LEVER fulcrum effort resistance EVALUATION IS IMPORTANT . This will mostly design how the person is treated . In my experience, most people do not have optimal strength unless they have over 150 degrees of shoulder flexion without compensation . Most people are upwardly rotated and abducted . Pain-where is it specifically? . Additional extension, limited internal and/or external rotation COMPENSATION . When a person has lost range of motion, they learn to compensate . The job must be done!!!! . Compensatory patterns will give you clues as to areas that need to be addressed TYPICAL COMPENSATION PATTERNS . Shoulder flexion- abduction of the shoulder, lordosis of cervical/thoracic spine . Shoulder abduction- lateral flexion of torso/spine, shoulder flexion, protraction of scapula TYPICAL COMPENSATION PATTERNS . Shoulder internal rotation- protraction of scapula, rotation of trunk, kyphosis of thoracic/cervical area . Shoulder external rotation- retraction of scapula, rotation of trunk, lordosis of thoracic/cervical area ASSESSING RANGE OF MOTION . How is reduced shoulder ROM limiting ADL’s . Limited shoulder flexion: brushing/washing hair, donning/doffing shirt/jacket, reaching into cabinet . Limited horizontal adduction: Donning/doffing clothing, hair care, kitchen tasks, peri care ASSESSING RANGE OF MOTION . Limited internal rotation: washing back, hooking bra, pulling up pants, peri care, cooking, mowing the lawn/starting mower . Limited external rotation: brushing teeth, brushing/washing hair, using a walker, cooking ASSESSING RANGE OF MOTION . Is functional ROM causing deformity? . Does that person really have functional movement? . Need to look at the entire body . Watch for compensatory movement . Look for pain cues (wincing, grunting, etc.) ASSESSING RANGE OF MOTION . Where is the block? Eg. Shoulder flexion . Look at straight flexion without allowing any other movement, you will feel a slight “stop” in the movement if there is a restriction . Where is the compensatory movement? . Limited shoulder flexion can cause compensation . Cervical, thoracic, lumbar vertebrae . Spillover into abduction and external rotation ASSESSING RANGE OF MOTION . Long term effects . Pain . Arthritis . Impingement . Decreased strength . Destruction of structures of the shoulder . Biceps . Coracobrachialis . Ultimately loss of function TREATMENT FOR SCAPULAE . Mostly upwardly rotated and abducted . Mobilizations and soft tissue release . We must… and scapular squeeze .

More than 90% of cases involve the brachial plexus, 5% involve venous obstruction, and 1% are associate with arterial obstruction. The clinical presentation, including symptoms, physical examination, pathology, etiology, and treatment differences among neurogenic, venous, and arterial TOS syndromes. This review details the diagnostic testing required to differentiate among the associated conditions and recommends appropriate medical or surgical treatment for each compression syndrome. The long- term outcomes of patients with TOS and pectoralis minor syndrome also vary and depend on duration of symptoms before initiation of physical therapy and surgical intervention. Overall, it can be expected that 480% of patients with these compression syndromes can experience functional improvement of their upper extremity; higher for arterial and venous TOS than for neurogenic compression. & 2015 Published by Elsevier Inc. 1.

Correspondence to: Marcelo Irigo, MD. Department of Surgery, University of La Plata, La Plata, Argentina. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: The mammary gland is composed of multiple tubules acinar pockets in which the secretory layer, connective tissue stroma, and fatty tissue all respond to hormonal and systemic influences. These structures are irrigated by three vascular pedicle branches, from the axillary artery, internal mammary artery, and intercostal artery. This vascular anastomotic arrangement forms the anatomical basis of the flaps used in breast reduction techniques. The veins form a strong subdermal network, latticed with the arterial network. The lymph vessels have three well-defined pedicles, skin, glandular and milk ducts that drain into internal, external, and posterior ducts. The understanding of these anatomical structures determines the selection of different pedicles in breast volume reduction and preservation

    From the Midwestern Vascular Surgical Society The supraclavius muscle is a novel muscular anomaly observed in two cases of thoracic outlet syndrome Payam Salehi, MD, PhD, Wande B. Pratt, MD, Michael F. Joseph, BS, Lauren N. McLaughlin, ACNP, and Robert W. Thompson, MD, St. Louis, Mo Various anomalous muscles and fibrofascial structures have been described in relation to the anatomy of thoracic outlet syndrome. We describe two patients with a previously undescribed muscle anomaly, which originated laterally near the trapezius muscle, coursed across the supraclavicular space deep to the scalene fat pad, and attached obliquely to the superior undersurface of the medial clavicle, which we have termed the “supraclavius” muscle. The significance of the supraclavius muscle is unknown, but its occurrence in patients with thoracic outlet syndrome indicates that it can be associated with narrowing of the anatomic space adjacent to the neurovascular structures. (J Vasc Surg Cases 2015;1:84-6.) Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) refers to a group of by right paraclavicular thoracic outlet decompression for venous uncommon disorders arising from extrinsic compression of TOS.

Introduction. The catheter “pinch-off syndrome” has been described to be secondary to crimping of the catheter between the clavicle and the first rib, as well as entrapment of the catheter at the site of penetration of the subclavius muscle. The lateral insertion technique has been recommended to prevent catheter pinch-off, but it is unknown if this technique can prevent entrapment by the subclavius muscle. We undertook this study to evaluate the anatomical relationship of the subclavius muscle and the subclavian vein. Methods. Twenty-eight adult cadavers were studied on both right and left sides. The adherence between the subclavian vein and subclavius muscle was subjectively assessed and the distance between the two structures was measured in mm.

The subclavius posticus muscle: its phylogenetic retention and clinical relevance. Int. J. Morphol., 24(4):599-600, 2006. SUMMARY: During routine dissection practice a supernumerary muscle was found on the right side infraclavicular region of a male cadaver. This muscle was arising from the superior surface of the first rib and its coastal cartilage and inserted to a thick ligament that extended from the medial end of the suprascapular notch to the capsule of the acromioclavicular joint. This accessory muscle slip was innervated by a branch from the nerve to subclavius. According to its location and innervation the aberrant muscle was considered to be the subclavius posticus. The anatomic relationships of the muscle make it clinically significant. KEY WORD: Subclavius posticus muscle; Muscular variation; Hypobranchial musculature; Accessory phrenic nerve. INTRODUCTION The subclavius posticus (chondroscapularis) is an of omohyoid and laterally blended with the capsule of the aberrant muscle described by Rossenmuller in 1800 (Akita acromioclavicular joint.
