    Study Notes

    Damage to Spinal Nerves

    • Damage to a cervical nerve root can impact specific muscles and posture, based on the level of the nerve.
    • For example, damage to the C5 nerve root can affect the deltoid muscle (shoulder abduction) and the biceps brachii muscle (elbow flexion).

    Spine Movement and Effects

    • Flexion, extension, lateral bending, and rotation of the spine involve ligaments, muscles, the intervertebral foramen, discs, and facet joints.
    • Specific movements can compress or stretch these structures.
    • Pelvic tilt affects spinal alignment and can influence the pressure on intervertebral discs.

    Deep Back Muscles

    • Deep back muscles stabilize the spine and control movement.
    • Muscle location influences the moment arm, which affects force production for specific movements.

    Arthrokinematics

    • Arthrokinematics describes the movements of joint surfaces.
    • Understand cervical and lumbar flexion, extension, lateral bending, and rotation.
    • Learn how joint surfaces move during these motions.

    Suboccipital Area

    • The suboccipital region contains muscles, nerves, ligaments, and blood vessels related to the head and neck.
    • Arthrokinematics of the occiput and C1 (atlas) involve specific movements for head rotation and flexion.

    Sternoclavicular Joint

    • Sternoclavicular joint arthrokinematics involve movements of the clavicle and scapula.
    • Scapular movements include protraction, retraction, elevation, depression, upward and downward rotation.
    • Analyze the relationship between clavicular and scapular movements.

    Glenohumeral Joint

    • Glenohumeral joint arthrokinematics involve movements of the humerus relative to the glenoid fossa.
    • Identify the axis of rotation for the glenohumeral joint.
    • Ligaments control the movement and stability of the shoulder.
    • Understand the role of various ligaments, like the coracoacromial ligament, in shoulder function.

    Force Couples

    • Force couples involve the combined action of multiple muscles to produce a specific movement.
    • For example, the upper and lower trapezius, serratus anterior muscles work together for upward rotation of the scapula.

    Spinal Arteries

    • Understand the path and branching of spinal arteries, supplying the spinal cord.
    • Know the arteries supplying the upper extremity.

    Shoulder Injury Implications

    • Damage to nerves, impacts specific muscles and movements, such as deltoid weakness for shoulder abduction.
    • Analyze the consequences of damage to different anatomical spaces, like the quadrangular space and the triangular space.

    Pain and Tenderness

    • Pain with resisted movements can indicate muscle injury, e.g., pain during resisted shoulder abduction may point to a supraspinatus injury.
    • Tenderness on palpation of a specific area can suggest involvement of certain muscle groups, e.g., tenderness over the infraspinatus muscle.

    Neuro-Sensory System for Balance

    • The neuro-sensory system plays a vital role in balance.
    • Integrate the roles of different brain areas like the cerebellum and basal ganglia in balance control.

    Scapular Orientation

    • The scapula is oriented 30-40 degrees anteriorly to the frontal plane.
    • This orientation is crucial for understanding its movement and its role in shoulder function.

    Axio-Appendicular Muscles

    • Axio-Appendicular Muscles connect the axial skeleton to the appendicular skeleton.
    • These muscles include the trapezius, latissimus dorsi, and others.
    • Know their innervation and actions.

    Muscle Action Determination

    • Understanding muscle origin, insertion, and fiber direction, considering joint movement, helps determine muscle action.

    Rotator Cuff Muscles

    • The rotator cuff muscles are crucial for shoulder stability and movement.
    • Know their attachment, action, and innervation.

    Scapulothoracic Joint Muscles

    • Muscles acting on the scapulothoracic joint control scapular motion.
    • Identify the elevators, depressors, protractors, retractors, upward, and downward rotators.

    Glenohumeral Joint Muscles

    • Glenohumeral joint muscles control humerus movement.
    • Identify muscles responsible for abduction, adduction, flexion, extension, internal, and external rotation.
    • Know the contribution of both glenohumeral and scapulothoracic muscles for specific motions.

    Force Couples

    • Understand the paired muscles that work together to create a movement. For example, the supraspinatus and middle deltoid act as force couples for abduction.

    Teres Major and Rotator Cuff

    • Teres major is not a rotator cuff muscle.
    • It adducts and medially rotates the arm, similar to subscapularis.

    Inferior and Superior Humerus Movements

    • Three out of four rotator cuff muscles contribute to the inferior slide of the humerus on the scapula during abduction.
    • Muscles that assist with the superior rolling of the humerus on the glenoid during abduction.

    Brachial Plexus Nerves

    • Understand the origins of nerves from the superior trunk, roots, and cords of the brachial plexus.
    • Know the branches of the brachial plexus.

    Dermatomes & Myotomes

    • Review the dermatomes and myotomes of the upper limb.
    • Dermatomes represent the cutaneous distribution of a spinal nerve.
    • Myotomes represent the muscular innervation of a spinal nerve.

    Upper Extremity Vasculature

    • Familiarize yourself with the major arteries supplying the upper extremity, from the subclavian artery to the axillary artery.
    • Understand the branches of these arteries and their distribution.

    Scapulohumeral Rhythm

    • Scapulohumeral rhythm describes the coordinated movement of the scapula and humerus during shoulder abduction.
    • A 2:1 ratio exists, with 2 degrees of humeral movement for every 3 degrees of total abduction.
    • The scapula contributes to the upward rotation, maximizing shoulder range of motion.

    Scapulohumeral Rhythm Function

    • Understand the importance of scapulohumeral rhythm for smooth, coordinated arm movement, preventing impingement, and promoting shoulder stability.

    Glenohumeral Joint Arthrokinematics

    • Arthrokinematics of the glenohumeral joint involve movements of the humeral head relative to the glenoid fossa.
    • Describe how these joint surfaces move during various shoulder motions.
