Muscles of the Shoulder01:23

Muscles of the Shoulder

The muscles surrounding the shoulder girdle, including the clavicle and scapula, primarily stabilize the scapula. This stable base allows other muscles to move the humerus effectively. Scapular movements often mirror those of the humerus and extend its range of motion. For instance, raising the arm above the head would not be feasible without simultaneous upward rotation of the scapula.
Anterior Thoracic Muscles
The anterior thoracic muscles include the serratus anterior, subclavius, and...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Rheumatology
  • Geriatrics

Background:

  • Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of disability in the USA, particularly affecting individuals over sixty.
  • Shoulder OA impacts a significant portion of the elderly population, necessitating effective management strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of current treatment modalities for shoulder OA.
  • To discuss the role of nonoperative and surgical interventions in managing shoulder OA.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of existing nonoperative and surgical treatments for shoulder OA.
  • Analysis of treatment guidelines and clinical evidence for shoulder OA management.

Main Results:

  • Nonoperative treatments are recommended for mild-to-moderate shoulder OA or when symptoms are modest.
  • Surgical intervention, particularly joint arthroplasty, is considered the most effective option for severe shoulder OA.

Conclusions:

  • A stepwise approach to shoulder OA treatment, starting with conservative measures, is advised.
  • Joint arthroplasty remains the gold standard for end-stage shoulder OA when conservative options fail.
