Muscles of the Shoulder01:23

Muscles of the Shoulder

8.9K
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...

  • Medical Simulation
  • 3D Printing Technology

Background:

  • Arthroscopic procedures are expanding with medical advancements.
  • Simulation training improves operative skills but faces cost and funding limitations for residents.
  • Limited access to effective arthroscopic training hinders skill development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a low-cost, high-fidelity, and adaptable 3D-printed arthroscopic shoulder simulator.
  • To improve access to arthroscopic surgical training opportunities for orthopaedic surgery residents.
  • To provide an anatomically accurate simulation tool for diverse shoulder pathologies.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a 3D-printed simulator from cadaveric computed tomography (CT) imaging.
  • Designed with modular components for easy assembly and adaptability.
  • Utilized readily available materials like rubber bands, gloves, or bone blocks for simulating pathologies.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated a double-row rotator cuff repair procedure on the simulator.
  • The simulator accurately replicates anatomical structures for realistic training.
  • Successfully simulated various shoulder pathologies and procedures.

Conclusions:
