Preview Shoulder Impingement Testing

Shoulder Evaluation for Wheelchair Users: An Evidence Based Approach for Clinicians Martin J. Kilbane, PT, OCS 31st International Seating Symposium February 27, 2015 Nashville, TN Learning Objectives Upon completion of this lecture participants will be able to: 1. List two pathologies of the glenohumeral joint and scapulo- thoracic joint common to individuals with spinal cord injury 2. List three available research and current evidenced based practice sources on examination techniques for the shoulder complex. 3. List three basic shoulder examination techniques to appropriately identify structural pathology and assist in determining appropriate wheelchair selection. Overall Goal of Presentation Are we utilizing the best available evidence for examination of the shoulder complex when prescribing wheelchairs? Evidence doesn’t tell us everything, but it certainly tells us a lot! Why the big fuss? Incidence in SCI • According to the Consortium for Spinal Cord Injuries Clinical Practice Guidelines 2005 (Surveys and Cross Sectional Studies) it is estimated to be up to 60%. • Shoulder pain is a problem in up to 86% of persons with spinal cord injury. • Eriks-Hoogland IE, Hoekstra T, de Groot S, Stucki G, Post MW, van der Woude LH. Trajectories of musculoskeletal shoulder pain after spinal cord injury: Identification and predictors. J Spinal Cord Med. 2014 May;37(3):288-98. • General Population: – 30% of people experiencing shoulder pain at some stage of their lives up to 50% of the population experiencing at least one episode of shoulder pain annually. • Lewis JS.

Why do we need to revolutionize care? • Only 2% of this population undergoes shoulder surgery treatment for rotator cuff tear and shoulder disability (out of 60% who reported pain). • Pellegrini A, Pegreffi F, Paladini P, Verdano MA, Ceccarelli F, Porcellini G.

Risk Factors in SCI • Duration of injury • Older age • Higher BMI • Use of manual wheelchair • Poor seated Posture • Decreased Flexibility • Muscle imbalances of the rotator cuff and scapula stabilizers • With a better understanding of the epidemiology, etiology, and basic patho-mechanics of shoulder pain in SCI, clinicians are in a better position to evaluate, treat, and prevent these disorders.

SCIRE Project summary www.scireproject.com • The shoulder is the most common joint above the level of injury where pain complaints are reported with persons with paralysis (tetraplegia or paraplegia) (Apple 2001). • The shoulder is not well designed to handle the higher intra-articular pressures required for both weight bearing and mobility (Apple 2001). • Partial innervation and impaired balance of shoulder, scapular and thoracolumbar muscles place individuals with tetraplegia at a higher risk for developing shoulder pain especially during weight-bearing upper limb activities such as wheelchair propulsion, transfers, and pressure reliefs. • Due to differences in trunk postural control, differences may also occur between individuals with high paraplegia (T2-T7) and low paraplegia (T8-T12). • Individuals with C1-C4 motor levels of injury are also at risk for shoulder pain • SCI severity also may be associated with shoulder pain (Dyson-Hudson & Kirshblum 2004). • Lack of use of immobilization of the shoulder girdle muscles can limit their active joint movement and lead to muscle shortening and shoulder capsule tightness. SCIRE Project summary www.scireproject.com • The development of pain is associated with decreased shoulder ROM • Weakness and paralysis in these muscles can lead to increased reliance on the trapezius, which can result in overuse and pain in this muscle. • Shoulder pain can occur from nerve root injury or radicular pain with dysesthesias or phantom sensations • People of certain age groups, those with higher cervical lesions and those with shorter lengths of bed rest may be at a greater risk • Gender may be associated with shoulder pain in individuals with SCI (Pentland & Twomey 1991). • Body mass index (BMI) also may play a role in shoulder injuries in manual wheelchair using individuals with SCI because it directly relates to the amount of physical strain experienced during ADLs in these individuals (Bonninger et al. 2001; Jensen et al. 1996). • Shoulder pain is more common in individuals with tetraplegia and complete injuries and in women and duration of injury, older age, and higher BMI all may be risk factors for developing shoulder pain and/or abnormalities in persons with SCI (Dyson-Hudson & Kirshblum 2004).
