Davis Company On-Field Examination of Shoulder Injuries On-field palpation  Position of the humeral head  AC joint alignment  Clavicle  Sternoclavicular joint  Humerus Additional on-field tests  If joint dislocation or bony fracture have been ruled out  Apley’s scratch test (see Box 13–3) can be used as a gross assessment of the athlete’s willingness to move the involved extremity and the amount of motion

Evaluation of Orthopedic and Athletic Injuries, 3rd Edition Copyright © 2010. F.A. Davis Company  Scapular fracture  Body of the scapula  Glenoid fossa  Glenoid neck  Coracoid process  Management  Immobilize the arm on the affected side in a comfortable position  Athlete then is transported  GH dislocation also needs a radiographic evaluation to rule out a secondary fracture to the glenoid or coracoid process Initial Management of On-Field Shoulder Injuries

Evaluation of Orthopedic and Athletic Injuries, 3rd Edition Copyright © 2010. F.A. Davis Company  Clavicular fracture  Immobilization using a sling or triangular bandage  Transport for definitive diagnosis  Sternoclavicular joint injuries  Neurologic and vascular examination of the extremity and carotid artery  Involved arm is immobilized  Athlete is immediately transported to an emergency medical facility  Acromioclavicular joint injuries  Immobilize in a position that lessens the displacement between the clavicle and the acromial process  Protect joint with additional padding during activity On-Field Examination of Shoulder Injuries

Evaluation of Orthopedic and Athletic Injuries, 3rd Edition Copyright © 2010. F.A. Davis Company Glenohumeral dislocations Monitor the distal pulses, check for circulation in the fingertips, and perform a sensory screen Arm is fixed in the position it has assumed Reductions of GH dislocations should only be performed by those who are trained to do so Forced reduction of the humeral head may damage the glenoid fossa, the coracoid process, or the neurovascular structures in the area. Following reduction, assess distal pulse and active range of motion, avoiding external rotation and abduction. Stabilize the shoulder using a sling, and refer the athlete for further examination. Humeral fractures Splint in position found using moldable splint or vacuum splint Leave wrist and fingers exposed to check circulation Transport
