Adduction

The oculomotor nerve, or CN III, is the third cranial nerve. It is responsible for controlling eye movement, the pupil and the movement of the upper eyelid (Jaffee & Stewart, 2016). The oculomotor nerve originates at the two nuclei, the oculomotor nucleus and the Edinger-Westphal nucleus that are at superior colliculus level of the midbrain, travels through the brain and exits through the superior orbital fissure of the sphenoid bone (Jaffee & Stewart, 2016). The nerve consists of two different

greater tuberosity can occur with a dislocation (Stayner et al., 2000). In contrast, a posteriorly dislocated shoulder is less common. It is commonly caused by external forces acting on the shoulder when the shoulder is held in internal rotation and adduction caused by direct trauma experienced during sporting activities (Hegedus et al., 2008). Additionally, it may be result from an epileptic fit,

Possible diagnosis Signs and Symptoms Pharmacological treatment Subacromial Bursitis 1. Pain that worsens over winter (when patient had to repetitively rake snow, possibly causing inflammation) 2. Pain located at the top and side of the shoulder (acromial area) Corticosteroid injection to decrease pain and inflammation Non-traumatic Partial Supraspinatus Tear 1. Pain that worsens over winter (when patient had to repetitively rake snow) 2. Pain at rest that increases with shoulder movement 3.Pain

Brainstem Injuries and the Neuropsychologist The Neuropsychologist plays an essential function in assessment and rehabilitation after an injury to the head. Neuropsychologists essentially bear responsibility for testing and tracking the patients thinking ability. Below are key functions provided by clinical neuropsychologists: - Carrying out detailed assessments of cognition, emotion, behavior, and social competence; - Devising and implementing training programs; - Liaising

specialized to detect glenohumeral joint labral tears. The O’Brien test is occasionally performed with the patient sitting, and its arm positioned at a 90-degree flexion (Kirchhoff, & Imhoff, 2010). The shoulder should also be about 10 degrees of adduction to properly examine the client (Kirchhoff, & Imhoff, 2010). A presided diagnosis can be completed through X-rays, MRIs and arthroscopy (Lannon). Labral tear treatment is available, and it consists of rest, anti-inflammatory medications, and physical

Acceleration The acceleration phase, takes place from maximal shoulder external rotation until the release of the football with shoulder internal rotation. The non-dominant elbow during the acceleration phases is ripping back. Like a young child ripping their favorite toy away from someone. The non-dominant hand should end up near the non-dominant armpit. The height of the dominant elbow should be maintained above the dominant shoulder with a slight flexion in the elbow. The ‘Little C’ should be

These joints would include the shoulder, elbow, wrist/hand, hip/pelvis, knee, ankle/foot, and spine. Movements at these joints could be flexion, extension, internal/external rotation, abduction, adduction, pronation, supination, inversion, eversion, etc. (Floyd, 2015). OTAs often use goniometers when evaluating their patients for the first time as well as throughout the course of treatment to see improvement. Already having a knowledge of this going

this is very similar to the initial phase, which was the catch phase there are some differences. In the recovery phase, the shoulders and elbows are again abducted and extended, and the scapulars are abducted. The shoulder girdle responsible for , adduction/abduction, downward /upward rotation, elevation/depression, the muscles involved: tramezius, pectoralis, The shoulder joint is responsible for flexion and extension muscles involved: latissimus dorsi, teres major/minor, deltoid, and infraspinatus

Resonance is the system responsible for shaping and modifying airflow as it passes through the pharyngeal, oral, and nasal cavity (Peña-Brooks & Hegde, 2007). One of the key structures involved in resonance is the velum. When there is weakness or slowness in the velar muscles, this results in the inability of the velum to completely elevate to ensure closure of the nasal cavity for the production of nonnasal speech phonemes (Freed, 2012). Thus, a nasal resonance is applied to phonemes that only require

Chapter One: Introduction      Over the past fifteen to twenty years women's fastpitch softball popularity has continued to grow and spread internationally. By the mid-1990s it was played in more than 85 countries under the eye of the International Softball Federation (ISF). It has become increasingly popular among women at the youth and collegiate levels. More than 630 National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) member institutions sponsor women's softball programs,
