NURSING ANM AND GNM

Detailed explanation-1: -Anterior dislocation is the most common, accounting for up to 97% of all shoulder dislocations. Mechanism of injury is usually a blow to an abducted, externally rotated and extended extremity.

Detailed explanation-2: -Anterior dislocation is most common, accounting for 95 to 97 percent of cases. Posterior dislocation accounts for 2 to 4 percent, and inferior dislocation (ie, luxatio erecta, which means “to place upward") accounts for 0.5 percent [6].

Detailed explanation-3: -Mechanism of injury – Inferior dislocations are most commonly caused by axial loading with the arm fully abducted or forceful hyperabduction of the arm [42]. Such dislocations frequently occur when patients fall and suddenly grasp an object above their heads, causing hyperabduction.

Detailed explanation-4: -In this position, the inferior glenohumeral complex serves as the primary restraint to anterior glenohumeral translation. Due to a lack of ligamentous support and dynamic stabilization, the glenohumeral joint is most susceptible to dislocation in the 90° abduction and 90° external rotation.
