What are the articulating surfaces of the GH joint?
glenoid fossa and humeral head
What is the classification of the GH joint?
diarthrotic, synovial, ball and socket
What are the movements of the GH joint?
Flex/Ex - sagittal plane, med/lat axis;
ABD/ADD - frontal plane, AP axis;
Int/Ext rot., N/A, mech. axis;
Horizontal ABD/ADD, transverse plane, vertical axis.
What are the ligaments of the GH joint?
coracoacromial
glenohumeral
transverse humeral
labrum
coracohumeral
capsule
SITS mm tendons
What does the coracoacromial ligament do?
it completes the acromial arch.
it prevents superior displacement of the humerus.
True or false - the coracoacromial ligament is extracapsular?
True
What are the bands of the GH ligament?
superior, middle, inferior
The GH ligament limits what?
External rotation, horizontal ABD/ADD
What does the transverse humeral ligament limit?
limits lateral displacement of biceps tendon.
What is the purpose of the labrum
line and deepen the glenoid fossa
What are the 2 bands of the coracohumeral ligament?
superior and inferior
What does the coracohumeral ligament limit?
external rotation, supports against gravity
Where is the capsule of the GH joint?
the rim of the glenoid fossa and anatomic humeral neck
What are the articulating surfaces of the sternoclavicular joint?

what are the movements permitted in the in sternoclavicular joint?
elevation/depression: frontal plane, AP axis
protraction/retraction: transverse plane, vertical axis
rotation: no plane, mech axis
ABD/Flex terminal ranges
inspiration/expiration
Describe the capsule of the SC joint
