Q

What’s the main function of the coracoacromial arch? What tendon passes beneath it?

A

Prevents the superior displacement of the humeral head; tendon of supraspinatus muscle passes beneath arch to insert on superior facet of greater tubercle

Q

Describe scapulohumeral rhythm.

A

The fact that full range of motion of the humerus is not due solely to motion at glenohumeral joint… remainder of motion contributed by scapulothoracic joint

Q

What is the movement ratio between the glenohumeral and scapulothoracic joints?

A

2:1 so for example in a 180 degree motion 120 degrees of motion was accomplished by GH while 60 was accomplished by ST joints
NB: 0-30 degrees GH joint only
30-180 degrees 2:1 GH and ST joints
