Q

Painful arc for Glenohumeral

A

45-60 to 120

29
Q

Scapulohumeral rhythm

A

After 30° of abduction rhythm is remarkably constant at 2:1 ratio

every 3° of shoulder abduction…
2° comes from a Glenohumeral abduction and 1° comes from ST upward rotation

30
Q

kinematic principles of Scapulohumeral abduction

A
  1. 2:1 ratio of GH to ST motion
  2. 60° of ST upward rotation result from simultaneous elevation of the clavicle at the SC joint, combine with the upward rotation of the scapula at the AC joint
  3. clavicle retracts at SC joint during full SH abduction about 15°.
  4. Sscapula posteriorly tells about 20° and externally rotate about 10°.
  5. Clavicle, rotates, posteriorly around long axis.
  6. humerus naturally externally rotate during SH abduction.
31
Q
