Study Notes

Global Flexion

  • 3 stages: 0º-30º, 30º-120º, and 120º-180º
  • In the first stage, motor muscles involved are anterior deltoids, coracobrachialis, and clavicular pectoralis major
  • In the second stage, upward rotation of the scapula occurs, with ACj and SCCj participation, and motor muscles involved are serratus major, upper trapezius, and previous muscles
  • In the third stage, shoulder joint lock occurs, and spinal intervention begins

Global Abduction

  • 3 stages: 0º-90º, 90º-150º, and 150º-180º
  • In the first stage, motor muscles involved are deltoids, especially the middle fasciculus and supraspinatus
  • In the second stage, upward rotation of the scapula occurs, with axial rotation AC and SCC, and motor muscles involved are serratus and upper trapezius
  • In the third stage, contralateral tilt of the spine occurs due to contraction of the spinal muscles of the opposite side

Global Extension

  • 45º-55º
  • Involved muscles are scapulohumeral and scapulothoracic
  • Scapulohumeral motor muscles include post deltoid, teres major and minor
  • Scapulothoracic motor muscles include rhomboids, middle trapezius, and latissimus dorsi

Global Adduction

  • 30º-45º
  • Motor muscles involved are GHj flex, arthrokinematics controllers, coaptation force, and without the force of the supraspinatus, the predominant action of the deltoids equals impingement of the head with the acromion

Muscular Actions

  • Muscles of the scapulothoracic joint include rhomboids, stabilizing the scapula in ADD and GH extension, and all rotator cuff muscles being active during this movement
  • Muscles that elevate the arm include upper trapezius, levator scapulae, and rhomboids
  • Muscles that move in ADD and extend the shoulder include latissimus dorsi, sternocostal portion pectoralis major, teres major, triceps long head, posterior deltoid, infraspinatus, and teres minor
  • Muscles that internally and externally rotate the shoulder include subscapularis, anterior deltoid, pectoralis major, latissimus dorsi, teres minor, infraspinatus, and posterior deltoid

Movement Limits

  • Coracohumeral ligament strain occurs
  • Ligaments involved include coracohumeral and glenohumeral
  • Coracohumeral ligament has lesser tubercle fasciculus extension, greater tubercle fasciculus flexion, and abduction relaxes and adduction tenses, external rotation tenses and internal rotation relaxes
  • Glenohumeral ligament has ABD tension in lower and middle fascicles, ADD relaxes superior fascicle, and external rotation tenses all three fascicles and internal rotation relaxes all
