Study Notes

Shoulder Range of Motion

  • The shoulder joint has a range of motion of 0-180° in flexion, allowing for full forward elevation of the arm.
  • In extension, the shoulder joint can move 0-60°, enabling the arm to be moved backward.
  • Abduction, or the movement of the arm away from the midline, has a range of 0-180°, allowing for full lateral elevation.
  • Internal rotation, or the rotation of the arm inward, has a range of 0-70°, permitting the arm to be rotated inward.
  • External rotation, or the rotation of the arm outward, has a range of 0-90°, allowing for the arm to be rotated outward.
  • Horizontal abduction, or the movement of the arm away from the midline in the horizontal plane, has a range of 0-45°.
  • Horizontal adduction, or the movement of the arm towards the midline in the horizontal plane, has a range of 0-135°.

Shoulder Range of Motion

  • Shoulder flexion ranges from 0 to 180 degrees.
  • Shoulder extension ranges from 0 to 60 degrees.
  • Shoulder abduction ranges from 0 to 180 degrees.
  • Shoulder internal rotation ranges from 0 to 70 degrees.
  • Shoulder external rotation ranges from 0 to 90 degrees.
  • Horizontal shoulder abduction ranges from 0 to 45 degrees.
  • Horizontal shoulder adduction ranges from 0 to 135 degrees.

Shoulder Internal Rotation Position

  • Internal rotation range of motion (ROM) is assessed in the supine position.
  • Internal rotation manual muscle test (MMT) is performed in the prone position.

Shoulder External Rotation Position

  • External rotation range of motion (ROM) is assessed in the supine position.
  • External rotation manual muscle test (MMT) is performed in the prone position.

Shoulder Internal Rotation

  • Scapula is responsible for stabilization
  • Proximal wrist provides resistance

Shoulder External Rotation

  • Scapula is responsible for stabilization
  • Proximal wrist provides resistance

Elbow Extension

  • Distal humerus is responsible for stabilization
  • Distal forearm provides resistance

Wrist Muscles

  • Flexion/Radial muscles include flexor carpi radialis (palpated) and flexor carpi ulnaris
  • Extension muscles include extensor carpi radialis, extensor carpi ulnaris, and brevis

Elbow Range of Motion

  • Flexion: 0-150°
  • Extension: 0°
  • Pronation: 0-80°
  • Supination: 0-80°

Wrist Range of Motion

  • Flexion: 0-80°
  • Extension: 0-70°
  • Ulnar deviation: 0-300°
  • Radial deviation: 0-200°

Shoulder ROM Landmarks

  • 'S' landmark is the mid-line of the thorax
  • 'M' landmark is the lateral condyle
  • 'A' landmark is the greater tubical (side of the armpit)

Abduction

  • 'S' landmark is the mid-line of the thorax (inside of the armpit)
  • 'M' landmark is the lateral condyle
  • 'A' landmark is the acromion
  • '5' landmark is parallel to the sternum
  • 'M' landmark is bisecting the humerus

Wrist Flexion & Extension

  • Landmarks include the olecranon process, triquetrum, and 5th metacarpal

Wrist Deviation

  • Landmarks include the bisecting forearm, capitate, and 3rd metacarpal
