Position the patient’s arm with the elbow flexed at 90°and in slight abduction (the abduction tests whether the patient can keep the arm externally rotated against gravity). 2.
8 Απρ 2024 · Shoulder flexion occurs in the sagittal plane, with a normal range of motion (ROM) of: 0-180°. [1] The glenohumeral joint, of the shoulder girdle, is associated with shoulder flexion osteokinematics. [2] The glenohumeral joint is seated between the glenoid fossa and the humeral head.
During right arm flexion: The upper thoracic vertebrae right side flexes, right rotates and extends. The first and second ribs descend, while the 4-6th ascend and the 3rd acts as an axis. Limitation of motion in any of these structures will adversely affect the biomechanics of the shoulder girdle and may produce or predispose the shoulder ...
The shoulder girdle is a complex structure consisting of four joints, many muscles, tendons, ligaments and bursae. Conducting an effective subjective and objective assessment, which considers the complexities of this region is, therefore, essential. This page provides an overview of the key features of this evaluation.
In Neer’s test, first we ask the patient to fully pronate the forearm, then we passively flex the arm until it is over the patient’s head. This maneuver reduces the subacromial space and reproduces pain if shoulder impingement is present.
25 Αυγ 2016 · The serratus should always be tested in shoulder flexion to minimize the synergy with the trapezius. If the scapular position at rest is normal, ask the patient to raise the test arm above the head in the sagittal plane.
