30 Οκτ 2023 · Acting in conjunction with the pectoral girdle, the shoulder joint allows for a wide range of motion at the upper limb; flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, external/lateral rotation, internal/medial rotation and circumduction. In fact, it is the most mobile joint of the human body.
8 Οκτ 2024 · The shoulder joint is an extremely mobile joint, with a wide range of movement possible: Extension (upper limb backwards in sagittal plane) – posterior deltoid, latissimus dorsi and teres major. Flexion (upper limb forwards in sagittal plane) – pectoralis major, anterior deltoid and coracobrachialis.
An alternative testing position for internal and external glenohumeral joint rotation is prone with the shoulder at 90 degrees of abduction and the elbow at 90 degrees of flexion. The forearm hangs over the edge of the table.
The patient experiences pain in the AC joint when bringing the forward flexed arm across the front of their body, as if to “toss a scarf” over the opposite shoulder. Flexion, extension, abduction and adduction can be tested, and the degree of motion can be noted compared to normal.
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 ...
Relevant Anatomy. Shoulder Anatomy. The range of motion (ROM) of the arm relative to the trunk does not just come from the glenohumeral joint. Movement also occurs in the acromioclavicular (a.c.) joint, sternoclavicular (s.c.) joint and the upper costosternal and costovertebral joints.
30 Οκτ 2023 · The glenohumeral joint does not allow movements of the shoulder girdle itself, but it does allow movements of the upper limb. In fact, it is one of the most mobile joints of the human body, permitting a wide range of movements of the arm, including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, rotation (medial and lateral rotation), and circumduction.
