SHOULDER JOINT
• Glenohumeral joint
• Articulation surface – between head of humerus and glenoid fossa of scapula
• Ball and socket joint – allows 3 degrees of freedom
• Flexion/extension, abduction/adduction, internal/external rotation, horizontal adduction/horizontal abduction
2
KinematicsShoulder abduction/adduction
• Occur in the frontal plane/anteroposterior axis of rotation
• Range of motion
- full abduction: 180 deg (120 shoulder abd + 60 deg scapular upward rotation)
- adduction : vice versa (120 shoulder add + 60 deg scapular downward rotation)
• Involve the head of humerus rolling superiorly and slide inferiorly within glenoid fossa.
• Without inferior slide, the humeral head stuck into the acromion ---- impingement (suprasapinatus tendon or subacromial bursa)

Shoulder Impingement

Kinematics
Shoulder flexion/extension
• Occur in sagittal plane/medial-lateral axis of rotation
• ROM
- full flexion: 120 deg shoulder flexion + 60 deg scapular upward rotation
- extension : reverse action of flexion + 40 – 60 deg of hyperextension
5
Kinematics
Shoulder internal/external rotation
• Occur in horizontal plane/vertical axis of rotation
• Rotation results in the anterior surface of humerus rotates medially/internally (internal rotation) or rotates laterally/externally (external rotation)
• ROM
- external rotation : about 90 deg (80-100 deg)
- internal rotation : about 70 deg (65 – 80deg)
6
Kinematics
Shoulder horizontal abduction/horizontal adduction
• SPECIAL MOVEMENT
• Occur when shoulder 90 deg abd, humerus will move in horizontal plane
• Humerus move towards midline – horizontal adduction
• Humerus move away form midline – horizontal abduction
7
Supporting Structure
• Shoulder joint – highly mobile (TRIAXIAL JOINT, LARGE ROM) but less stability
• Due to large, rounded head of humerus and the shallowness of glenoid fossa of scapula
• Strengthen by :1. Rotator cuff muscles2. Capsular ligaments3. Coracohumeral ligament4. Glenoid labrum5. Long head of the biceps
8
ROTATOR CUFF MUSCLES
• ROTATOR CUFF MUSCLES – CENTRE OF STABILITY
• Consist of SITS; Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres minor and Subascapularis muscles
• Function – centralizing and stabilizing the humeral head within glenoid fossa
• Surround humeral head anteriorly, superiorly and posteriorly, and providing muscular force that pulls the humeral head towards glenoidfossa.

Ligamentous Structure
Capsular lig
• Consist of superior, inferior and middle glenohumeral lig, attaches between the rim of gleoid gossa and anatomical neck of humerus
Coracohumeral lig
• Prevents inferior displacement of humeral head, prevent excessive motion of flexion, extension and external rotation, attaches between coracoid process of scapula and greater tubercle of humerus.

Others Structure
Glenoid Labrum
• A fibrocartilaginous riing that encircles the edge of glenoid fossa, deepen the glenoid fossa (nearly doubling the function of glenoid fossa)
Long Head of the Biceps
• The proximal portion of the tendon wraps around the superior aspect of the humeral head (originates form supraglenoid tubercle), provide anterior stability of shoulder joint.
15
Scapulohumeral Rhythm• The full range of shoulder motion normally is combination
between the motion in glenohumeral and scapulothoracic joint.
• A natural rhythm/ratio between GH joint and scapulothoracicjoint --- 2:1
• That’s means for every 2 deg of shoulder abduction/flexion, the scapula must upward rotate roughly 1 deg. (vice versa for adduction/extension)
• The full ROM of shoulder abduction/flexion= 180 deg, which combination between 120 deg shoulder abduction/flexion + 60 deg scapular upward rotation.
180 degrees of shoulder abduction/flexion = 120 degrees of glenohumeral joint abduction +
60 degrees of scapulothoracic joint upward rotation
16
Scapulothoracic (ST) Joint
• Not a truth joint
• Articulating between anterior surface of scapula to posterior thorax (ribs 2-7)
• Movements : permits scapular elevation/depression, protraction/retraction, upward/downward rotation
• Motion of ST joint is dependent on the combined movement of the acromioclavicular (AC) and sternoclavicular (SC) joint.
• The full 60 deg ST joint upward rotation = 30 deg of SC joint elevation + 30 deg AC joint upward rotation
