Glenohumeral joint
Acromioclavicular joint
STERNOCLAVICULAR JOINT
• Saddle joint permitting the
clavicle to move in all 3
planes
• A fused SC would limit all
shoulder motion!
• SCJ disc
• Separates the joint into
two cavities
• Clavicle-disc
Disc-manubrium
SCJ, MOVEMENTS
• Functions of the SCJ
• Provide movement of the scapula (along with the
• ACJ)
• Absorb forces from the upper extremity
• Elevatoin
• Depression
• Protraction
• Retraction
• Rotation
SCJ MVMT
• Motions allowed at the SCJ
• • Elevation-Depression of the clavicle
• Elevation occurs with shoulder flexion and abduction
• Depression with shoulder extension and adduction
SCAPULOTHORACIC JOINT
• Elevation
• Depression
• Protraction
• Retraction
• Upward
• Downward
• Internal rotation( Tipping)
• External rotation
• Winging
• Protraction-Retraction of the clavicle
• Occurs mostly between the disc and the manubrium
• Protraction occurs with shoulder horiz adduction
• Retraction with horiz abduction, shoulder extension
• Rotation
• Occurs due to tightening of the coraco- clavicular
ligament during humeral elevation (after 90)
• If no posterior rotation available, can only get 120 of
humeral elevation
AC & GH Joints
ACROMIOCLAVICULAR JOINT
• Very difficult joint to characterize; wide variability in the
size and shape of the lateral clavicle
The ACJ is characterized as a plane synovial joint
• ACJ disc
Helps with mobility;
Exists early in life but
thins by age 20-30
ACROMIOCLAVICULAR JOINT
• Function of ACJ
• AC joint facilitates raising the arm up over the head
• Acts like a strut to help with movement of the scapula
resulting in a greater degree of arm
rotation
ACJ
• Supporting structures of ACJ
• • ACJ capsule
• Very weak, relies on ligaments for reinforcement
• • Acromioclavicular ligaments
• • Coracoacromial ligament
• Coraco-clavicular ligament
• Two sections
• Conoid (medial)
• Trapezoid (lateral)
• Most important stabilizing
structure at the ACJ
Prevents clavicle from over-riding the acromion
Transmits forces from the scapula to the clavicle
Ligaments & Tendons
Shoulder Ligaments
GLENOHUMERAL JOINT
• Classic ball and socket
• joint
• • Composed of glenoid
• fossa and humeral head
• Fossa only articulates with 25% of the humeral head
• • Sacrifices stability for mobility
GH JOINT
• Coraco-acromial Arch
• Prevents upward dislocation of the humeral head
• Protects rotator cuff and humeral head from direct
trauma

Rotator Cuff Injuries
• Tendonitis
• OA
• Bursitis
• Impingement syndrome
• 1/3 cases of shoulder pain
• Narrowing space of humerus & Acromion
• Pain on abduction 60-120o
• Anatomical enlargement of joint(AC)& Swelling of tendon and/or
bursae, or weakness of scapulothoracic M. (e.g. Serratus
anterior)
Rotator Cuff Injuries
• Rotator cuff tear( tennis shoulder)
• Most common cause of shoulder pain
• Pain during motion & night
• Muscular atrophy & weakness
• Labral tears
• Rim of soft tissue in glenoid
• Connect with biceps tendon
• Injury, age
SPEED TEST
• The test is best performed with the patient in a relaxed sitting position
• The arm to be tested should be in about 60 degrees of front flexion
with the forearm supinated and the elbow fully extended
• In the starting position the examiner forcefully presses down on the
patient’s arm at the forearm
• The patient attempts to resist the pressure of the examiner
• Alternatively the patient attempts to
forward flex the shoulder while the examiner
resists
Positive Speed Test
• If pain is reported in the bicipital groove
• Weakness in maintaining the forward flexion position will also
likely be noted
• A positive test is indicative of long head of biceps tendon
instability or tendonitis
• Tenderness on palpation of the bicipital groove also indicates
bicipital tendinitis
• When the therapist stops pushing down on the arm a sudden
jerking motion may result
• Pain at this point may indicate a positive test for sub-acromial
bursitis
Cross Arm Adduction (Scarf Test)
• Tests AC joint
• A positive test commonly indicates AC joint osteoarthritis
or A-C joint ligament injury such as a ligament sprain or
joint separation
• The A-C joint is very prone to injury due to the small
articulation surfaces that are quite incongruent
• The two surfaces are the
distal end of the clavicle and
the acromion process of the
Scapula
• Injuries usually occur due to
Falls and in contact sports
Cross Arm Adduction (Scarf Test)
• The examiner should stand behind the patient on the
side being tested
• Grasp the patient’s arm just distal to the elbow and
passively flex the patient’s shoulder to 90o
• Then maximally adduct the patient’s
shoulder (bring it across their body
towards the other shoulder)
• A positive test is considered if the
patient reports pain during the adduction
motion or localized pain in the AC joint
Kim Test
• Purpose
• Detection of a posteroinferior labral lesion
• A - With the patient in a sitting position with the arm 90
degrees of abduction, the examiner holds the elbow and
lateral aspect of the proximal arm, and a strong axial loading
force is applied
• B - while the arm is elevated 45 degrees
diagonally upward, downward and
Backward force is applied to the proximal arm
• A sudden onset of posterior shoulder pain
indicates a positive test result, regardless of accompanying
posterior clunk of the
humeral head
.
LAG Test
• Purpose
• To test for rotator cuff tears of the Subscapularis tendon
• Technique
• Patient is seated with examiner behind patient
• The affected arm is brought into maximal internal rotation behind the
back
• Examiner controls patient's arm at the elbow and wrist/hand which is
passively brought into 20 degrees of extension taking the forearm
and hand away from the back
• Instruct patient to actively maintain this position as examiner
releases the wrist but maintains support at the elbow
• A LAG is indicative of a subscapularis tendon tear describe the
magnitude of the LAG in 5 degree intervals with an obvious drop
indicating large or massive tear and a smaller lag revealing a partial
tear

Tendonitis
• Develop with repetitive overhead activities
• Playing tennis
• Pitching (baseball and golf)
• Painting
• Shoveling
