Joints • Shoulder girdle (scapulothoracic) • Scapula moves on the rib cage • Joint motion occurs at sternoclavicular joint & to a lesser amount at the acromioclavicular joint
Joints • Sternoclavicular (SC) • (Multiaxial) arthrodial/gliding classification • Movements • Anteriorly with protraction • Posteriorly with retraction • Superiorly with elevation • Inferiorly with depression
Joints • Acromioclavicular (AC) • Arthrodial/gliding classification • Movements • Some gliding & rotational motion accompanying other shoulder girdle & shoulder joint motions • Often injured
Objectives • Bones, bony landmarks and joints • Muscles • Movements
Muscles • Five muscles primarily involved in shoulder girdle movements • All originate on axial skeleton & insert on scapula and/or clavicle • Do not attach to humerus & do not cause shoulder joint actions • Functions: • Stability • ROM of shoulder joint
Shoulder Girdle Muscles • Five muscles primarily involved in shoulder girdle movements • Trapezius - upper, middle, lower • Rhomboid - deep • Levator scapula • Serratus anterior • Pectoralis minor - deep
Objectives • Bones, bony landmarks and joints • Muscles • Movements
Movements • Focus on specific bony landmarks • inferior angle • glenoid fossa • acromion process • Shoulder girdle movements = scapula movements
Movements • Elevation • upward or superior movement, as in shrugging shoulders • Depression • downward or inferior movement, as in returning to normal position
Movements • Abduction (protraction) • scapula moves laterally away from spinal column • Adduction (retraction) • scapula moves medially toward spinal column
Movements • Upward rotation • turning glenoid fossa upward & moving inferior angle superolaterally away from spinal column • Downward rotation • returning inferior angle inferomedially toward spinal column & glenoid fossa to normal position
Adduction Elevation Shoulder GirdleMovements Abduction Upward Rotation Downward Rotation Depression
Movements • Anterior tilt (upward tilt) • Rotational movement of scapula about frontal axis • Occurs during glenohumeral hyperextension • Posterior tilt (downward tilt) • Rotational movement of scapula about frontal axis • Occurs during glenohumeral hyperflexion
Movements • Lateral tilt (outward tilt) • Rotational movement about its vertical axis • Occurs during protraction • Medial tilt (return from lateral tilt, inward tilt) • Rotational movement about its vertical axis • Occurs during retraction
Movements • Shoulder joint & shoulder girdle work together • Shoulder girdle movement independent • Upward/downward rotation? • Shoulder girdle muscles • Stabilize scapula • Enhance ROM of shoulder joint
ELEVATION • Proximal attachment: Above or below scapula/clavicle? • How many muscles fit this criteria? • Upper fibers trapezius • Middle fibers trapezius • Rhomboids • Levator Scapulae
DEPRESSION • Proximal attachment: Above or below scapula/clavicle? • How many muscles fit this criteria? • Lower fibers trapezius • Pectoralis minor • Subclavius
RETRACTION • Proximal attachment: In front (ribs) or behind (spine)? • How many muscles fit this criteria? • Trapezius (all fibers) • Rhomboids • Levator scapulae
PROTRACTION • Proximal attachment: In front (ribs) or behind (spine)? • How many muscles fit this criteria? • Serratus anterior • Pectoralis minor
UPWARD ROTATION • Upward or downward torque? • How many muscles fit this criteria? • Trapezius (all fibers) • Serratus anterior
DOWNWARD ROTATION • Upward or downward torque? • How many muscles fit this criteria? • Pectoralis minor • Rhomboids
