joints that make up the shoulder complex

The shoulder complex is formed by a series of unique articulations including the glenohumeral joint, sternoclavicular joint, acromioclavicular joint, and scapulothoracic articulation.
glenohumeral joint
The glenohumeral joint is formed by the convex head of the humerus and the concave glenoid fossa of the scapula.
Glenohumeral Snapshot:
Osteokinematic motions: flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, medial rotation, lateral rotation
Loose packed position: 55 degrees abduction, 30 degrees horizontal adduction
Close packed position: abduction and lateral rotation
Capsular pattern: lateral rotation, abduction, medial rotation
convex/concave, Osteokinematic motions,loose packed, close packed position, and Capsular pattern.
sternoclavicular joint
The sternoclavicular joint is formed by the medial end of the clavicle and the manubrium of the sternum.

Sternoclavicular Snapshot:
Osteokinematic motions: elevation, depression, protraction, retraction, medial rotation, lateral rotation
Loose packed position: arm resting by the side
Close packed position: maximum shoulder elevation
Capsular pattern: pain at extremes of range of movement

Osteokinematic motion, loose and close packed postion, and Capsular pattern

acromioclavicular joint

the acromioclavicular joint is formed by the acromion process of the scapula and the lateral end of the clavicle.


Acromioclavicular snapshot:


osteokinematic motions: anterior tilting, posterior tilting, upward rotation, downward rotation, protrction, and retraction.


Loose packed position: arm resting by the side


Close packed position: arm abducted to 90 degrees


CApsular pattern: pain at extremes of ROM

osteokinematic motion, loose and close packed positions, and capsular pattern

Scapulothoracic joint

it is formed by the body of the scapula and the muscles covering the posterior chest wall.
