Which of the following actions would you initially direct to your client to take in order to test the structure and function of scapulohumeral rhythm?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Scapulohumeral rhythm exposes the function of the glenohumeral joint by testing at which degree the scapula activates during an initial abduction of the arm. At 45 degrees, the scapula should engage until the end range motion of abduction.

I'm going with A) Adduction. It's the classic shoulder test, isn't it? Plus, it's more fun to say than 'scapulohumeral.'

D) External rotation is also important to test the scapulohumeral rhythm. It's part of the shoulder's range of motion.

B) Abduction for sure! That's how I always check the scapula-humeral dance moves.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Maybe C) Internal rotation would be a better option? Seems like it could help assess the rhythm.

D) External rotation sounds like the way to go. Gotta get that shoulder moving in all directions.
