The Shoulder Joint TEST MONDAY
Anterior Shoulder Muscles Coracobrachialis Pectoralis Major Subscapularis Biceps Brachii
Biceps Brachii Origin Short head: coracoid process of scapula Long head: supraglenoid tubercle of scapula Insertion Tuberosity of radius Action Flexion of the elbow and shoulder, Supinates forearm ***the long head is the “5th rotator cuff”
Coracobrachialis O: Coracoid process I: Anteromedial surface of midshaft of humerus Actions: (WEAK!) Flexion Adduction of the shoulder
Pectoralis Major Origin: Insertion: intertubercular groove Actions Medial two-thirds of clavicle Sternum Insertion: intertubercular groove Actions Upper fibers (Clavicular) Flexion Horizontal Adduction Lower fibers (Sternal) Internal/medial Rotation Horizontal adduction
Subscapularis O: Subscapular fossa I: Lesser tubercle and crest of humerus Actions: Internal Rotation Stabilization Anterior Rotator Cuff Muscle.
Superior Shoulder Muscles Deltoid Supraspinatus
Deltoid Origin Insertion – deltoid tuberosity Actions Lateral 1/3 of clavicle (Anterior fibers) Acromion process (Middle fibers) Spine of scapula (Posterior fibers) Insertion – deltoid tuberosity Actions Anterior –Flexion Middle – Abduction Posterior –Extension
Supraspinatus O: Supraspinous fossa I: Greater tubercle Action: Abduction Stabilization Superior Rotator Cuff Muscle. Most injured rotator cuff muscle
Inferior Shoulder Muscles Latissimus Dorsi Teres Major
Latissimus Dorsi O: Spinous process of lower 6 thorasic and all lumbar and sacral vertebrae; iliac crest I: Intertubercular groove Actions: Adduction Internal Rotation
Teres Major O: Inferior angle of scapula I: Intertubercular groove Actions: Adduction Internal rotation “Lats little helper”
Posterior Shoulder Muscles Infraspinatus Teres Minor Triceps Brachii
Triceps Brachii Origin Long head: infraglenoid tubercle of scapula Lateral head: posterior surface of humerus, Medial head: posterior surface of humerus, Insertion Olecranon process of ulna Action Chief extensor of elbow (long head extends the shoulder)
Infraspinatus O: Infraspinous fossa I: Greater tubercle Actions: External rotation Stabilization Posterior Rotator Cuff Muscle Second most commonly injured rotator cuff muscle
Teres Minor O: lateral border of scapula I: Greater tubercle Actions: External rotation Stabilization Posterior Rotator Cuff Muscle
Muscles of the scapula only
Trapezius Origin occipital bone, nuchal ligament, and spinous processes of C7 - T12 vertebrae Insertion Lateral third of clavicle, acromion, and spine of scapula Action superior fibers elevate, middle fibers retract, inferior fibers depress scapula;
Levator Scapula Origin C1 - C4 vertebrae Insertion Superior angle Action Elevates scapula
Rhomboid major and minor
Rhomboid major and minor Origin Minor: spinous processes of C7 and T1 vertebrae Major: spinous processes of T2 - T5 vertebrae Insertion Medial border of scapula Action Retract scapula
Serratus Anterior Origin the eight upper frontal ribs Insertion lateral border of scapula Action protracts scapula
