25
What's normal flexion range for the GH joint?
160°-180°
26
What's normal extension range for the GH joint?
normal range 0° followed by 50°-60° hyperextension
27
What's normal abduction range for the GH joint?
160°-180°
28
What's the painful arc at the GH joint?
(just the right side of the image; left side is FYI at this point)
29
What's normal adduction range for the GH joint?
45°-75° (some references will end at 0° -- arm at side)
30
What's normal internal rotation range for the GH joint?
60°-100° (100° is the hand on the low back) (no compensation from scaps; e.g. imagine squeezing something between the scap)
31
What's normal external rotation range for the GH joint?
80°-90° (no compensation from scaps; e.g. imagine squeezing something between the scap) (Magee suggests that IR and ER could be performed with the arm abducted to 90° - measure range when the scapula starts to move)
32
What's normal scaption range for the GH joint?
170°-180°
33
What's normal horizontal adduction range for the GH joint?
130° (make sure scapula doesn't move into protraction)
34
What's normal horizontal abduction range for the GH joint?
0° (make sure scapula doesn't move into protraction)
35
