What plane is elevation of the shoulder girdle?

The plane of elevation of the shoulder girdle is the scapular plane, which is at approximately a 30-degree angle from the frontal plane of the body. This plane is important for proper movement of the shoulder joint and can help reduce impingement and stress on the shoulder muscles and tendons. It is often used as a reference point for exercises and movements involving the shoulder.


What is scapular elevation?

Scapular elevation refers to the upward movement of the shoulder blades (scapulae) towards the ears. This motion is primarily facilitated by muscles such as the trapezius and levator scapulae. Scapular elevation occurs during activities like shrugging the shoulders or raising the arms overhead. It plays a crucial role in shoulder stability and movement.


The shoulder girdle is responsible for which movements of the scapula?

The shoulder girdle is responsible for movements such as protraction, retraction, elevation, depression, and upward and downward rotation of the scapula.

What is frozen shoulder?

When there is inflammation in the subacromial bursa (a part of the shoulder joint), there is pain on elevation of the shoulder above the horizontal. This condition is variously called subacromial bursitis and shoulder impingement syndrome. If this condition is left untreated, eventually scar tissue will form in the shoulder joint. This scar tissue permanently restricts motion of the shoulder. This condition is called adhesive capsulitis, or frozen shoulder. Frozen shoulder is treated conservatively by physical therapy, but if that doesn't work the orthopedist has to do one of 2 things: violently wrench the shoulder to break up the scar tissue, or do surgery to go in and break up the scar tissue.
