| Glenohumeral Dislocation | dislocation of the ball and socket joint |
| Glenohumeral Instability | chronic shoulder dislocation |
| Glenohumeral joint | Synovial ball and socket joint; |
| Large | loose joint capsule allows a lot of motion |
| Glenohumerol dislocation | MOI is having the arm abducted and externally rotated |

| inferior angle | Where the of the Vertebral Border (Medial) meets the Axillary (lateral) Border of the Scapulas |
| infraspinatus | posterior aspect of the shoulder |
| infraspinous fossa | is the large shallow depression inferior (below) the Spine of the scapula .(Scapula) |
| Latissimus Dorsi | Teres Major |
| multidirectional; could result form bony instability | flat glenoid fossa |
| Rotator Cuff Muscle Test for External Rotation | Rotator Cuff Tests for |
| rotator cuff muscles | supraspinatus |
| Rotator Cuff Strain | effects rotator cuff muscles or tendons - errors in the execution of a throw or swing can contribute to overuse; pain during follow though phase of throwing motion. |
| rotator cuff tear | 2 ways of happening. a single traumatic event or wear and tear. s/s: thinning of muscles around the shoulder. pain when lifting lowering the arm from fully raised position |
| Scapula Motions | Elevation |
| scapular fracture | direct or indirect force; minimal pain |
| Scapulothoracic Joint | Not a true joint; Refers to movement of the scapula relative to the rib cage. |
| shoulder bones | clavicle |
