Sample Question 1
What are the movements of the scapula?

Abduction(Protraction), Adduction(retraction), Downward Rotation, Upward Rotation, Elevation and Depression.

Flexion, Extension, Circumduction

Pronation, Supination, Opposition

Inversion, Eversion, Dorsiflexion

Sample Question 2
What is Lateral Tilt? When does it occur?

Happens during abduction, scapula rotates about its vertical axis resulting in posterior movement of medial border adn anterior mocement of lateral border

Occurs during flexion, scapula rotates about its sagittal plane resulting in lateral movement of medial border and medial movement of lateral border.

Occurs during adduction, scapula rotates about its horizontal axis resulting in anterior movement of medial border and posterior movement of lateral border.

Occurs during extension, scapula rotates about its frontal plane resulting in upward movement of medial border and downward movement of lateral border.

Sample Question 3
What is Medial Tilt? When does it occur?

During internal rotation. The scapula elevates and protracts, resulting in a superiorly tilted position.

During extreme adduction. The scapula rotates about its vertical axis resulting in anterior movement of medial border adn posterior movement of lateral border.

During extreme abduction. The scapula rotates about its horizontal axis resulting in posterior movement of medial border and anterior movement of lateral border.

During shoulder flexion. The scapula depresses and retracts, resulting in a downward tilt.
