Abstract(s)

The shoulder complex joint is an extremely mobile joint and its stability is guaranteed mainly by the glenohumeral and scapular muscles. The recruitment patterns of these muscles play an important role in the coordination of scapular motion during humeral elevation. Some studies report that the muscles recruitment patterns are altered in the presence of pain. To analyze the muscle activation timings and the recruitment temporal sequence of the shoulder complex muscles during shoulder elevation in the scapular plane, in subjects with and without previous history of shoulder pain.
