Introduction[edit | edit source]
<ref>
tag; name cannot be a simple integer. Use a descriptive title Various studies of the mechanism of the shoulder joint have attempted to describe the global motion capacity of the shoulder and explain the complex interactions between components involved in placing the hand in space.[1] [2] Specifically, the kinematic interaction between the scapula and the humerus was introduced in the 1930s and termed "scapula-humeral rhythm” by Codman.[3]
