Introduction
- Mobility and function of the shoulder may impact performance and injury in volleyball.
- Most previous research identifying humerothoracic (HT), glenohumeral (GH), and scapulothoracic (ST) kinematics is limited through measurements with a goniometer or inclinometer.
Objective
- To identify HT, GH, and/or ST differences between DOM and NDOM shoulders of asymptomatic volleyball players.
Participants
- 22 asymptomatic female NCAA Division II volleyball players from Concordia University St. Paul (CSP)
Methods
- Demographics: age, height, weight, player position, injury history within past 5 years, years of participation
- Screen: ROM, MMT, special tests for radiculopathy, scapular dyskinesis, impingement, and instability
- The G4 electromagnetic motion capture …
