Deltoid
Anatomy
Origin:
• Anterior Deltoid
◦
Anterior border & upper surface of the lateral
third of the clavicle
• Lateral Deltoid
◦
Surface of the lateral third of the clavicle
• Posterior Deltoid
◦
Inferior edge of the spine of the scapula
Insertion:
• Anterior Deltoid
◦
Deltoid tuberosity of the humerus
• Lateral Deltoid
◦
Deltoid tuberosity of the humerous
• Posterior Deltoid
◦
Deltoid tuberosity of the humerus
Major Arteries:
• Primarily posterior circumflex humeral artery
Neural Innervation:
• Axillary nerve (C5-C6)
Physiology
Concentric Functions:
• Anterior Deltoid
◦
Shoulder abduction, flexion, transverse flexion & internal rotation
• Lateral Deltoid
◦
Shoulder Abduction, flexion & transverse abduction
• Posterior Deltoid
◦
Shoulder extension, transverse extension, transverse abduction & external
rotation
Eccentric Functions:
• Anterior Deltoid
◦
Decelerates shoulder extension & external rotation
• Lateral Deltoid
◦
Assists in decelerating shoulder adduction
• Posterior Deltoid
◦
Decelerates shoulder flexion, internal rotation & horizontal adduction
Isometric Function:
• Anterior Deltoid
Assists in dynamically stabilizing the glenohumeral joint during functional
movements & works as a neutralizer during shoulder abduction
• Lateral Deltoid
Assists in dynamically stabilizing the glenohumeral joint during functional
movements
• Posterior Deltoid
Assists in dynamically stabilizing the glenohumeral joint during functional
movements and works as a neutralizer during shoulder abduction
