The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that scapulohumeral rhythm (SHR) is altered in patients with full-thickness rotator cuff tears due to pain. Fifteen subjects (mean age, 60.2 +/- 8.9 years; mean height, 1.72 +/- 0.10 m; mean weight, 85.43 +/- 18.32 kg) performed humeral elevation in the 3 planes before and after a lidocaine injection. Pain was assessed by use of a visual analog scale, and data were collected with an electromagnetic tracking system. Three-dimensional scapular kinematics (scapulothoracic motion) and glenohumeral elevation were assessed. A linear regression model was used to calculate SHR (ratio of scapulothoracic motion to glenohumeral elevation) for equal phases of elevation (I, II, and III) and lowering (IV, V, and VI). Pain was significantly reduced (P
