Popis:	From Sep. 1988 to Jan. 1990, we have treated five cases of athlete, who had the posterior and inferior instability of the shoulder joint, with a Kumamoto University—scapular fixed band (k-s band). K-S band, which is desinged by us, fixes inferior angle and medial border of the scapular to keep stability of it.As a result, we found k-s band to be effective and useful. K-s band has certain limitation of the inferior instability. Athletes don't feel the shoulder pain and apprehension of the posterior instability and can start their training again without delay. But it was not effective in some sports, because it limits ROM (horizontal flexion, and horizontal extension).
