During the late cocking phase of pitching, decreased shoulder abduction and horizontal adduction angles at shoulder maximum external rotation (MER) contribute to these injuries. The relationship between incorrect shoulder positions at MER and the trunk and pelvic rotation angles at stride foot contact (SFC) during the early cocking phase has been analyzed. However, most studies focus on baseball pitchers rather than QBs.

The hip–shoulder separation angle is the difference between the pelvic and trunk rotation angles, with a positive value indicating trunk rotation toward the throwing side relative to the pelvis. Although PitchAI does not completely match data obtained with a marker-based motion capture system, its validity for trunk and pelvic kinematics is considered sufficient.

There is a paucity of literature focusing on strategies to prevent acromion fracture in patients undergoing reverse shoulder arthroplasty. The goals of the present study were to 1) create a model of weakened acromion bone by uniformly decreasing the bone volume in the acromion encompassing an area that corresponds to a Levy type 2 acromial fracture and 2) biomechanically evaluate a novel method of prophylactic fixation using threaded intramedullary pins.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>Nine matched pairs of female fresh-frozen cadaveric scapulae were tested. After testing the native, intact acromion, a weakened acromion condition was created in the area that corresponded to a Levy type 2 acromial fracture using evenly spaced 1.8 mm drill holes, 2.5 mm apart, parallel to the glenoid line in the acromion. Testing was performed by simulating deltoid load. For the control side of the matched pair, the intact and weakened acromion stiffness was measured under cyclic loading followed by load to failure of the weakened acromion. For the prophylactic fixation study group, after cyclic testing of the intact and weakened acromion condition, two reinforcing 2.4 mm diameter threaded titanium compression pins were inserted. Cyclic loading of the pinned-weakened acromion was performed, followed by load to failure of the pinned-weakened acromion.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>Uniformly drilling cortical drill holes resulted in approximately 50% decreased bone volume, significantly decreased stiffness (<em>P</em> &lt; .05 for control and prophylactic fixation groups), and significantly greater deformation at peak load (<em>P</em> &lt; .05 both groups), indicating a valid model for acromion weakening. Prophylactic fixation with pinning of the weakened acromion resulted in superior biomechanical characteristics, including improved yield displacement (<em>P</em> = .004), yield load (<em>P</em> = .004), energy at yield (<em>P</em> &lt; .001), ultimate displacement (<em>P</em> = .003), and ultimate load (<em>P</em> = .005).</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>Uniformly drilling holes in the area of a Levy type 2 acromion fracture can create sufficient bone volume loss that results in a biomechanically reproducible weakened acromion model.
