Origin-Insertion-Action-Innervation of Hand
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Origin of Flexor pollicis brevis | flexor retinaculum and tubercles of trapezium and scaphoind bones |
Insertion of Flexor pollicis brevis | base of the proximal phalanx of the thumb |
Action of Flexor pollicis brevis | thumb flexion (bending) |
Innervation of Flexor pollicis brevis | recurrent branch of the median nerve (superficial head) and deep branch of ulnar head (deep head) |
Origin of Abductor pollicis brevis | flexor retinaculum and tubercles of trapezium and scaphoind bones |
Insertion of Abductor pollicis brevis | base of the proximal phalanx of the thumb |
Action of Abductor pollicis brevis | thumb abduction (moving away from the hand |
Innervation of Abductor pollicis brevis | recurrent branch of the median nerve |
Origin of opponens pollicis | Flexor retinaculum and tubercle of trapezium and scaphoid bones |
Insertion of opponens pollicis | first metacarpal bone |
Action of opponens pollicis | Recurrent branch of the median nerve |
Innervation of opponens pollicis | Thumb flexion, abduction, and medial rotation resulting in a combined movement called opposition |
Thenar eminence consist of what three muscles | flexor pollicis brevis, abductor pollicis brevis, and the opponens pollicis |
Origin of abductor digit minimi | Pisiform |
Insertion of abductor digit minimi | Base of proximal phalanx of 5th digit |
Action of abductor digit minimi | Abduction of the 5th digit and flexion assistance of the proximal phalanx |
Innervation of abductor digit minimi | Deep branch of ulnar nerve |
Origin of flexor digiti minimi | Hook of hamate and flexor retinaculum |
Insertion of flexor digiti minimi | Base of the proximal phalanx of the 5th digit |
Action of flexor digiti minimi | Flexion of the proximal phalanx of the 5th digit |
Innervation of flexor digiti minimi | Deep branch of ulnar nerve |
mnemonic for the Thenar eminence muscles: APB is A Friend Of Police | Abductor pollicis brevis Adductor pollicis Flexor pollicis brevis Opponens Pollicis |
Hypothenar eminence muscles consists of? | flexor digiti minimi brevis, the abductor digiti minimi brevis, and the opponens digiti minimi |
Origin of the hypothenar | Hook of hamate and flexor retinaculum |
Insertion of the hypothenar | Medial border of 5th metacarpal |
Action of the hypothenar | Opposition of the 5th digit |
Innervation of the hypothenar | Deep branch of ulnar nerve |
Origin of the interossei | Sides of two adjacent metacarpals (dorsal interossei) and palmar surfaces of the 2nd, 4th, 5th metacarpals (palmar interossei) |
Insertion of the interossei | Bases of the proximal phalanges via the extensor expansions of the 2nd to 4th digits (dorsal interossei) and 2nd, 4th, and 5th digits (palmar interossei) |
Action of the interossei | Abduction of the 2nd to 4th digits (dorsal interossei), adduction of the 2nd, 4th, and 5th digits (palmar interossei), assisting the lumbricals in extension |
Innervation of the interossei | Deep branch of ulnar nerve |
Interossei grouped into? | four dorsal and three palmar interossei and are part of the midpalmar group. |
palmar interossei are: | unipennate |
dorsal interossei are: | bipennate |
actions of the interossei is to use the following mnemonic | PAD DAB ('Use your hand to dab with a pad') Palmar interossei - ADduct Dorsal interossei - ABduct |
Origin of Lumbricals | Tendons of the flexor digitorum profundus |
Insertion of Lumbricals | Lateral expansions of the 2nd to 5th digits |
Action of Lumbricals | Flexion of the metacarpophalangeal joints and extension of the interphalangeal joints of the 2nd to 4th digits |
Innervation of Lumbricals | Median nerve (1st and 2nd lumbricals), deep branch of ulnar nerve (3rd and 4th lumbricals) Mnemonic: '1 2 me, 3 4 u' |
mnemonic to help you remember the innervation of the lumbricals | '1 2 me, 3 4 u' (One to me, three for you) First and second lumbricals: median nerve Third and fourth lumbricals: ulnar nerve |
