Question
Answer
Coracobrachialis   Origin: coracoid process of the scapula Insertion: medial shaft of the humerus at about its middle Action: flexes the humerus assists to adduct the humerusNerve: musculocutaneous nerve, C5,6,(C7) Blood: muscular branches of the brachial artery  
🗑
Biceps brachii (Origin, Insertion)   Origin: long head- supraglenoid tubercle and glenohumeral labrum; short head- tip of the coracoid process of the scapula Insertion: radial tuberosity, bicipital aponeurosis  
🗑
Biceps brachii (Action, Innervation)   flexes the forearm at the elbow (when supinated), supinates forearm from neutral, stabilizes anterior aspect of shoulder, flexes shoulder (weak if at all); Nerve: musculocutaneous nerve, C5,6  
🗑
Brachialis   Origin: lower 1/2 of anterior humerus, both intermuscular septa; Insertion: ulnar tuberosity, coronoid process of ulna slightly; Action: elbow flexion (major mover); Nerve: musculocutaneous nerve, C5,6  
🗑
Triceps brachii (Origin)   long head - infraglenoid tubercle of scap, lat head - upp half of post shaft of humerus, and upp pt of lat intermuscular septum, lat head - upper 1/2 of posterior shaft of humerus, dist to rdl groove and both the medial and lateral intermuscular septum  
🗑
Triceps brachii (Insertion)   posterior surface of the olecranon process of the ulna, deep fascia of the antebrachium  
🗑
Triceps brachii (Action)   long - adducts the arm, extends at the shoulder, and a little elbow flexion, lateral - extends the forearm at the elbow, medial - extends the forearm at the elbow  
🗑
Triceps Brachii (Innervation)   radial nerve, C6,7  
🗑
Anconeus (Origin, Insertion)   Origin: posterior surface of the lateral epicondyle of the humerus, Insertion: lateral aspect of olecranon extending to the lateral part of ulnar body  
🗑
Anconeus (Action, Innervation)   Action: extends the forearm at the elbow, supports the elbow when in full extension; Nerve: radial nerve, C7,8  
🗑
Pronator teres (Origin)   Origin humeral head: upper portion of medial epicondyle via the CFT (common flexor tendon) medial brachial intermuscular septum; ulnar head - coronoid process of ulna; antebrachial fascia  
🗑
Pronator teres (Insertion, Action, Innervation)   Insertion: lateral aspect of radius at the middle of the shaft (pronator tuberosity) Action: pronates forearm (during rapid or forced pronation); weakly flexes the elbow; Nerve: median nerve, C6,7  
🗑
Flexor carpi radialis   Origin: medial epicondyle via the CFT (common flexor tendon) antebrachial fascia Insertion: base of the 2nd and sometimes 3rd metacarpals Action: flexes the hand at the wrist radially deviates the wrist may assist to pronate the forearm Nerv  
🗑
Palmaris longus   Origin: medial epicondyle via the CFT (common flexor tendon) antebrachial fascia Insertion: central portion of the flexor retinaculum superficial portion of the palmar aponeurosis Action: flexes the hand at the wrist Nerve: median nerve, C6,7  
🗑
Flexor carpi ulnaris (Origin.Insertion)   Origin: humeral head - medial epicondyle via CFT (common flexor tendon); ulnar head: medial aspect of olecranon proximal 3/5 of dorsal ulnar shaft antebrachial fascia; Insertion: pisiform & hamate bones (via pisohamate ligament) base of 5th metacarpal  
🗑
Flexor Carpi Ulnaris (Action, Innervation)   Action: flexes the hand at the wrist ulnarly deviates the wrist stabilizes wrist to permit powerful thumb motion; Nerve: ulnar nerve, C8,T1  
🗑
Flexor digitorum superficialis (Origin)   Origin: humeral-ulnar head: medial epicondyle via CFT (common flexor tendon), med boarder of base of coronoid process of ulna, med (ulnar) collateral ligament, antebrachial fascia; radial head: oblique line of radius along its upper ant boarder  
🗑
Flexor digitorum superficialis (Insertion, Action, Innervation)   Insertion: both sides of the base of each middle phalanx of the 4 fingers; Action: flexes the proximal and middle phalanges flexes the wrist if fingers are extended; Nerve: median nerve, C7,8,T1  
🗑
Flexor digitorum profundus (Origin,Insertion, Action)   Origin: anterior & medial surface of upper 3/4 ulna adjacent interosseous membrane Insertion: distal phalanx of medial 4 digits (through FDS tunnel) Action: flexes the distal IP joints and in so doing flexes the proximal and middle IP joints  
🗑
Flexor digitorum profundus (Innervation)   Nerve: medial portion - ulnar nerve, C8,T1 lateral portion - anterior interosseous branch of median nerve, C8,T1  
🗑
