Question | Answer |
---|---|
Where does the musculocutaneous nerve come from | Lateral cord; anterior division of brachial plexus |
What muscles are innervated by the musculocutaneous nerve | Biceps brachii, Brachialis, Coracobrachialis |
Where does the axillary nerve come from | Posterior Cord; posteiror division |
What muscles does the axillary nerve innervate | Deltoid and teres minor |
Where does the radial nerve come from | Posterior cord; posterior division |
What muscles does the radial nerve innervate | All extensors of forearm, wrist and fingers, inculding triceps brachii, brachioradialis and supinator |
What is the segmental origin for the Deltoid | C5 Posterior division |
What is the segmental origin for the Biceps | C5 Anterior division |
Axillary Nerve Segments | C5,6 |
Musculocutaneous nerve segments | C5-7 |
Radial Nerve segmanets | C5-T1 |
Muscles of the Axillary nerve | Deltoid (middle, anterior and posterior), Teres Minor |
Muscles of the Musculocutaneous nerve | Biceps Brachii, Brachialis, Coracobrachialis |
Muscles of the Radial Nerve | Triceps, Anconeus |
Middle Deltoid Nerve/segments, Actions, General Test | -Axillary C5,6 -Abduction of the shoulder -Pressure applied against abduction |
Anterior Deltoid Nerve/segments, Actions, General Test | -Axillary C5,6 -Flexes and when supine medially rotates arm -Pressure applied against flexion |
Posterior Deltoid Nerve/segments, Actions, General Test | -Axillary C5,6 -Extends and when prone laterally rotates the arm -Pressure applied against extension |
Teres Minor Nerve/segments, Actions, General Test | -Axillary C6 -Extends, laterally rotate and weakly adducts -Pressure applied against shoulder extension |
Biceps Brachii Nerve/segments, Actions, General Test | -Musculocutaneous C5,6 -Flexes shoulder, flexes forearm and supinates forearm -pressure applied against flexion of forearm |
Brachialis Nerve/segments, Actions, General Test | -Musculocutaneous C5,6 (sometimes small radial branch) -Primary flexor of forearm at elbow -Pressure applied against flexion of forearm |
Coracobrachialis Nerve/segments, Actions, General Test | -Musculocutaneous C6,7 -flexes and adducts shoulder joint -Pressure applied against flexion at the shoulder, when forearm is supinated and flexed as in hair combing |
Triceps Brachii Nerve/segments, Actions, General Test | -Radial C7,8 -Extends elbow joint. Long head adducts and extends the shoulder -Pressure applied against extension of the forearm |
Anconeus Nerve/segments, Actions, General Test | -Radial Nerve C7,8 -Extends elbow joint -Pressure applied against extension of the forearm |
What are the basic reflexes which evaluate integrity of nerve supply to the elbow | -Biceps relex -Brachioradialis reflex -Triceps reflex |
What segment is the Biceps reflex testing | C5 |
What segment is the Brachioradials reflex testing | C6 |
What segment is the Triceps reflex testing | C7 |
