ITM leg muscle test
ITM-know for final
| question | answer |
|---|---|
| which muscle acts in flexion and adduction of the hip | adductor longus & adductor brevis, pectinius & adductor magnus |
| which muscle inserts on the anterior proximal tibial shaft | semitendinosis |
| which muscle in the quadriceps group crosses both the hip and the knee joint | rectus femoris |
| which muscle inserts on the linea aspera | adductor longus, adductor magnus, adductor brevis |
| vastus is a latin term for | immense |
| which muscle is the most superficial and medial of the adductors | gracilis |
| which muscle forms the medial border of the femoral triangle | adductor longus |
| which muscle is the uppermost of the medial thigh muscle | pectinius |
| which muscle has its origin on the anterior inferior iliac spine | rectus femoris |
| which muscle along with the femoral shaft form the letter V | gracilis |
| which muscle acts in medial rotation of a flexed knee | semimembranosus, biceps femoris |
| the adductor hiatus is an opening formed by the insertions of | adductor magnus |
| which muscle inserts on the head of the fibula and acts in extension of the hip and lateral rotation of the knee | biceps femoris |
| which muscle has its origin on the anterior pubis and inserts between the lesser trochanter and linea aspera of the posterior femur | pectinius |
| which muscle is the deepest quadricep | vastus intermedius |
| which muscle acts in medial rotation of a flexed knee | semimembranosus & gracilis |
| which muscles act in extension of the knee | vastus medialis, vastus intermedius, rectus femoris |
| which muscle is the deepest adductor | adductor magnus |
| which muscle has an emergence of the femoral artery and vein near its insertion | adductor magnus |
| which muscle has its origin on the ischial tuberosity and inserts into the posterior medial tibial condyle | semimembranosus |
| action of biceps femoris (pic) | extension of hip, flexion of knee, lateral rotation of flexed knee |
| action of pectinius (pic) | adduction of femur at hip |
| action of vastus medialis (pic) | extension of knee |
| action of vastus lateralis (pic) | extension of knee |
| action of semitendinosis (pic) | flexion of knee, extension of hip, medial rotation of flexed knee |
| which muscle is know as the "key that unlocks the knee" | popliteus |
| this muscle is the strongest plantar flexor of the ankle | soleus |
| this muscle originates on lateral shaft of the tibia and interosseous membrane, inverts the foot and dorsiflexes the ankle | tibialis anterior |
| which muscle originates on the lateral shaft of the fibula and inserts on the base of the 5th metatarsal | peroneus brevis |
| which is the deeper plantar flexor of the ankle | soleus |
| which muscle originates on the posterior fibula and flexes the great toe | flexor hallucis longus |
| which muscle runs along the sole of the foot to attach to the 1st metatarsal | peroneus longus |
| because of paralysis which muscle causes foot drop | tibialis anterior |
| which muscle originates from the posterior tibia and acts to flex the four lateral toes | flexor digitorum longus |
| which muscle originates on the posterior tibia, fibula, and interosseus membrane and its action is inversion of the foot and plantar flexion of the ankle | tibialis posterior |
| which muscle acts in plantar flexion of the ankle or assists in flexion of the knee | gastrocnemius |
| this muscle functions to place the foot flat on the ground by raising the lateral border | peroneus tertius |
| this muscle has its origin on the lateral epicondyle of the femur and inserts into the calcaneus | plantaris |
| which muscles act in eversion of the foot | peroneus brevis and peroneus longus |
| which muscle originates on the distal fibula and its action is eversion and dorsiflexion of the foot | peroneus tertius |
| to turn the foot outward | eversion |
| to turn the foot inward | inversion |
| helpful when walking on uneven sufaces | the action of the foot evertors |
| plantaris lies between... | gastrocnemius |
| action of extensor hallucis longus (pic) | dorsiflexion of ankle |
| action of gastrocnemius (pic) | plantar flexion of ankle, flexion of knee |
| action of tibialis posterior (pic) | plantar flexion of ankle, inversion of foot |
| action of popliteus (pic) | flexion of knee, unlocks knee in flexed position |
| action of peroneus fibularis longus (pic) | plantar flexion of ankle, eversion of foot |
| deepest muscle at the back of the knee | popliteus |
| derived from the greek word for fibula | peroneus |
