What is the Origin of the Scalenes | Trans processes of C3-C7 |
What is the Origin of the Sternocleidomastoid | Superior aspect of the manubrium & medial third of clavicle |
What is the Origin of the Pectoralis Major | Medial half of clavicle, sternum and costal cartilage of ribs 1-6 |
What is the Origin of the Pectoralis Minor | Ribs 3,4 & 5 |
What is the Origin of the Subclavius | First rib |
What is the Origin of the Serratus Anterior | Anterior surfaces of the first upper 8 or 9 ribs |
What is the Origin of the Rectus Abdominus | Pubic crest and the Pubic Symphysis |
What is the Origin of the Internal Obliques | Lateral inguinal ligament, Iliac crest and the thoracolumbar fascia |
What is the Origin of the External Obliques | The lower 8 Ribs |
What is the Origin of the Transverse Abdominals | Lateral Inguinal Ligament, Iliac crest, Thoracolumbar fascia and internal surface of the lower 6 ribs |
What is the Origin of the Diaphragm | Inner surface of the lower 6 ribs, upper 2 or 3 lumbar vertebrae, inner part of xiphoid process |
What is the Insertion of the Scalenes | First and second ribs |
What is the Insertion of the Sternocleidomastoid | Mastoid process |
What is the Insertion of the Pectoralis Major | Crest of greater tubercle of humerus |
What is the Insertion of the Pectoralis Minor | Coracoid Process of Scapula |
What is the Insertion of the Subclavius | Inferior lateral aspect of clavicle |
What is the Insertion of the Serratus Anterior | Anterior surface of medial border of scapula |
What is the Insertion of the Rectus Abdominus | The Costal Cartilage of ribs 5,6 & 7 and xiphoid process |
What is the Insertion of the Internal Obliques | Internal surface of lower 3 ribs, abdominal aponeurosis to linea alba |
What is the Insertion of the External Obliques | Anterior part of iliac crest, abdominal aponeurosis to linea alba |
What is the Insertion of the Transverse Abdominals | Abdominal aponeurosis to linea alba. |
What is the Insertion of the Diaphragm | Central tendon |
What are the actions of the Scalenes | *Lat flex head and neck to same side *Rotate head and neck to opposite side (weak) *Elevate ribs during inhalation *Flex head and neck (ant. only) |
What are the actions of the Sternocleidomastoid | *Lat flex head and neck to same side *Rotate head & neck to opposite side *Bilaterally flex neck |
What are the actions of the Pectoralis Major | ALL – adduct & medially rotate the humerus UPPER – flex and horizontally adduct the humerus LOWER – extend the humerus |
What are the actions of the Pectoralis Minor | *Depress and abduct scapula. *Tilt scapula anteriorly *raises ribs during inspiration |
What are the actions of the Subclavius | *Draw clavicle inferiorly and anteriorly. *Elevate first rib (to assist inhalation) *Stabilize sternoclavicular joint |
What are the actions of the Serratus Anterior | FIXED ORIGIN=abduct and depress scapula & hold medial border of scapula against rib cage FIXED SCAPULA=may act in forced inhalation |
What are the actions of the Rectus Abdominus | Flex vertebral column (lumbar spine) |
What are the actions of the Internal Obliques | UNILATERAL=laterally flex vertebral column to same side. Rotate spine to same side BILATERAL=Flex spine and compress abdominal contents |
What are the actions of the External Obliques | UNILATERAL=Lat flex spine to same side. Rotate spine to opposite side. BILATERAL=flex spine |
What are the actions of the Transverse Abdominals | Compress abdominal contents & stabilise trunk |
What are the actions of the Diaphragm | Draw down the central tendon of diaphragm. Increase volume of thoracic cavity during inhalation |
