Acu Anatomy- Week 1
Aanatomy of Upper Extremities Points 1-36
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| With the upper arm abducted, in the center of the axilla, medial side of axillary artery | HT-1 |
| Beware axillary artery!! Tip: Use one finger to find the axillary A., then insert needle JUST MEDIAL and POSTERIOR to it. | HT-1 |
| First dimple (more anterior) of the two on shoulder when arm is abducted at shoulder height. "Antero-inferior to acromion, upper portion of m. deltoideus." | LI-15 |
| Second dimple (more posterior) of the two on shoulder when arm is abducted at shoulder height. "With arm abducted, poster and inferior to acromion, in depression about 1 cun posterior to LI-15." | SJ-14 |
| On a line connecting LI-11 and LI-15, 3 cun above LI-11. "Superior to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus." | LI-13 |
| Avoid puncturing Radial (collateral) artery | LI-13 |
| (With elbow flexed,) in depression 1 cun superior to olecranon | SJ-10 |
| Cubital crease, radial (lateral) side of tendon of biceps brachii. HAND OPEN and elbow slightly flexed. SLIGHTLY LATERAL to the tendon rather than immediately adjacent to it. | LU-5 |
| Cubital crease: in depression between MEDIAL end of TCC and MEDIAL epicondyle of humerus-- with elbow flexed into right angle. | HT-3 |
| On transverse cubital crease, ULNAR SIDE of m. bicpes brachii | PC-3 |
| Avoid puncturing brachial artery | PC-3 |
| With elbow flexed, in depression between olecranon of ulna and medial epicondyle of humerus. | SI-8 |
| Palmar (radial/flexor) aspect of forearm, on LU-5 (cubital crease)-LU-9 (wrist crease) line, 7 cun above the transverse crease of the wrist. THERE IS A PALPABLE DEPRESSION. (This point often bleeds.) | LU-6 |
| 5 cun (2-1-2) above transverse crease of the wrist, on the PC3-PC7 line, between tendons of palmaris longus and flexor carpi radialis. | PC-4 |
| 3 cun (2-1) above the transverse crease of the wrist, between tendons of palmaris longus and flexor carpi radialis. | PC-5 |
| 3 cun above SJ-4, between radius and ulna, on the radial side of extensor digitorum. | SJ-6 |
| AVOID puncturing RADIAL NERVE. | LU-5 |
| Do not puncture radial nerve. | LI-11 |
| Musculature: Brachioradialis, Flexor carpi radialis, Pronator teres, Extensor carpi radialis brevis & longus | LU-6 |
| The two points were admonition is "Beware Radial Nerve" | LI-11 (which doesn't seem to be much of a risk) and LU-5 |
| Three points on "medial" (ventral/yin) cubital crease-- and their anatomical descriptions. | From inside to out HT-3 ("Depression between medial end of TCC and medial epicondyle of humerus"), PC-3 (TCC, ulnar side of mBB), LU-5 (TCC, radial side of mBB- slightly LATERAL to tendon). |
| Three points on "lateral" (dorsal/yang) cubital crease area (give or take)-- and their anatomical descriptions. | LI-11 (Depression at LATERAL end of TCC, "midway between LU-5 and the lateral epicondyle of humerus"), SI-8 (with elbow flexed, "depression between olecranon (of ulna) and medial epicondyle of humerus"), SJ-10 ("1 cun superior to olecranon") |
| Bone for HT-1 | Humerus |
| Bone for LI-15 | (Greater tuberosity of ) humerus |
| Bone for SJ-14 | Humerus |
| Bone for LI-13 | (Lateral) humerus |
| Bone for SJ-10 | OP of ulna |
| Bones for LI-11 | Radius (really?? I suppose it is the head of radius-- just like LU-5?), humerus |
| Bones for LU-5 | Radius (head of) and humerus |
| Bone for HT-3 | Humerus |
| Bone for PC-3 | Humerus |
| Bones for SI-8 | Ulna and humerus |
| Bone for LU-6 | Radius |
| Bones for PC-4 | Radius, ulna |
| Bones for PC-5 | Radius, ulna |
| Bones for SJ-6 | Radius, ulna |
| Muscles for HT-1 | Deep fascia, latsissimus, teres major |
| Muscles for LI-15 | Deltoid (duh), plus: "bursae" AND "tendon of supraspinaus" |
| Muscles for SJ-14 | (Posterior) deltoid (duh), teres minor, teres major, latsissimus |
| Muscle for LI-13 | Brachialis!!!!!!!! |
| Muscle (tendon actually) for SJ-10 | Tendon of triceps brachii |
| Muscles for LI-11 | Extensor carpi radialis LONGUS & BREVIS; brachioradialis |
| Muscles (plus tendon and an aponeurosis...) for LU-5 | Tendon of biceps brachii, bicipital aponeurosis, brachioradialis, brachialis |
| Muscles for HT-3 | Pronator teres, brachialis |
| Muscles (and tendon) for PC-3 | Tendon of biceps brachii, m. brachii, m. brachialis |
| Muscles for SI-8 | (Same as PC-3?? Tendon of biceps brachii, m. brachii, m. brachialis) |
| Muscles for LU-6 | Brachioradialis, Flexor carpi radialis, Pronator teress, Extensor carpi radialis BREVIS & LONGUS |
| Muscles for PC-4 | Flexor carpi radialis, m. flexor digitorum superficialis & profundus, palmar side of anterior interosseus membrane |
| Muscles for PC-5 | Tendons of flexor carpi radialis and palmaris longus m. flexor digitorum superficialis and profundus, pronator quadratus m. anterior interosseous membrane |
| Muscles for SJ-6 | Extensor digiti minimi, extensor pollicis longus, anterior interosseous membrane |
