🗑
What type of joint is the elbow joint?   Hinge joint 223  
🗑
What is the movement of the elbow joint?   Flexion and extension 224  
🗑
What ligaments support the humeralulna joint?   Ulna collateral joint(extends form medial epicondyle of humerus to coranoid process of olcraneon) also called triangular collateral joint 225  
🗑
What are the three bands of the ulna collateral ligament (also called medial collateral ligament)?   Anterior cord like band (strongest), posterior fan like band (weakest), intermediate slender oblique band (deepens the socket for the trochlea of the humerus 226  
🗑
What happens if the medial collateral ligament is cut?   Carrying angle increases, and abduction is possible 227  
🗑
Which ligament supports the humeraradial joint?   Radial collateral also called lateral collateral joint 228  
🗑
What is the primary movement of the humeraradial joint?   Rotation-pronation and supination of the forearm 229  
🗑
What happens if the lateral collateral ligament is torn?   Abnormal adduction of the elbow (tennis elbow) 230  
🗑
How can a torn lateral collateral ligament present?   Inflammation of the radial collateral ligament, Inflammation of the bone on which the ligament is inserted, inflammation of the small underlying bursa, or strain of the common extensor tension which is inserted in that area(tendonitis) 231  
🗑
What is the movement of the proximal radialulnar joint?   One degree of freedom: pronation and supination 232  
🗑
Which ligaments support the proximal radialulnar joint?   Anular ligament of the radius and interosseous membrane 233  
🗑
What is the articulation of the elbow joint?   Trochela and capitulum of the humerus articulate with the trochlear notch of the ulna and superior aspect of the head of the radius 234  
🗑
What is the function of the anular ligament?   Holds the head of the radius in the radial notch of the ulna, the interosseous membrane between the ulna and radius divides the forearm into anterior and posterior compartment 235  
🗑
Who is most prone to pulled elbow?   Children, radial head is underdeveloped and can escape from the anular ligament 236  
🗑
What is the function of the humeroulnar joint?   Trochlea rotates on the trochlear notch of the ulna 237  
🗑
The superficial layer of the forearm comes from which aspect of the forearm in general?   Lateral aspect of forearm 238  
🗑
Flexor muscles or the forearm origionate with which aspect of the forearm in general?   Medial aspect of the forearm (medial epicondyle ridge and ulna) 239  
🗑
What does the axillary nerve innervate on the shoulder?   Teres minor and deltoid (supplied skin on deltoid) 240  
🗑
What is the superior and inferior border of the quadrangular space?   Superior: teres minor; inferior: teres major 241  
🗑
What is the superior and inferior border of the triangular space?   Superior: teres minor; inferior: teres major 242  
🗑
What is the shared boundary of the quadrangular and triangular space?   Long head of the triceps brachii (lateral head of triangular space, medial head of the quadrangular space) 243  
🗑
What is the lateral boundary of the quadrangular space?   Surgical neck of the humerus 244  
🗑
What passes through the quadrangular space?   Axillary nerve and posterior humeral circumflex artery 245  
🗑
What passes through the triangular space?   Circumflex scapular artery 246  
🗑
Where are deep veins usually found?   Buried in the muscles 247  
🗑
Where are superficial veins usually found?   Drain from the hand 248  
🗑
What is the path of veins?   Superficial veins drain from the hand, at the level of the forearm the veins drain into cephalic and basalic veins, then median cubital vein at anterior aspect of the elbow (cubital fossa)- basalic and cephalic come up and drain into axillary vein 249  
🗑
Where do all veins from the human upper extremity drain into?   Axillary vein  
🗑
Path of axillary artery?   axillary artery continues until boundary of teres major name changes to brachial arteryàbiracial artery travels on the anterior humerusàaround the area of the cubital fossa it breaks into radial and ulna arteryà  
🗑
Paths of Radial and ulnar arteries?   ulna A splits to common interosseous A which then splits into the ant and post interosseous the position of the split is variable; on the left is the left subclavian comes directly from arch of the aorta there is no brachiocephalic artery on the L side
