11/7 Flashcards
1
Q
Sacrohumeral muscles
A
1. Deltoid- O: Anterior- lateral third of clavicle Middle- acromion of scapula Posterior- spine of scapula I: deltoid tuberosity of humerus A: major abductor of the shoulder, anterior flexes, posterior extends N: Axillary (C5-C6)
SITS
- Supraspinatus-
O: supraspinous fossa
I: superior facet of greater tubercle of humerus
A: initiates abduction of the arm (helps deltoid)
N: suprascapular (C5-C6) - Infraspinatus-
O: infraspinous fossa
I: middle facet of greater tubercle of humerus
A: lateral (external) rotation of shoulder
N: suprascapular (C5-C6)
4. Teres Minor- O: lateral border of scapula I: inferior facet of greater tubercle of humerus A: external rotation of shoulder N: axillary (C5-C6)
5. Subscapularis- O: subscapular fossa I: lesser tubercle of humerus A: internally (medially) rotate shoulder N: upper and lower subscapular nerve (C5-C6)
- Teres Major-
O: inferior angle of scapula
I: intertubercular sulcus (bicipital groove) of humerus
A: internal rotation, adduction, shoulder extension
N: lower subscapular nerve (C5-C6)
2
Q
Posterior Compartment of the Arm
A
- Triceps brachii-
O: Long head- infraglenoid tubercle
Lateral head- posterior numeral shaft, above radial groove
Medial head- posterior numeral shaft, below radial groove
I: olecranon of ulna
A: elbow extension, long does extension/adduction of shoulder, lateral recruited primarily against resistance
N: radial nerve (C5-T1)
2. Anconeus- O: lateral epicondyle of humerus I: olecranon A: assists triceps brachii N: radial nerve (C5-T1)
