Anatomical triangle that contains the carotid artery
Anterior triangle
“carotid” triangle
Boundaries of the triangle of auscultation
- Latissimus dorsi muscle
- Trapezius muscle
- Scapula

Picture
Triangle of auscultation
Significance of triangle of ausculation
Allows for easier listening of the lungs
Thinner area of tissue
Picture
Sternal angle
Significance of the sternal angle
Indicates:
* Level of the 2nd rib
* Meeting point between manubrium & body of sternum
Picture
McBurney’s Point
Significance of McBurney’s point
Indicates where the appendix is located
Pain = issue w/ appendix
Another name for bowel sounds
Borborygmi
Made from vibrations from contractions of muscle in GI tract
How bowel sounds are obtained
Ausculated w/ stethoscope over 4 quadrants of abdomen
Should occur about every 5-10s
Indication of high pitched bowel sounds
Obstruction
High frequency
Indication of lack of bowel sounds
Ischemia, complete obstruction
Low frequency
Picture
Medial bicipital groove
Artery contained in the medial bicipital furrow/groove
Brachial artery
Bewteen biceps & triceps muscles
Picture
Antecubital fossa
Location of antecubital fossa
Anterior part of elbow
What is in the antecubital fossa
Fat
Significance of antecubital fossa
- Anatomical landmark for common procedures
- Contents can become damaged due to trauma (supracondylar fracture of humerus)
Procedures = indentifying brachial pulse, insertion of IV catheter
Picture
Dorsal venous network
Location of dorsal venous network
Veins on pinky side of posterior hand
Significance of dorsal venous network
Used for venipuncture
Picture
- Deltoid
- Gluteus medius muscle (ventrogluteal site)
- Vastus lateralis muscle
Major sites for intramuscular injections
Major sites for intramuscular injections
- Deltoid
- Gluteus medius muscle (ventrogluteal site)
- Vastus lateralis muscle
VLM = more common
Picture
Supracristal line
Location of supracristal line
Across superior border of the iliac crests
Significance of supracristal line
- Landmark for L4 vertebra (inferior to end of spinal cord)
- Used as a guide for lumbar puncture (spinal injection)
Picture
- Adductor longus
- Sartorius
- Inguinal ligament
Muscles that form the femoral triangle
Muscles that form the femoral triangle
- Adductor longus
- Sartorius
- Inguinal ligament
What is contained in the femoral triangle
- Femoral artery
- Femoral vein
- Femoral nerve
Components of blood
- Plasma (55%)
- Formed elements (45%)
Plasma = 90% water, 10% other stuff (PENGWH)
FE = WBCs, RBCs, Platelets
Plasma Components
- Plasma proteins
- Electrolytes
- Nutrients
- Gases
- Waste
- Hormones
PENGWH
Formed Elements
- RBCs
- WBCs
- Platelets
WBCs
- Neutrophils
- Lymphocytes
- Monocytes
- Eosinophils
- Basophils
Hematocrit
Percentage of blood volume that is RBCs
Hematocrit Normal Range
- 42% +/- 5% for females
- 47% +/- 5% for males
Functions of Blood
- Distribution (gases, wastes)
- Regulation (temp, pH)
- Protection (blood loss, preventing infection)
CBC
Complete blood count (checks formed elements, hematocrit, hemoglobin)
Differential WBC count
Separates the WBCs, so you know the numbers/percentages of each
PENGWH
How blood type is determined
If someone has an antigen (located on their RBCs) then their corresponding antibodies will attack them
Clumping = attack happened
Picture
- Type AB
- Type A
- Type B
- Type O
Top to bottom
Type AB Blood
- Expresses A antigen & B antigen
- Makes no antibodies for A or B antigens
Can receive AB, A, B, & O blood
Universal recipient
Type A Blood
- Expresses A antigen
- Makes B antibodies
Can receive A & O blood
Type B Blood
- Expresses B antigen
- Makes A antibodies
Can receive B & O blood
Type O Blood
- Expresses NO antigens
- Makes A & B antibodies
Can receive O blood only
Universal donor
