carpometacarpal joints
carpals + metacarpals
metacarpophalangeal joints
metacarpals + proximal phalanges
proximal interphalangeal joints
proximal phalanges + middle phalanges
distal interphalangeal joints

lumbricals connect
profundus and superficialis tendons on radial side of each digit
lumbrical nerve supply
radial 2 median nerve, ulnar 2 ulnar nerve
label the diagrams of the lumbricals and tendons
done
lumbricals function
flexion of metacarpophalangeal joints, keep interphalangeal joints extended
muscles at base of thumb
thenar eminence
muscles at base of little finger
hypothenar eminence
label the diagrams of the thenar and hypothenar eminence
done
muscles of the thenar eminence, superficial layer
flexor pollicis brevis, abductor pollicis brevis, opponens pollicis
innervation of muscles of thenar eminence, superficial layer
median nerve
muscles of the thenar eminence superficial layer originate at
flexor retinaculum on carpus
flexor pollicis brevis movement
short flexor of thumb
flexor pollicis brevis inserts into
base of proximal phalanx
abductor pollicis brevis movement
short abductor of the thumb
abductor pollicis brevis inserts into
base of proximal phalanx
opponens pollicis movement
brings thumb over palm for opposition
