ulnar

64
Q

What gives cutaneous sensation to the majority of your palm and your thumb, index, pointer ,and half of your ring finger?

A

median

65
Q

Damage to the radial nerve in the forearm will have primary effects in the (blank) and (Blank)

A 
wrist  (wrist extension)
extensor digitorum (finger extension)
66
Q

Why will you lose grip strength if you mess up your radial nerve?

A

cuz to achieve max grip you wrist needs to be extended, loss of extension-> loss of grip

67
Q

How do you get compartment syndrome?

A

trauma restricts blood flow in a fascial compartment resulting in high pressure and edema and damage to nerves and muscles

68
Q

What does the radial artery come off of?

A

the brachial artery

69
Q

If you tie off the brachial artery below the profunda can you still get flow to your forearm?

A

yes via the profunda brachii which comes of the brachial artery and turns into the radial collateral artery and anastomoses with the radial artery

AND

Via the ulnar artery

70
Q

If you tie off the brachial artery above the profunda can you still get flow between the shoulder and the arm?

A

yes because you the posterior humeral circumflex anastomoses with the profunda which will meet the brachial artery

71
Q

What are the two arches of the hand that allow for collateral flow between the ulnar and radial artery?

A

superificial and deep palmar arches

72
Q

most blood to the digits comes from the (blank) arch except the index finger and thumb.

A

superificial

73
Q

What is this:
motor branch to anterior arm muscles
cutaneous (sensory) branch as lateral cutaneous nerve of forearm (lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve to forearm)

A

musculocutaneous nerve

74
Q

What is this:
Gives off muscular branches to all forearm EXCEPT flexor carpi ulnaris and the medial two heads (little finger and ring finger) of the flexor digitalis profundus which get their innervation for the ulnar

A

median nerve

75
Q

What muscles does the median nerve NOT Innervate in the forearm?

A

median 2 heads of the flexor digitorum profundus and the flexor carpi ulnaris

76
Q

What does the ulnar nerve innervate?

A

the anterior compartment muscles that the median nerve does not innervate (flexor carpis ulnaris, flexor digitorum profundus medial 2 heads pinky and ring finger) AND cutaneous innervation to the hand

77
Q

What comes out around the spiral groove wand innervates the three heads of the triceps?

Q

What allows for the radius to rotate over the ulnar?

A

the interosseus membrane and the proximal and distal radialulnar joint
