Close relationship to ?
Exits neck between ant. / mid. scalene muscles
Deep to pec minor
Close relationship to axillary artery
fill in branches
Brachial Plexus Bullets
What are the preclavicular branches and the corresponding root?
What’s** Erb’s point?**
Medial and lataeral cord terminal branches all?
PAR ‘monic?
Brachial Plexus: Pre-clavicular branches
Branch - Origin- Roots – Motor?
Brachial Plexus: cord branches
what are the 7 cord branches?
origin–roots–motor–sensory
monics to remember?
Remember:
* 1,3,3 & LPM
* ** l(1) P (3) M (3)**
Brachial Plexus: terminal branches
what are the terminal branches?
origin–roots–motor–sensory–major branches
monics to remember?
- ** L
- P
- LM
- M**
- PAR: Posterior Cord: Axillary and Radial
Pre-ganglionic injuries:
location, prognosis, what to look for?
EMG will show?
Post-ganglionic injuries:
location, prognosis, what to look for?
EMG will show?
Upper vs lower vs total plexus injury?
MSK nerve
Roots/cord?
Motor to?
Terminal sensory branch?
Location from coracoid?
At risk for injury?
axillary
Roots/cord?
travels?
anterior branch: anatomic location and motor?
Posterior branch: motor?
Radial nerve
Roots/cord?
Passes through?
Spiral groove around humerus in what direction?
“safe zone” is ?
Pierces intermuscular septum where?
Branches into ? nerves
radial nerve
after injury, whats the first muscle to recover?
radial nerve is reliable found where in relation to the triceps?
Brachioradialis
PIN
supplies?
courses through?
tranlates with?
- supplies wrist, finger, thumb extensors
- courses through supinator muscle
- translates with forearm pronation /
supination
Radial nerve compression: FLEAS
common extensors
* ECRB (often from radial nerve proper, but can be from PIN)
* Extensor digitorum communis (EDC)
* Extensor digiti minimi (EDM)
* Extensor carpi ulnaris (ECU)
deep extensors
* Supinator
* Abductor pollicis longus (APL)
* Extensor pollicus brevis (EPB)
* Extensor pollicus longus (EPL)
* Extensor indicis proprius (EIP)
median nerve
roots/cords?
travels with brachial artery, location to it?
possible sides of compression in the arm?
AIN branches where?
Compression of AIN causes?
median nerve branches
Palmer cutaneous branch arises?
Recurrent motor branch arises?
medin nerve compression
Where does the median and AIN nerve get compressed?
