Q

Fascicles and muscle shapes

A

The strength of a muscle and the direction of its pull are determined partly by the orientation of it’s fascicles.

19
Q

Indirect attachment

A
  1. The muscle ends short of the bone and the gap is bridged by a tendon.
  2. Collagen fibers of the muscle continue into the tendon and into the periosteum.

21
Q

Origin

A

Attachment site to the bone at the stationary end.

22
Q

Insertion

A

Attachment site at its mobile end.

23
Q

Four functional groups of muscles

A

Prime mover (agonist)
Synergist
Antagonist
Fixator

24
Q

Prime mover (agonist)

A

A muscle that produces most of the force during a joint action.

25
Q

Synergist

A

A muscle that aids the prime mover by stabilizing a joint or modifying the direction of the movement.

26
Q

Antagonist

A

A muscle that opposes the prime mover and limits the speed or range of the prime mover.

– Antagonist pairs are needed because a single muscle cannot flex and extend the joint.

27
Q

Fixator

A

A muscle that prevents a bone from moving

28
Q

Intrinsic muscle

A

Muscle with origin and insertion in a particular region.

29
Q

Extrinsic muscle

A

Muscle with the origin in one region and the action and insertion elsewhere.

30
Q

Two types of muscle innervation

A

Spinal nerves

Cranial nerves

31
Q

Spinal nerves

A

From the spinal cord and innervate muscles below the neck.

32
Q

Cranial nerves

A

Arise from the base of the brain and innervate muscles of the head and neck.

33
Q

Seven ways that muscles are named

A 
By the adjacent bone
By the action of the muscle
By the shape of the muscle
By the number of heads
By the location of the muscle
By the size of the muscle
By the origin or insertion of the muscle
34
Q

Muscles of respiration

A

Diaphragm
External intercostals
Internal intercostals

35
Q

Injection sites

A

Deltoid

Gluteus medius

36
Q

Rotator cuff – tendons of

A

Supraspinatous
Infraspinatous
Teres minor
Subscapularis

37
Q

Quadriceps

A

Rectus femoris
Vastus lateralis
Vastus medialis
Vastus intermedius

38
Q

Hamstrings

A

Biceps femoris
Semitendinosus
Semimembranous

39
Q

Calf muscles

A

Gastrocnemius

Soleus

40
Q

Compartment syndrome

A

Inelastic fascia prevents the compartment From expanding with fluid accumulation, obstructing bloodflow by pressure on the arteries.

41
Q

Hernias

A

Viscera protrudes through weak point in the muscle wall.

42
Q

Carpal tunnel syndrome

A

Tingling and muscle weakness in the palm and hand when swelling in carpal tunnel puts pressure on the nerve.

43
Q

Baseball finger

A

A tear in the extension tendons of the fingers from the impact of a baseball with the extended finger.

44
Q

Blockers arm

A

Calcification in the lateral margin of the forearm from repeated impact with opposing players.

45
Q

Charley horse

A

A tear, stiffness and blood clotting in a muscle.

46
Q

Pitcher’s arm

A

Inflammation at the origin of the flexor carpi muscles from hard wrist flexion.

47
Q

Pulled groin

A

Strain in the adductor muscle of the thigh.

48
Q

Pulled hamstrings

A

Strained muscles or a tear in the tendinous origins.

49
Q

Rider’s bones

A

Calcification in the tendons of the adductors muscles of the medial thigh.

50
Q

Rotator cuff injury

A

A tear in the tendon of the rotator cuff muscles.

51
Q

Shin splints

A

Injury with pain in the crural region.

52
Q

Tennis elbow

A

Inflammation at the origin of the extensor Carpi muscles on the lateral epicondyle of the humerus.

53
Q

Tennis leg

A

A partial tear in the lateral origin of the Gastrocnemius muscle.
