Elbow articulations Flashcards
What are the 3 primary articulations of the elbow jt?
- radiohumeral
- ulnohumeral
- proximal radioulnar
radiohumeral jt: osteokinematic motions
- flexion/extension
- pronation/supination
radiohumeral jt: loose packed position
- full extension
- supination
radiohumeral jt: close packed position
- 90˚ flexion
- 5˚ supination
radiohumeral jt: capsular pattern
- flexion
- extension
- supination
- pronation
