Elbow, Wrist, Hand Lab Flashcards
Carrying Angles
Purpose
Normal Carrying Angle
Why is female larger than male?
Excessive Cubitus Valgus
Cubitus Varus
Gun Stock Deformity
Ulnar Abduction and Adduction lead to what changes in carrying angle?
Allows forearm and hands to clear hips when swinging during walking
Male: 5 & Female: 10-15
Due to wider hips and narrower shoulder
30
- 5
- 15
Abduction –> Increase CA & Adduction –> Decrease CA
Osteopathic Structural Exam
SD of Extremity usually found where?
SD of Ulnohumeral Joint and Radioulnar Joint
Impaired function of any joint in arm produces what?
Reference point for naming dysfunction?
Minor gliding motions of the joint, not the major motions
SD of the ulnohumeral joint is usually primary and SD of the radioulnar joint is usually secondary
