What kind of joint is the elbow?
ginglymus
What are the 2 elbow joints?
- Humeroulnar Joint (distal humerus and proximal ulna)
- Radiohumeral Joint (distal humerus and proximal radius)
As the elbow flexes 20 degrees or more, what happens?
its bony stability is unlocked allowing for more side-to-side laxity
T/F: Collateral ligaments prevent/reduce frontal plane motion
True
Elbow flexion
145 degrees
Elbow extension
0 degrees
Elbow hyper extends how many degrees?
10 degrees
Radioulnar joint supination and pronation
70-90 degrees
Carrying angle
when a person is in anatomical position, the normal carrying angle places stress on the medial side of the elbow
Ginglymus joints
Sagittal plane; frontal axis
