Exam 3 Flashcards
Where ulnar nerve becomes impinged
FCU
Greatest valgus laxity
Neutral forearm
Carrying angles for male and female
5 for males
10-15 for females
Factors of carrying angle
Location of trochlea and angle of axis
Close pack position of elbow
Extension
Open pack position of elbow
80 degrees flexion
Close pack position of wrist
Extension
Wrist Movements most important for function
Extension and ulnar deviation
ADL requirement for elbow flexion
100 degrees (30-130)
ADL requirement for pronation and supination
100 degrees
Pronation 50
Supination 50-55
Force dissipation when fall in valgus
Force goes straight to radius because of contact between radial head and capitulum
Force dissipation in varus
Force goes from radius to interosseous membrane to ulna because no contact between radius and capitulum
Max grip of wrist
30 degrees of extension
Volar extrinsic ligaments - radial side
Radioscapholunate, radiolunate, radiocapitate, and radial collateral
Volar extrinsics - ulnar side
Ulnolunate, ulnar collateral, and TFCC
