Which joints have no movement?
•Synarthrosis
Three types of joints are?
- Fibrous: sutures, syndesmoses, and gomphoses
- Cartilagenous: synchodroses and syphyses
- Synovial (most joints): joint capsule, hyaline cartilage, some have articular disc, and typically very mobile with synovial fluid in between reducing friction
Which joints have little movement?
•Amphiarthrosis
Which joints have lots of movement? (most synovial joints)
•Diarthrosis
What are the four muscles that make up the Rotator Cuff?
•subscapularis, supraspinatus, infraspinatus, and teres minor
Deltoid
- Proximal: lateral 1/3 of clavicle, acromion, and spine of scapula
- Distal: deltoid tuberosity of humerus
- Actions: flexes, medially rotates, abducts, extends, and laterally rotates humerus
- Innervation: axillary
Teres Major
- Proximal: posterior surface of inferior angle of scapula
- Distal: medial lip of intertubercular (bicipital) groove of humerus
- Actions: adducts and medially rotates (internal rotation) humerus
- Innervation: lower subscapular
What does the transverse ligament of the humerus do?
•hold the biceps tendon in place
Supraspinatus
- Proximal: supraspinous fossa of scapula
- Distal: superior facet of greater tubercle of humerus
- Actions: works with deltoid in abduction of humerus, acts with other rotator cuff muscles in stabilizing shoulder joint
- Innervation: suprascapular
Subscapularis
- Proximal: subscapular fossa (anterior surface of scapula)
- Distal: lesser tubercle of humerus
- Actions: medially rotates and adducts humerus, helps hold humeral head in place
- Innervation: upper and lower subscapular
- largest and strongest rotator cuff muscle
- isolated subscapularis tears are rare, happens in pitchers or traumatic injuries
Infraspinatus
- Proximal: Infraspinous fossa of scapula
- Distal: middle facet of greater tubercle of humerus
- Actions: laterally rotates humerus, helps hold humeral head in place
- Innervation: suprascapular
Teres Minor
- Proximal: middle part of lateral border of scapula
- Distal: inferior facet of greater tubercle of humerus
- Actions: laterally rotates humerus, helps hold humeral head in place
- Innervation: axillary
What area of the back is the easiest to hear lung sounds?
•Triangle of auscultation
Biceps Brachii
•Proximal: long head: supraglenoid tubercle of scapula
short head: coracoid process of scapula
- Distal: radial tuberosity and fascia of forearm via bicipital aponeurosis*
- Actions: supinates forearm, when supine will flex forearm, resists dislocation of shoulder (short head)
- Innervation: musculocutaneous (C5 and C6)
Coracobrachialis
- Proximal: coracoid process of scapula
- Distal: middle 1/3 of medial humeral surface
- Actions: flexes and adducts arm at shoulder joint, resists dislocation of shoulder joint
- Blood supply: brachial artery
- Innervation: musculocutaneous (C5,6,7)
Brachialis
- Proximal: distal 1/2 of anterior surface of humerus
- Distal: coronoid process and tuberosity of ulna
- Actions: flexes forearm at elbow (main flexor*)
- Blood supply: brachial artery
- Innervation: musculocutaneous, lateral portions may receive radial contributions
Anconeus
- Proximal: lateral epicondyle of humerus
- Distal: lateral surface of olecranon, superior part of surface of ulna
- Actions: assists triceps in extension of forearm and stabilizes elbow joint, also abducts ulna during pronation
- Blood supply: deep brachial artery
- Innervation: radial nerve (C7, C8, T1)
Triceps Brachii
•Proximal: long: infragleniod tubercle
lateral: posterior surface of humerus medial: posterior surface of humerus, inferior to radial groove (spiral groove)
- Distal: proximal end of olecranon and fascia of forearm
- Actions: extends forearm at elbow joint, resists dislocation of shoulder joint (long head)
- Blood: deep brachial artery
- Innervation: radial
Boundaries of the Cubital Fossa
- Lateral: brachioradialis
- Medial: proator teres
- Superior: imaginary line between medial and lateral epicondyles of humerus
- Roof: skin, superficial and deep fascia, bicipital aponeurosis
- Floor: supinator and brachialis
Contents of Cubital Fossa
- median nerve
- bifurcation of radial and ulnar arteries
- brachial veins
- tendon of biceps brachii and bicipital aponeurosis
- radial nerve (deep and superficial)
