Q

Movements of the wrist joint

A

Flexion (more movement occurs at the midcarpal joint than at the wrist)

Extension (more movement occurs at the midcarpal joint)

Abduction (midcarpal joint provides all the carpal movement

Adduction (the wrist joint provides almost all the carpal movements)

Q

what allows opposition of the thumb

A

the carpalmetacarpal joint

19
Q

What makes the carpometacarpal joint of the arm different?

A

Its a synpvoial joint in which trapezium articulates with the base of the first metacarpal

20
Q

Thumb does medial in anatomical position

21
Q

Thumb goes lateral in anatomical position

22
Q

Anterior movement of the thumb

23
Q

Posterior movement of the thumb

24
Q

When you do opposition of the thumb what type of movement are you doing?

A

Abduction and Flexion using the carpal metacarpal joint

25
Abduction and adduction of the digits uses which joints?
metacarpalphalangeal joints
26
Interphalangeal joints allows you to do what?
Flex and extension
27
Anterior nerves of the forearm
Musculocutaneous n. (skin) Median n. (muscles) - main one Ulnar n. (muscles)
28
Muscles of the anterior forearm superficial (lateral to medial)
Origin: medial epicondyle Innervation: median nerve except last one is ulnar nerve ``` Pronator Teres Flexor Carpi radialis Palmaris longus Flexor digitorum superficialis Flexor carpii ulnari ```
29
Muscles of the anterior forearm deep (lateral to medial)
Flexor pollicis longus | Flexor digitorum profundas
30
Pronator teres
Pronates forearm | flexion
31
Flexor carpii radialis
Flexion of the hand | Abduction of hand
32
Palmaris longus
To palmar aponeurosis | Weak flexion of forearm and hand
33
Flexor digitorum superficialis
Flexing of digits Go to middle phalanges of the digits (flex proximal interphalangeal joint) Flexion of the forearm
34
Flexor Carpii Ulnaris
Flexor of the hand | Adduction of hand
35
Flexor pollicis longus
Goes to distal phalanx of the thumb (in humans) | flexion
36
Flexor digitorum profundas
``` digit 2-5 Goes to distal phalynx Flexion Median n. 2/3 Ulnar n. 4/5 Affects distal phalanges ```
37
Pronator
Pronate forearm | Median nerve
38
Muscles of the posterior forearm superficial (lateral to medial)
Come from lateral epicondyle Innervation: radial nerve Brachoradialis Extensor Carpi Radialis longus Extensor carpii radialis brevis Extensor digitorium
39
Brachoradialis
comes from shaft of humerus to radial bone Flexion the forearm
40
Extensor Carpi Radialis longus
Insertion: metacarpal 2 | Abduction
41
Extensor carpii radialis brevis
Insertion: metacarpal 3 | Abduction
42
Extensor digitorium
extend proximal and middle phalanges of the digits
43
Extensor carpi ulnari
Extension of the forearm | Adduction
44
Aconuerus
