Q

Describe the humeroulnar joint

A

Proximal humeral trochlea: convex, distal notch is concave. The ulna slides anteriorly with flexion stopped by soft tissue. The ulna slides posteriorly with extension stopped by the olecranon.

Q

Describe the superior and inferior radio ulnar joints

A

Radial notch of the ulna and annular ligament form a concave joint surface. The radial aspect is concave. The articular surface of the radius spins posteriorly during pronation and anteriorly during supination. The concave articular surface of the radius slides anteriorly during pronation and posteriorly during supination

Q

What’s the fulcrum, SA, and MAof elbow flexion

A

Fulcrum: lateral epicondyle of the humerus
SA: proximal, parallel to the midline of the humerus toward the acromion
MA: align with the lateral midline of the radius using the radial head and the styloid

Q

What is normal values for elbow extension

A

It’s the return of elbow flexion so it will be from 0-140. If there is no contracture, not reaching 0: 6-135 degrees or -6 degrees of extension.

Q

What’s the position to measure elbow pronation

A

Sitting, shoulder at the side and elbow at 90 flexion, forearm mideway between pronation and supination, thumb up. Stabilize the distal end of the humerus to prevent internal rotation.

Q

What is the fulcrum, SA. MA of pronation

A

Fulcrum: laterally and proximally to the ulnar styloid process
SA: parallel to the anterior midline of the humerus or perpendicular to the floor.
MA: across the dorsal aspect of the forearm just proximal to the styloid process where the forearm is most level and free of muscle bulk

Q

What is the position for supination

A

Sitting, shoulder at the side and elbow at 90 flexion, forearm mideway between pronation and supination, thumb up. Stabilize the distal end of the humerus to prevent internal rotation.

18
Q

What are the normal values for supination

A

77-82

19
Q

What is the fulcrum, SA and MA of supination

A

Fulcrum: medially and proximally to the ulnar styloid process or perpendicular to the floor.
SA: parallel to the anterior midline of the humerus
MA: across the ventral aspect of the forearm just proximal to the styloid process wheee the forearm is most level and free of muscle bulk.
