Q

As the extensor digitorum progression:

5 STEPS

A

1) under extensor retinaculum (synovial sheath)
2) loses sheath distal to the retinaculum
3) then, distal to MCP the ED tendons flatten leading to a dorsal aponeurosis (DA)
4) DA is joined by interossei tendons (prox wing tendon)
5) DA trifurcates just proximal to the PIP

Q

MCP will extend regardless if lumbricals and/or interossei fire…. why????

tension;
ORL;
PIP

40
Q

lumbrical grip

A

ex: reading a newspaper
- flex MCPs
- extend IPs

41

A
interdependent;
extension;
extension;
OR
flexion;
flexion;
42
Q

Active intrinsics on the lateral bands/terminal tendons causes:

A

passive stretching of ORL and DIP extension

43
Q

Intrinsic hand (-)

A

MCP hyperextension with IP flexion

claw hand

44
Q

active or passive PIP full flexion prevents:

A

active DIP extension

45
Q

Dorsal interossei do what movement

A

abduct

46
Q

dorsal interossei _____ MCP when MCP is _____

2 ANSWERS!!!

A

abduct; extended;
OR
flex; flexed

47
Q

Dorsal Interossei allow for the IP extension of what digits

A

2nd, 3rd & 4th

48
Q

how does the 5th digit get abducted? (what muscle)

A

abductor digiti minimi

49
Q

Palmar interossei are responsible for what movement

A

adduction

50
Q

palmar interossei _______ MCP when MPC is _____

2 ANSWERS!!!

A

adduct; extended;
OR
flex; flexed

51
Q

Palmer interossei allow for the IP extension of what digits?

A

2nd, 4th, 5th

not the middle finger

52
Q

why do the palmer interossei have no effected on the middle finger (digit 3)???

A

b/c adduction isn’t needed

all of the fingers go to the middle finger during adduction

53
Q

Lumbricals origin

A

tendon of FDP

54
Q

lumbricals insertion

A

radial side of the distal lateral bands of EM

55
Q

lumbricals attachment to the _______ allow for effective ________

A

distal lateral bands; IP extension

56
Q

lumbricals can _____ MCP but weaker than ______

A

flex;

interossei

57
Q

function of lumbricales is dependent on function of the FDP & ED because:

A

lumbricales attach to FDP & ED tendons – therefore if those muscles are lax than the lumbricles will be wayyy less efficient

58
Q

The FDP can close hand without other musculature, however without _____, there will be uncoordinated finger _____, causing a _________

A

intrinsics;
flexion;
ineffective grasp;

AKA INTRINSIC NEGATIVE (-) HAND

59
Q

Thumb DOF

A

2-3 DOF –

abduction/adduction
axial rotation???

60
Q

saddle joint

61
Q

articulations of the thumb CMC

A

62
Q

A

lax joint capsule with radial, ulnar, velar, & dorsal ligaments

64
Q

1st CMC joint has slips of ______ ligaments to support it volarly & dorsally

A
