L3 Flashcards
Circumduction
Combination of movements including abduction, abduction, flex ion, extension
-windmill motion in shoulder
Shoulder Girdle Joints
Scapulothoracic: scapula and thorax
Acromioclavicular: clavicle and scapula
Sternoclavicular: sternum and clavicle
Glenohumeral Joint: should: humerus and scapula via glenoid fossa
Scapulohumeral Rhythym
Description of how the shoulder complex moves as a whole
Elbow Region Joints
Ulnohumeral: humerus and ulna
Proximal Radioulnar: radius and ulna
-flex, ex, pro, sup
Wrist Joint
Radiocarpal: radius and proximal row of carpals
-flex, ex, radial deviation (lateral bending movement between radius and carpals, and ulnar deviation (medial bending movement between radius and carpals)
Carpometacarpal Joints
Metacarpals and distal row of carpal bones
-opposition -flexion and abduction (tip of thumb to any other fingers)
Metacarpohalangeal Joints
Metacarpals and proximal phalanx - flex, extension, ab and ad
Interphalangeal Joints
Distal, intermediate, and proximal phalanges - flexion and extension
Which joint angle has the largest force output?
Adduction, then Extension, then Flexion, then Abduction
Original and Insertion
Origin: the attachment site that is typically proximal
Insertion: attachment site that is typically distal
Rotator Cuff Muscles
Supraspinatus (top of spine), Infraspinatus (behind delt), Teres minor (underneath infra), Teres major (right behind tricep)
