Lecture 3/4/5 Flashcards
Functions of sternoclavicular joint
sole connection between axial and appendicular shoulder
distribute shock + force
Source of movement for shoulder
stabilization
resistance
Movements of sternoclavicular joint
flexion & extension
Anterior sternoclavicular ligament
assists in posterior motion. Opposite is true for post SCL
Clavicular movement at SC and AC
permits protraction, retraction of scapula and winging of the scapula
Scapulothoracic Joint movement
rotation at this joint of the scapula = essential component of abduction
Scapulohumeral rhythm
Humerus to scapula, total 180°. Humerus moves 2°, scapula moves 1°
Acromioclavicular joint
planar joint
Ligaments: acromioclavicular and coracoacromial
Glenohumeral joint movement
abduction
adduction
flexion
extension
lateral rotation
medial rotation
Glenoid labrum
makes the cavity deeper and allows for more surface area.
also superior, middle, and inferior glenohumeral ligaments help
Ligaments of glenohumeral joint
Glenohumeral ligaments
Coracohumeral
Transverse humeral
Coraco-acromial
Supination movement
posterior & lateral
Pronation movement
anterior and medial. Radius moves OVER ulna
Arteries of upper limb
Subclavian
Axillary
Brachial
Radial
Ulnar
Brachial Plexus Areas
