locomotor anatomy yr 1 Flashcards
function of upper and lower limbs versus
upper= mobility, manipulation, dexterity lower= stability, weight bearing and locomotion
difference arm and forearm
arm is before the elbow and forearm below
skeleton of the upper limbs
humerus, radius ulna, carpal, metacarpals, phalanges
joints between carpals, metacarpals and phalanges 3
carpometacarpal joints
metacarpophalangeal joint
interphalangeal joints
what type of joints are the shoulder glenohumeral joint, elbow and wrist joint
ball and socket
hinge
ellipsoid
compartments of the arm draw
skin deep fascia anterior flexor component humerus and intermuscular septa posterior extensor component
comparments of the forearm draw
skin deep fascia anterior flexor component posterior extensor component intermuscular septa to radius interosseous membrane between ulna and radius
arteries of the upper limb
subclavian axillary brachial radial ulnar deep palmar arch superficial palmar arch
veins of the upper limb
subclavian axillary and cephalic venae comitantes of brachial artery venae comitantes of accompanying veins median cubital basilic off bracial dorsal venous arch
number of vertebrae and nerves for each spinal level
cervical 7 and 8 thoracic 12 and 12 lumbar 5 and 5 saccral 5 and 5 coocygeal 4 and 1
what is a plexus
complex recombination of axons as they rearrange themselves in passing from one area to another
three main plexus and spinal nerve levels
brachial = c5 to t1 lumbar= l1 to l4 sacral= l4 to s3
draw the brachial plexus
roots, trunks (upper mid low), divisions (lateral, post medial), terminal branches
musculocutaneous axillary median radial ulnar
what do the musculocutaneous, axillary, median radial and ulnar nerve supply
musculocutaneous= all muscles in anterior compartment axillary= shoulder median= most anterior flexors in the forearm and thenar muscles in the hand radial= all muscules in posterior compartment of arm and forearm ulnar= most intrinsic muscles in hand, felxor carpi ulnaris and half of flexor digitorum profundus in forearm
regions of lower limb
gluteal region femoral region knee region leg region foot region ankle talocural region
what type of joints are the hip, knee and ankle talocural joint
ball and socket and hinge and hinge
muscle compartment of the thigh
anterior compartment quadriceps
femur
posterior (hamstrings)
and a medial compartment (hip adductors)
muscle compartment of the leg
4 in anterior
2 in posterior
2 in lateral
anterior (tibalis anterior, extensor digitorum longus, extensor hallucis longus, fibularis tertius) posterior ( gastrocnemius and soleus deep too) lateral compartment ( fibularis longus and fibular brevis)
action of anterior and posterior compartment in thigh
anterior= flexes at hip and extends at knee posterior= extends at hip but flexes at knee (except sartorius flexes at both)
action of anterior and lateral compartment in leg
anterior= dorsiflexion foot lateral= plantarflexion foot
arteries of the leg
femur popliteal fibular/peroneal anterior and posterior tibial dorsalis pedis plantar arch
veins of lower limb
femoral
great saphenous (comes off femoral runs too foot)
popliteal
short saphenous
venae comitantes of posterior and anterior tibilar arteries
dorsal venous arch
nerves of lower limb
sciatic (sacral), femoral (lumbar), obturator nerve (lumbar), tibial nerve (branch of sciatic) and common fibular (branch of sciatic)
what type of joints are the elbow and knee
synovial hinge joints
