Q

Where is the Perineum located?

A

Between Bony Landmarks

  • Symphysis Pubis
  • The Coccyx
  • Ischial Tuberosities Bilaterally
17
Q

How is the Perineum Divided?

A

Two Triangles

  • Urogenital Triangle
  • Anal Triangle
18
Q

What are the two main muscle groups of the pelvic floor?

A
  • Pelvic Diaphragm

- Perineal Muscles

19
Q

What is the Pelvic Diaphragm composed of? (2)

A
  • Lavator Anni

- Coccygeus

20
Q

What innervates the Pelvic Diaphragm?

A
  • Direct Branches of the Sacral Plexus
21
Q

What is the function of the Pelvic Diaphragm?

A
  • supports the weight of the pelvic viscera
22
Q

What are the openings of the pelvic diaphragm that run on the midline? What do these openings do?

A 
Everyone
- Urethra
- Anal Canal
Females Only
- Vaginal Canal
Openings
- They weaken the support provided by the pelvic diaphragm
23
Q

What is the function of the Perineal Muscles? What innervates them?

A

Function
- Reinforcement of the pelvic diaphragm
Innervation
- Pudendal Nerve

24
Q

What is the Uterine Prolapse?

A
  • Inferior displacement of the uterus through the pelvic diaphragm due to loosening of the pelvic diaphragm muscles which occurs after multiple tears and replacement of muscle fibers with scar tissue.
25
Q

What are the four areas of the shoulder?

A
  • Scapular
  • Pectoral
  • Deltoid
  • Axilla
26
Q

What is the Inguinal Canal?

A
  • Short Oblique Canal Located Parallel and a little above the Medial half of the inguinal ligament.
  • formed by the external, internal, and transversus abdominal muscles.
  • Has two openings known as deep and superficial inguinal rings.
  • Contains the spermatic cord in males and the round ligament of the uterus in females.
27
Q

What is the Rectus Sheath?

A
  • Fibrous sheath formed by the aponeuroses of external, internal, and transverse abdominus muscles
  • Almost completely invests the rectus abdominis muscle
28
Q

What muscles form the rotator Cuff?

A
  • Subscapularis
  • Supraspinatus
