Neurovascular of Anterior Forearm Flashcards
The median nerve enters forearm where
Anterior to Brachial Artery
The median nerve passes
under pronator teres muscle and passes down forearm between FDS and FDP
Which muscle(s) does the median nerve not supply in the anterior forearm?
Flexor carpi ulnaris and medial half of flexor digitorum profundus
Where does median nerve go after carpal tunnel
Just below flexor retinaculum
After passing posterior to medial epicondyle of humerus what happens to ulnar nerve
enters the forearm by passing between the heads of flexor carpi ulnaris muscle.
The ulnar nerve lies medial to
Ulnar artery at level of wrist
The brachial artery exits antecubital fossa and divides into
Radial and Ulnar arteries at neck of radius
In the forearm ulnar artery runs distal with
Ulnar Nerve between Flexor Carpi Ulnaris and Flexor Digitorum Profundus
The brachial artery forms what after running through wrist
Superficial palmar arch
The radial artery initially starts where
Under brachioradialis and over pronator teres and flexor pollicis longus on distal radius
Which artery forms deep palmar arch after running over pronator teres and flexor pollicis longus
Brachial Artery
Which arterial pulse you can feel at the distal third of the forearm medial to the tendon of flexor carpi radialis muscle?
Ulnar
What test can be used to determine the latency of the arteries in the distal forearm
Allen’s Test
