OSMOSIS - Bones, Joints, and Muscle movements of wrist Flashcards
types of wrist joints
radiocarpal joints intercarpal joints carpometacarpal joints intermetacarpal joints metacarpophalangeal joints interphalangeal joints
type of radiocarpal joint
condyloid type
contents of radiocarpal joint
radius
scaphoid
lunate
triquetrum
palmar ligament and dorsal ligament extend from..
from distal radius to the 2 rows of carpal bones
function of palmar ligaments
strengthen joint
supinate forearm
function of dorsal ligament
stabilize joint
follows radius during pronation
contents of ulnar collateral ligament of wrist
radial styloid process
scaphoid bone
muscles of the arm that attach to the wrist
the ones with carpi in the name flexor carpi radialis flexor carpi ulnaris extensor carpi radialis longus, brevis extensor carpi ulnaris
muscles for abduction/radial deviation
flexor carpi radialis
extensor carpi radialis longus
extensor carpi radialis brevis
abductor pollicis longus
muscles for adduction/ulnar deviation
flexor carpi ulnaris
extensor carpi ulnaris
radiocarpal joint blood supply
dorsal carpal and palmar carpal arch from the radial and ulnar artery
hiltons law
nerves that innervate the muscles crossing a joint also innervate that joint
4 groups of intercarpal joints
midcarpal joint
joints between carpal bones in proximal row
pisotriquetral joint
joints between carpal bones in distal row
type of joint in intercarpal joints and their function
plane joints
combined movements augment range of motion
content of 1st carpometacarpal joint
metacarpal bone and trapezium
