quiz #3 - elbow Flashcards
proximal joints
GH joint: head of humerus articulates with glenoid fossa of scapula
distal joints
(elbow)
humeroulnar
humeroradial
proximal radioulnar
-mid radioulnar & distal radioulnar
elbow joint complex - 2 main joints & 1 accessory
humeroulnar (trochlear) joint
humeroradial joint
proximal / superior radioulnar joint
also:
-mid radioulnar joint (interosseous membrane)
-distal/ inferior radioulnar joints (wrist)
humeroulnar (trochlear) joint
ulnar bone articulates with trochlea of humerus
humeroulnar (trochlear) joint - type & movements
synovial, hinge, diarthrosis, uniaxial
flexion & extension
humeroulnar (trochlear) joint - articular surfaces
concave surface of trochlear notch of ulna
convex trochlea of humerus
humeroulnar (trochlear) joint - ligaments
joint capsule
radial/ lateral & ulnar/medial collateral ligaments
pronation / supination
during pronation, radius crosses over ulna
humeroulnar (trochlear) joint - loose packed / resting position
70º elbow flexion
10º supination
humeroulnar (trochlear) joint - closed packed position
extension & supination
humeroulnar (trochlear) joint - capsular pattern of restriction
1: flexion
2: extension
humeroulnar (trochlear) & humeroradial joints - ROM
flexion: 140-150º
extension: 0-10º
supination: 90º
pronation: 80-90º
humeroulnar (trochlear) & humeroradial joints - normal end feels
hard & bony / tissue approximation
humeroulnar (trochlear) & humeroradial joints- abnormal end feels
early spasm: muscle/ ligament tear
late spasm: instability
empty: ligament rupture/ tear
hard: bony approximation (osteophyte)
humeroulnar (trochlear) joint - ROLL & GLIDE
flexion: ROLL = anterior, GLIDE = anterior
extension: ROLL = posterior, GLIDE = posterior
humeroradial joint - type & movements
synovial, hinge, diarthrosis, uniaxial
flexion & extension
humeroradial joint - articular surfaces
concave surface of radial head
convex surface of capitulum of humerus
humeroradial joint - ligaments
joint capsule
radial/ lateral & ulnar/ medial collateral ligaments
humeroradial joint - loose packed / resting position
full extension & full supination
humeroradial joint - close packed position
elbow flexed to 90º
forearm supinated to 5º
humeroradial joint - capsular pattern of restriction
1: flexion
2: extension
3: supination
4: pronation
