Shoulder Complex & Elbow Flashcards
Origins, Insertions, Actions of UE mm
Flexors of the shoulder (4)
anterior deltoid, pectoralis major (clavicular head), coracobrachialis, biceps brachii
pectoralis major (clavicular head)
O: medial 1/2 of clavicle
I: lateral lip of biciptal groove
A: flexion of humerus to 90 degrees
N: Lateral and Medial Pectoral (C5, C6, C7, C8, T1)
infraspinatus
O: infraspinous fossa
I: greater tubercle of humerus (middle facet)
A: lateral rotation & extension of shoulder; stabilizes head of humerus in glenoid fossa.
N: Suprascapular (C5, C6)
part of rotator cuff
abductors of shoulder (2)
supraspinatus, middle deltoid
extensors of shoulder (7)
latissimus dorsi, teres major, posterior deltoid, infraspinatus, teres minor, triceps brachii (long head), pectoralis major (sternal head)
adductors of shoulder (5)
pectoralis major as a whole, coracobrachialis, latissimus dorsi, teres major, subscapularis
lateral rotators of shoulder (3)
infraspinatus, teres minor, posterior deltoid
medial rotators of shoulder (5)

elbow flexors (3)
biceps brachii, brachialis, brachioradialis
elbow extensors (2)
triceps brachii, anconeus
coracobrachialis
O: coracoid process
I: middle portion of medial surface of humerus
A: flexion, adduction of humerus
depressors of scapula (2)
