SI location Flashcards
What is the location of SI2?
when a loose fist is made, the point is on the ulnar end of the crease in front of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the little finger, where the skin changes color.
What is the location of SI1?
on the ulnar side of the little finger, about .1 cun from the corner of the nail
What is the location of SI3?
when a loose fist is made, the point is on the ulnar end of the distal palmar crease, proximal to the 5th metacarpophalangeal joint, at the end of the transverse crease and the junction where the skin changes color
What is the location of SI4?
on the ulnar side of the palm, in the depression between the base of the 5th metacarpal bone and the hamate bone
What is the location of SI5?
at the ulnar end of the transverse crease on the dorsal aspect of the wrist, in the depression between the styloid process of the ulna and the triquetral bone
What is the location of SI6?
dorsal to the head of the ulna, when the palm faces the chest, the point is in the boney cleft on the radial side of the styloid process of the ulna
What is the location of SI7?
on the line joining SI5 and SI8, 5 cun proximal to the dorsal crease of the wrist
What is the location of SI8?
when the elbow is flexed, the point is located in the depression between the olecranon of the ulna and the medial epicondyle of the humerus
What is the location of SI9?
posterior and inferior to the shoulder joint. When the arm is adducted, the point is 1 cun above the posterior end of the axillary fold.
What is the location of SI10?
when the arm is adducted, the point is directly above the posterior end of the axillary fold, in the depression inferior to the scapular spine
What is the location of SI11?
on the scapula, in the depression of the center of the sub-scapular fossa, at the level of the 4th thoracic vertebra.
~find halfway between SI9 & SI10, then halfway between that point and the medial border of the scapula~
What is the location of SI12?
In the center of the supra-scapular fossa, directly above SI11.
What is the location of SI13?
on the medial extremity of the supra-scapular fossa, about midway between SI10 and the spinous process of the 2nd thoracic vertebra.
What is the location of SI14?
3 cun lateral to the T1
What is the location of SI15?
2 cun lateral to C7
