superficial and deep back Flashcards
movements of the scapula
elevation depression adduction abduction upward rotation downward rotation
movements of humerus (at glenohumeral joint)
extension flexion abduction adduction lateral rotation medial rotation
functions of extrinsic back muscles
attaches appendicular to axial skeleton
attaches components of the axial skeleton
functions of the intrinsic back muscles
attaches to components of the axial skeleton
extrinsic group back muscles
superficial appendicular muscles
intermediate (respiratory group)
superficial appendicular muscles
1st layer superficial - trapezius and latissimus dorsi
2nd layer deep - rhomboids and levator scapulae
intermediate (respiratory) group muscles
serratus post superior
serratus post inferior
superficial muscles
splenius group
intermediate muscles
erect or spinae muscle group
deep muscles
transversospinales group
deepest muscles
interspinales group
intertrasversarri muscles
extrinsic back muscle/superficial back muscle rests
above/superficial to thoracolumbar fascia
innervation of extrinsic back muscle
ventral rami branches of brachial plexus
blood supply of extrinsic back muscle
branches of the subclavian and axillary artery
function of superficial appendicular muscles
connect axial skeleton to the appendicular skeleton
superficial appendicular muscles primarily move upper limb by
moving the scapula or the humerus
nerve supply of levator scapulae
c3, c4 spinal nerves and dorsal scapular nerve
artery supply of levator scapulae
branches of transverse cervical and ascending cervical artery
nerve supply of trapezius muscle
spinal accessory nerve (cranial nerve 10)
artery supply of trapezius muscle
superficial branch of transverse cervical artery
nerve supply of latissimus dorsi muscle
thoracodorsal nerve
artery supply of latissimus dorsi muscle
thoracodorsal artery
nerve supply of rhomboid minor/major muscle
dorsal scapular nerve
artery supply of rhomboid minor/major muscle
deep branch of transverse cervical or
dorsal scapular artery
superficial respiratory/intermediate extrinsic group muscles positioned
deep to the superficial appendicular group muscles but is still superficial to the thoracolumbar fascia
which muscles do not move humerus or scapula
deep intrinsic muscles/superficial respiratory/intermediate intrinsic group
deep intrinsic muscles serve more of
a sensory role than motor function
what muscles make up superficial respiratory group
serratus posterior superior
serratus posterior inferior
nerve supply of serratus posterior
ventral anterior rami of intercostal nerves
artery supply of serratus posterior
segmental arterial supply from intercostal arteries
function of trapezius
assists in rotation of scapular during abduction of humerus above horizontal
function of lat dorsi
extends, adducts, medially rotates humerus
