Surface Anatomy Flashcards
Where is liver biospy performed
7th to 9th intercostal space in the mid axillary
Aspiration of tension pneumothorax
Upper border fo the 3rd rib in the mid clavicular line
Apex beat
left 5th intercostal space in the mid clavicular line
Carotid pulse
Lateral to the groove formed by the trachea and surrounding soft tissue
Posterior tibial artery origin and gives rise to?
From popliteal artery
Gives rise to: medial plantar artery, lateral plantar artery and fibular artery
Pulse of posterior tibial artery
Posterior and inferior to medial malleolus - assess peripheral vascular diseases
What does posterior tibial artery supply
Posterior leg and plantar surface of foot
Anterior tibial artery origin and gives rise to
Arise from popliteal artery and becomes dorsal pedis artery
What does the anterior tibial artery supply
Anterior leg
Where is the dorsalis pedis pulse
Lateral to extensor halluces longus tendon and medial to exentsor digitorum longus
Where does the dorsalis pedis pulse originate and terminate
From anterior tibial artery
Terminates at first intermetatarsal space
Divides into first dorsal metatarsal artery and deep plantar artery
Aortic valve auscultation
Right sternal border 2nd intercostal space
Pulmonary valve auscultation
Left sternal border 2n intercostal sapce
Tricuspid valve auscultation
Left sternal border 4/5th intercostal space
Mitral valve auscultation
Left midclavivular line 5th intercostal space
What is the clinical significance of the anatomical snuffbox
Fall onto outstretched hand -> fracture of the scaphoid -> tender anatomial snuffbox
What is the ulnar border of the anatomical snuff box
Extensor pollicis longus tendon
What is the radial border of the anatomical snuff box
Abductor pollicis longus tendon and extensor policis brevis tendon
What is the proximal border of the anatomical snuff box
Styloid process of the radius
What is the floor of the anatomical snuffbox
Scaphod and trapezium
What is the roof of the anatomical snuff box
Skin
What the origin of the short head of the biceps
Coracoid process of the scapula
What the origin of the long head of the biceps
Supraglenoid tubercle
Where do the biceps insert
Radial tuberosity and bicipital aponeurosis
How to show contraction of biceps
Flexes elbow and shoulder
Where is the insertion of the soleus
Joins with gastroneumius to form the Achilles tendon, which inserts into the psoterior side of the calcaneus bone
What supplies the soleus
Posterior tibial, peroneal and sural areries
Innervated by tibial (S1 and S2)
