the Elbow Flashcards
AROM
Flexion = 150 Extension = 0 - -5 Pronation = 80-90 supination = 90
Open packed Humeroulnar
70 flexion
open packed Humeroradial
full extension and supination
open packed proximal radioulnar
70 flexion 35 supination
close pack humeroulnar
full extension
close packed humeroradial
90 flexion 5 supination
close packed proximal radioulnar
5 supination 90 flexion
Open kinetic chain motion Humerulner/ humeroradial
Flexion: radius and ulnar roll and glide anterior on humerus
Extension: roll and glide posterior on humerus
open kinetic chain proximal radioulnar
pronation: radius spins medially on ulnar
supination: radius spins laterally on ulna
closed chain motion humerulnar/radial
flexion: roll and glide posterior
Extension: roll and glide anterior
