25
Primarily ribs 2-6 • Increase the anterior-posterior diameter of the thoracic cavity
Pump handle
26
Lower 6 ribs • Focuses on the middle (lateral) portion of the ribs to increase the lateral diameter of the ribs
Bucket handle
27
Muscles of respiration - rib to rib
Intercostals
28
Primary muscle of inspiration
Diaphragm
29
Pectoralis major origin and insertion
O: clavicular head (medial half of clavicle) Sternal head (superior 6 costal cartilages) I: lateral lip of intertubercular sulcus of humerus
30
Pectoralis major innervation
Lateral and medial pectoral nerves
31
Action of Pectoralis major
Adduct and medially rotate Aid in inspiration
32
Pectoralis minor o and I
3-5 ribs near costal cartilages I: medial border and superior surface of Coracoid proce
33
Pectoralis minor nerve
Medial pectoral nerves (c8, t1)
34
Action of Pectoralis minor
Stabilizes scapula and draws anteriorly and inferiorly
35
Sternocleidomastoid origin and insertion
O- Sternal head: manubrium Clavicular head:medial 1/4 of clavicle I: mastoid process cranium
36
Nerve sternocleidomastoid
Spinal accessory nerve (c11)
37
Action of sternocleidomastoid
Cervical flex ion and contralaterL rotation
38
Scalenes origin and insertion
O: transverse process Insertion: 1st and 3nd ribs
39
Scalenes action
Elevate ribs and aid in inspiration
40
Scalene innervation
Ventral rami c3-c8
41
Intercostal orientation • Anterior to posterior
External intercostal Internal intercostal Intercostal vein, artery, and nerve Innermost intercostal Transversus thoracis or subcostal (depending on location in thoracic cavity)
42
Superior to Inferior (VAN)
• Intercostal Vein • Intercostal Artery • Intercostal Nerve
43
Intercostal arteries come from
Aorta
44
From Descending Aorta:
Pass anteriorly and anastomoses with the internal thoracic Thoracic artery
45
The Subclavian artery comes off the aortic arch and
supplies the internal thoracic artery.
