week 2 Flashcards
acromioclavicular joint
- plane-type synovial joint
- connects clavicle and scapula
sternoclavicular joint
- saddle type synovial joint
- functions as ball and socket
- connects the scapula to the thorax via the clavicle
deltoid fascia
- descends from clavicle, acromion, and scapular spine
- continues anteriorly with pectoral fascia and posteriorly with infraspinous fascia
pectoral fascia
- descends from clavicle and sternum, investing pectoralis major
- laterally becomes axillary fascia
axillary fascia
forms floor of axilla
clavipectoral fascia
- descends from clavicle
- encloses subclavius and pectoralis minor
- continues with axillary fascia
innervation of pectoralis major
lateral and medial pectoral nerves
action of pectoralis major
- both heads: addict and medically rotate humerus
- clavicular head: flexion of humerus
- sternocostal head: extension of humerus
innervation of pectoralis minor
medial pectoral nerve
action of pectoralis minor
stabilizes scapula, holding it inferiorily and anteriorly to the thoracic wall
interaction of subclavius
nerve to subclavius
action of subclavius
anchors and depresses clavicle
innervation of serratus anterior
long thoracic nerve
action of serratus anterior
- protraction of scapula
- holds scapula against thoracic wall
- superior rotation of scapula
cord levels of lateral pectoral nerve
c5-c7
cord levels of medial pectoral nerve
c8-t1
cord levels of nerve to subclavius
c5-c6
cord levels of long thoracic nerve
c5-c7
fracture to clavicle - medial
elevated due to sternocleidomastoid
fracture to clavicle - lateral
depressed due to weight of the arm
