Week 8-11 - Upper Limb Flashcards
What is the only bony attachement between the trunk and the upper limb
The Clavicle
What is found at the most superior end of the spine of the scaula
Acromonium
What are the main movements of the scapula
Elevation, depression, rotation, retraction, protraction
What is the joint between the sternum and clavicle
Sternoclavicular joint
What is the space inbetween the tubercles on the humerus called
Intertubercular groove
Why is the glenohumeral joint so unstable
Because the head of the humerus is so big compared to the facet of the glenoid cavity
How much stability does the labrum provide
20%
What type of joint is the glenohumeral joint
Ball and socket
What is stability of the joint also stabilised by
Muscles that attach from the scapula to the humerus
Origin of the trapezius
Spine
Innervation of the trapezius
C3 C4
Insertion of the trapezius
Clavicle and spine of the scapula
Movements the trapezius
Depress, retract or rotate the scapula
What are the three bands of the deltoids
Anterior, posterior and lateral fibres
Movement acheived by the anterior fibrers
Flexes and medially rotates the arm
Movement achieved by the posterior fibres
Extends and laterally rotates the arm
Movement achieved by the lateral fibres
Abducts the arm
Innervation of the deltoids
Auxillary nerve from C5, C6
Origins of the deltoids
Lateral end of the clavicle, acromion, spine of the scapula

Bicipital groove of the humerus
Movements of the lat. dorsi
Adducts, extends and internally rotates the arm at the shoulder
Innervation of the lat. dorsi
Thoraedorsal nerve (C6-8)
Origins from the levator scapulae
Posterior tubercule transverse process of C1-C4
Insertions of the leavtor scapulae
Medial border of the scapula
Movements of the levator scapulae
Elevation of the scapula
Innervation of the levator scapulae
Fourth and 5th cervical nerves
Origin of the pec major
Anterior surface of the sternal angle and 1/2 of the clavicle

Lateral lip of the bicipital groove
Movements of the pec major
Flexion of the humerus, aducts the humerus, medial rotation of the humerus - attachment of the trunk to the arm
Innervations of the pec major
Many cervical nerves of the spine
Origins of the pec minor
From the ribs
Innervatios of the pec minor
Median pectoral nerve
Insertion of the pec minor
On the coracoid process
