Q

What are the movements of the scapula

A

Protraction - this extends the upper limb, for example, when we stretch out the
arm to push open a door.
Retraction - ‘squaring’ the shoulders
Elevation - shrugging the shoulders
Depression – lowering the shoulders
Rotation - this tilts the glenoid fossa cranially to aid elevation of the upper limb

Q

What is the action of the deltoid?

What do the anterior and posterior fibres of this muscle do?

A

It is a powerful abductor of the shoulder joint. However, deltoid cannot initiate
abduction – another muscle (subscapularis) initiates the first 20 degrees (or so) of abduction before deltoid takes over

the anterior and posterior fibres of deltoid
contribute to flexion and extension of the shoulder, respectively.

Q

Where does the teres major originate and insert?

How does this explain its action

A

Teres major is an interesting muscle as although it arises from the posterior aspect
of the scapula, it inserts onto the anterior aspect of the humerus. This arrangement
explains its action as a medial rotator and adductor of the shoulder joint

Radial nerve

86
Q

Lateral to medial

A 
Supinator (Finishes v short up the arm )
