Q

Scaphoid

A
  • one of the small carpals
  • located near the proximal end of the thumb
  • superior to the radius
17
Q

Distal and Proximal Row of carpal bones, lateral to medial

A

DR: Trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, and hamate
PR: Scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum, pisiform

18
Q

Coracoid

A
  • Superior part of the scapula

- Anterior to the acromion

19
Q

Spine

A
  • Scapula

- crosses obliquely the medial four-fifths of the scapula at its superior part

20
Q

Sternoclavicular Joint

A

-The proximal end of the clavicle and the clavicular notch of the manubrium of the sternum

21
Q

Hand

A
  • Carpals: Wrist (8 Bones)
    • Metacarpals: Palm (5 Bones)
    • Phalanges: Fingers (14 Bones)
22
Q

Most common fracture/ break

A

Most people break their scaphoid (end of the radius)

  • Colles Fracture (Most common fracture)
  • Distal end of the radius and the scaphoid bone
23
Q

What kind of joint are the carpals

A

-Sliding Joint

24
Q

The Appendicular Skeleton

A

Made up of 126 Bones

- Limbs (appendages)
- Pectoral Girdle
- Pelvic Girdle
25
Q

Pectoral Girdle

A
  • Composed of two bones
    • Clavicle – collarbone
    • Scapula– Shoulder blade
  • These bones allow the upper limb to have exceptionally free movement
26
Q

Sternal & Acromial Ends (Clavicle)

A
  • Sternal end: medial (towards the middle of the body)

- Acromial end: lateral

27
Q

Axillary Boarder

A

-extends down from the lower margin of the glenoid cavity all the way along the lateral edge of the scapula to the inferior angle
