Q

Anular ligament

A

wraps around proximal radius

Q

What are the 3x function of Interosseus membrane?

A
  1. Hinge: flexibe hinge. holds radius in relation to ulna (for most of its length) during pronation and supernation -soft to occur - cannot just rely on anular ligament and TFC.
  2. Muscle Attachment
  3. Force transmission. Most force transmitted up to small proximal circular head of radius.1. Radius moves up. 2. Oblique fibres placed unfer tension. 3. Force transmitted down into broad stronger base of ulna at same Proximal end

Carpometacarpal joints

26
Q

What 3x movements occur at the wrist?

A

flexion/extension
abduction/adduction
some rotation

27
Q

What movement occurs at mid-carpal joint

A

flexion/extension

28
Q

What movement occurs at the carpo-metacarpal joint?

A

very little movement -stability and strength

very mobile in thumb

29
Q

What is the location of Flexor Retinaculum in the hand?

A

Medial 1/2-2/3 of wrist
-DOESNT extend to radial edge of wrist
Medially and lateral attachments to carpal bones
Thick Strap = retinaculum
(anterior surface, holds flexing muscles)
2x attachments form the Carpal tunnel/common synovial sheath
-contains Long Flexor tendons
–and stops their bow-stringing
-sometimes long flexor tendon of thumb has its separate synovial sheath
Palmar aponeurosis at distal end of flexor retinaculum. Palmaris tendon goes over flexor retinaculum and then inserts into flexor retinaculum

30
Q

What is the use of the metacarpals?

A

Palmar fleshy part

used to grab things against

31
Q

What is the most fractured carpal bone?

A

Scaphoid

32
Q

What is the name of the proximal and medial carpal bone starting with t?

A

triquetral

33
Q

What is the location of the wrist crease?

A

Between 2x styloid process

34
Q

What is the difference between the tarsal bones of the foot and the carpal bones of the wrist?

A

Foot has 7x Tarsal Bones
Wrist has 8x carpal bones
-adds strength to argument of Pisiform being sesmoid bone

35
Q

What does Hollex mean?

A

Great toe

36
Q

What does Pollex mean?

A

thumb

37
Q

What are 3x examples of paired structures?

A

Pronator/Supernator
Longus/Brevis
Superficial/Profundus

38
Q

What is the origin of Pronator Quadratus?

A

Ulna

  • as it moves its Distal attachment (Radius) over the ulna for Pronation
  • speed and power is aided by Pronator Teres (hence the name) for pronation
39
Q

What other muscle in the forearm aids pronator quadratus with speed and strength of pronation?

A

Pronator Teres
(hence the name)
-Lateral muscle

40
Q

In the 4:1:3 categorisation of your flexor forearm muscles, what are the 4x superficial muscles?

A

Really 3 and 1/2 (Pass Fail Pass Fail)

  1. Pronator Teres
  2. Flexor Carpi Radialis
  3. Palmaris Longus
  4. Flexor Carpi Ulnaris
    - common flexor tendon of humerus has 3 1/2 tendons originating from it (1/2 f.d.superficialis-other half from radius-Intermediate layer)
41
Q

In the 4:1:3 categorisation of your flexor forearm muscles, what are the 1x intermediate muscles?

A

Flexor Digitorum Supericialis

42
Q

In the 4:1:3 categorisation of your flexor forearm muscles, what are the 3x deep muscles?

A
  1. Flexor Pollicis Longus
  2. Pronator Quadratus
  3. Flexor Digitorum Profundus
43
Q

How many muscles originate from the Common Flexor Tendon off the Medial Epicondyle of the humerus?

A

3 and 1/2

  • Palmaris longus
  • Flexor Carpi -Radialis and Ulnaris
  • 1/2 F Digitorum Superficialus (other 1/2 off radial head in intermediate layer)
44
Q

Pronator Teres

A

O: Supracondylar ridge of humerus
2x heads
I: 1/2 way down radius
Boundary of Cubital Fossa
-Median Nerve passes through Pronator Teres
-Medial branch of Ulna nerve runs underneath
-Adds speed and strength to pronation of hand -can aid pronator quadratus pronation

45
Q

Flexor Carpi Radialis

A

Under Flexor Retinalculum
Base of 2nd MT
Radial Nerve runs down it Laterally - you squish inwardsagainst Radial Nerve and Flexor Carpi Radialis when taking wrist pusles

46
Q

What structures do you feel when you’re taking someones pulse at their wrist?

A

Radial Artery which lies Lateral to Flexor Carpi Radialis

-squish inwards and feel both

47
Q

Palmaris Longus

A 
small muscle
Blends with Palmar Aponeurosis
--helps to anchor skin
-so when you're grabbing or swinging something your skin doesnt move too much
-remnant muscle
-missing in 15-20% of people
48
Q

What is the name of the remnant muscle that is missing in 15-20% of people?

A

Palmaris Longus

49
Q

Flexor Carpi Ulnaris

A

Under Flexor Retinaculum
Pisiform + base of 5th MT
LAt –> MEdil = U. Artery –> U. Nerve –> F. Carpi. Ulnaris
-Have to press harder to get Ulnar Artery Pulse

50
Q

Lateral to Medial, what is the relative arrangement of Ulnar Nerve, Ulnar Artery, and Flexor Carpi Ulnaris?

A

Lateral –> Medial
U. Artery - U. NErve - Flexor Carpi Ulnaris
NERVE IS CLOSER TO MUSCLE
-need to press harder to get ulnar pulse

51
Q

Flexor Digitorum Superficialis

A

2x heads:
1x medial epicondyle as part of common flexor tendon)
1x radius (and ulna)
Under Flexor Retinaculum
Base of medial 4 MIDDLE phalanx
-moving INDIVIDUAL digits (Distal IPJ not really doing anything)
-moves 3x: Prox IPJ + MCP + wrist

52
Q

What is the general rule for deeper muscles?

A

Insertions are more distal

53
Q

Flexor Digitorum Profundus

A

Broad Origin: Interosseus membrane –> front of ulna
I: Base of Medial 4x DISTAL Phalanx(deeper muscle= more distal insertion)
FDP Flexes the Distal Phalanx
-LEss control
–normally only use ALL TOGETHER (guitar players exception as can have trained them better to use individually)
-More power (grab something with strength more powerfully)

54
Q

Flexor Pollucis Longus

A

O:front of Radius and Interosseus Membrane
I: Distal phalanx
-thumb needs own STRONG FLEXOR as it OPPOSES all 4x of your fingers

55
Q

What can be a potential problem with having alot of tendons under the flexor retinaculum?

A

Inflammation
