Gross Lecture Exam 2 Flashcards
(173 cards)
Three groups of shoulder muscles
- Originate from vertebral column or skull and insert on shoulder girdle or humerus
- Originate thoracic wall insert shoulder girdle or humerus
- originate scapula insert on humerus
Trapezius Origin (4)
EOP
Superior Nuchal line
Ligamentous Nuchae
Spines of thoracic vertebrae
Trapezius Insertion (2)
Clavicle
acromion process and spine of scapula
Trapezius Action (3)
Stabilize Scap
Elevates scapula
adducts scapula
Trapezius nerve supply (sensory and motor)
Sensory: C4 and C5
Motor: Spinal accessory nerve
Characteristics of Trapezius Palsy
deepening of shoulder on affected side
shoulder drops on affected side
Describe clinical test for XI cranial nerve
Spinal Accessory
Shrug shoulder against resistance. Test both sides at same time to check for weakness on one.
Rhomboid Major origin and insertion
Origin: Spine of upper thoracic vertebrae
Insertion: Vertebral border of scapula
Rhomboid Minor origin and insertion
Origin: Spines of lower cervicals and first thoracic
Insertion: Vertebral border of scapula
Levator Scapula Origin and Insertion
O: transverse processes of upper cervicals
I: superior angle of scap
Levator Scapula actions (3)
Elevate scapua
adduct scapula
stabilize scapula
Levator Scapula Nerve Supply and Nerve root
Dorsal scapular nerve (C5)
Describe affects of damage to C5 or levator scapula nerve
Complete adduct scapula difficulty
Scap is slightly further from midline on affected side
Latissimus Dorsi Origin (4)
Spines of lower thoracic and lumbar vertebrae
thoracodorsal fascia
crest of ilium
lower ribs
Latissimus Dorsi Insertion
Intertubercular groove (lesser tubercle) of humerus
Latissimus Dorsi Actions (2)
extends, adducts, and medially rotates humerus
forced expiration
Latissimus Dorsi nerve supply
Thoracodorsal (C6, C7, and C8)
Describe affect of weakness of Latissimus Dorsi
forward displacement of the shoulder
What makes up the lumbar triangle and what is its clinical significance?
Latissimus dorisi, crest of ilium, and external oblique musle.
hernia of posterior abdominal wall may develop here
What makes up the triangle of auscultation?
Latissimus dorsi, Trapezius, and Vertebral border of scap
Serratus anterior origin and insertion
O: Upper ribs
I: Vertebral border of Scapula
Serratus Anterior Actions (3) and Nerve Supply
Prime mover abduction of Scapula
Stabilizes Scap
Forced inspiration only when humerus is abducted
Long Thoracic (C5, C6, and C7)
Describe Long Thoracic Nerve Pulsy
Winging of the Scapula
Difficulty abducting scap and raising arm over head
may have pain around shoulder region
Causes of Long Thoracic Nerve Paulsy (3)
Trauma/Subluxation
Shoulder joint traction injuries
Recumbency for long period time
