Large Intestine Flashcards
(21 cards)
LI-1
On the dorsal aspect of the index finger, on the radial side of the nail, at the junction of lines drawn along the radial border of the nail and the base of the nail, approximately .1 cun from the corner of the nail
LI-2
On the radial border of the index finger, in a depression just distal to the metacarpo-phalangeal joint
LI-3
On the radial side of the index finger, in the substantial depression proximal to the head of the 2nd metacarpal bone
LI-4
On the dorsum of the hand, between the 1st and 2nd metacarpal bones, at the midpoint of the 2nd metacarpal bone, close to its radial border
Location note: ask patient to squeeze the thumb against the base of the Index finger and locate LI-4 at the highest point of the bulge of the muscle and approximately level with the end of the crease
LI-5
Hitchhiker thumb, “anatomical snuff box”
LI-6
3 cun proximal to LI-5 on the line connecting LI-5 with LI-11
LI-7
5 cun proximal to LI-5 on the line connecting LI-5 with LI-11
LI-8
8 cun proximal to LI-5. on the line connecting LI-11 with LI-5
LI-5 TO LI-11 is 12 cun, half is 6 go up 2 cun
LI-9
On the radial side of the forearm, 9 up from LI-5
LI-10
On the radial side of the forearm, 2 cun distal to LI-11, OR 10 cun proximal to LI-5 on the line connecting LI-11 with LI-5
LI-11
At the elbow, midway between LU-5 and the lateral epicondyle of the humerus, at the lateral end of the transverse cubital crease
LI-12
When the elbow is flexed, this point is located in the depression 1 cun proximal and 1 cun lateral to LI-11
Large intestine arm number
3,5,8,9,10
LI-13
On the lateral side of the upper arm, 3 cun proximal to LI-11, on the line connecting LI-11 with LI-15
LI-14
On the lateral side of the upper arm, in the visible and tender depression formed between the distal insertion of the deltoid muscle and the brachialis muscle, approximately 3 5ths of the distance along the line drawn between LI-11 and LI-15
LI-15
In the depression which lies anterior and inferior to the acromion, at the origin of the deltoid muscle.
LI-16
On the upper aspect of the shoulder, in the depression medial to the acromion process and between the lateral extremity of the clavicle and the scapular spine
LI-18
On the lateral side of the neck, level with the tip of the laryngeal prominence, between the sternal and clavicular heads of the sternocleidomastoid muscle
LI-17
On the lateral side of the neck, 1 cun inferior to LI-18, on the posterior border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle
LI-19
Below the lateral margin of the nostril
LI-20
In the naso-labial groove, at the level of the midpoint of the lateral border of the ala nasi
