Q

How does the position of the limb affect the deltoid?

A

Position of the limb, affect whether with the middle fibres, the anterior and posterior fibres either help or not help with ABD abduction

  • Alone: Middle fibres will ABDuct, and pass imaginary line/15 degree buffer zone with subscapularis firing
  • stationary(behind imaginary line): posterior and anterior fibres with ABDuct
  • already Abducted arm = Anterior and posterior fibres shorten and assist with abduction

-Divides into Anterior Flexor compart. and Posterior Extensor compart.
-Allows for more realestate for muscle to attach to
(e.g. Brachilais = more SA = more Pull on arm

Q

What are important features of the Hands?

A

Dextress =fine motor controls
+ Power = strong grip
Large Movement
Cannot have big bulky muscles on a dextress structure
-therefore the forearm contains the strong power muscles of wrist and hand
-Tendons LONG and OFFSITE
Muscles have to be quite long, shorten 1/3 during contraction
-therefore to have Alot of movement your 1/3 needs to be really big
-Operation offsite/Remote control

52
Q

What occurs at the distal part of the humerus?

A

Establishment of compartments that belong to Forearm
Forearm muscles originate from the arm (sides of elbow/epicondyles), (as anterior and posterior compartment are occupying realestate)
Then their tendons cross the wrist

53
Q

What are the articular surfaces of the elbow?

A

-curved articular surfaces of the elbow
+ their Epicondyles where most of the forearm muscles originate from

54
Q

Where do most of the Forearm muscles originate from?

A

Epicondyles of the condyles of the humerus
-(Forearm muscles originate from the arm (sides of elbow/epicondyles), (as anterior and posterior compartment are occupying realestate)
Then their tendons cross the wrist)

55
Q

What do the forearm muscles act upon?

A

arm and wrist

  • cross 2x joints
  • originate above elbow joint (on epicondyles of humerus)
  • insert below wrist joint, after crossing wrist joint
56

Which muscle is attached to the intermuscular septa?

A

Brachialis

57
Q

What are Biceps Brachialis and Brachialis innervated b?

A

Musculocutaneous nerve

-as Anterior flexor compartment

58
Q

What are extensor Carpi radialis and Brachioradialis innervated by?

A

Radial Nerve

59
Q

What are the 3x Anterior compartments muscles of the arm?

A

Biceps Brachii (2x heads)
Brachialis
Coracobrachialis

60
Q

What is the Poppi muscle?

A

Long head of Biceps Femoris Ruptured
-main stabilise shoulder joint
- Not sesmoid bone
-does have synovial membrane + another tendon ontop
-but Rupturing due to bone movement around it
=Poppi muscle (distinctive buldge)

61
Q

Olecranon

A

Posterior Ulna boney Prominence

  • Insertion of Triceps Brachii
  • allows Extension of Elbow
62

Between Lateral and Medial heads of Triceps Brachii
