what are 5 nerves involved in the upper arm
axillary nerve
radial nerve
musculoccutaneous nerve
ulnar nerve median nerve
pectoralis major origin and insertion
o: clavicle (sternal end), sternum, cartilage of ribs 1-7
I; inter tubercular sulcus and greater tubercle of humerus
pectoralis major actions
prime mover of arm flexion, medially rotates and adducts The arm
pectoralis major innervation
pectoral nerve
deltoid origin and insertion
o: clviccl acromion and spine of scapula
I: deltoid tuberosity of the humerus
deltoid actions
prime mover in arm abduction
flexes and medially rotates when anterior fibres contract only
extends and laterally rotates arm when posterior fibres contract only
deltoid innervtion
axillary nerve
