Q

Name the rotator cuff muscles.

A

Supraspinitus
Infraspinitus
Teres minor
Subscapularis

1
Q

Supraspinitus

A
O:  supraspinous fossa (scapula)
I:  greater tubercle (sup. facet)
A:  abduction of humerus @GH joint 
Nerve: suprascapular nerve
Artery: suprascapular artery
* most commonly injured
2
Q

Infraspinitis

A
O: infrspinous fossa (scapula)
I:  greater tubercle (middle facet)
A: lateral rotation of humerus @ GH joint
Nerve: suprascapular nerve
Artery: suprascapular artery
3
Q

Teres Minor

A

O: superior/middle portion of lateral border (scapula)
I: greater tubercle (inferior facet)
A: later rotation of humerus at GH joint
Nerve: axillary nerve
Artery: circumflex scapular and circumflex humeral
* forms superior border of quadrangle space

4
Q

Subscapularis

A

O: subscapular fossa
I: lesser tubercle
A: medial rotation of humerus at GH joint
Nerve: upper & lower subscapular nerve
Artery: circumflex scapular, dorsal and suprascapular artery

5
Q

Teres Major

A

O: inferior portion of later border (scapula)
I: medial lip of bicipital groove
A: medial rotation, addiction, and extension at GH joint
Nerve: lower subscapular nerves
Artery: circumflex scapular artery.

6
Q

Quadrangular Space.

A

Made of teres minor, teres major, tricep and humerus.

Axillary nerve and posterior circumflex artery travel through.

7
Q

Triangular space

A

Long and lateral head of triceps, teres major.

Contain deep brachial artery and radial nerve.

8
Q

What’s the difference between corocoid, conoid and coronoid?

A

Corocoid: small hook-like structure on the lateral edge of the sup-ant scapula.

Conoid: the cone shaped ligament which connects the clavicle (at the conoid tubercle) and the corocoid process.

Coronoid process (ulna): Muscle attachment for brachialis. Sulky lower lip of proximal end of ulna

9
Q

Palpate and test the supraspinatus.

A

Place hand superior to scapular spine. Cannot palpate portion deep to acromion process. Can feel distal tendon on greater tubercle.

Resisted abduction is scapular plane.

10
Q

Palpate and test the infraspinatus.

A

Inferior to scapular spine. Inferior to delt (which is superficial to lateral half)

Tests by resisted external rotation of scapular plane. (Hornblowers test)

11
Q

Deltoid

A

Origin:
Anterior: clavicle
Middle: acromion
Posterior: scapular spine

Insertion: deltoid tuberosity

Actions:
  Anterior: abduction of humerus
                flexion
                 Medial rotation 
                Horizontal addiction

Middle: abduction

Posterior: abduction
Extension
Lateral rotation
Horizontal addiction

Nerve: axillary

Blood: circumflex humeral

12
Q

Coracobrachialis

A
Origin: coracoid process 
Insertion: medial shaft of humerus
Action: flexion
             Adduction
Nerve: musculocutaneous
Blood: brachial
13
Q

Biceps brachii

A
Origin:
  Long head: supraglenoid tubercle
  Short head: coracoid process
Insertion: radial tuberosity
                Bicipital aponeuroses
Action: shoulder flexion
             Elbow flexion
             Supination 
Nerve: musculocutaneous
Blood: brachial
14
Q

Brachialis

A
Origin: distal anterior humerus
Insertion: ulnar tuberosity
                Coronoid process
Action: elbow flexion
Nerve: musculocutaneous
Blood: brachial
15
Q

Triceps brachii

A
Origin:
  LONG: infraglenoid tubercle 
  LATERAL: prox. half of humerus
  SHORT: distal half of humerus
Insertion: Olecranon process
Action: elbow extension
Nerve: radial
Blood: deep brachial
16
Q

Brachioradialis

A
Origin: lateral supracondylar ridge 
Insertion: radial stylus process
Action: elbow flexion; bringing forearm to neutral after pronation, supination
Nerve: radial
Blood: brachial and radial
