Upper limb bones
Axial skeleton
Vertebral column, ribcage, sternum, skull
Appendicular skeleton
Arms and legs, pectoral girdle, pelvic girdle
Sagittal plane
Mostly flexion/extension: hip flexion/extension, torso bending forward
Coronal plane
mostly abduction/adduction: hip abduction/adduction
Transverse plane
Mostly rotation
Scapula movements
Elevation/depression(shrugging shoulders), rotation(putting arm up in the air), protraction/retraction(pushing your shoulders back)
Glenohumeral movements
flexion/extension(lift arm up and out in front), abduction/adduction(only to 90 degrees), lateral/medial rotation(rotate arm away or toward you like opening a door)
Humeroulnar movements
Flexion/extension of elbow
radioulnar and humeroradial movements
Pronation/supination
Radius moves around ulna
2 radioulnar joints, one proximal and one distal
Wrist(radiocarpal) movements
flexion(down)/extension, radial(abduction)/ulnar(adduction) deviation
Fingers(carpometacarpal, metacarpophalangeal, interphalangeal) movements
flexion(bent)/extension, abduction/adduction, opposition(pulling thumb in front of palm)
Radius
On thumb side, radius is rad
When waving, radius is medial and ulna is lateral
Pectoral girdle
Built for mobility as opposed to stability
Attaches upper limb to axial skeleton and provides attachment for muscles
Clavicle and scapula
Clavicle
intramembranous ossification
Acromioclavicular joint - pretty much immovable
Sternoclavicular joint - between sternum and clavicle (moves quite a bit)
Scapula
Between ribs 2-7
Medial, lateral, and superior border
Inferior, superior, and lateral angle
Acromion and coracoid process
Glenohumeral joint - most mobile joint in the body
Humeroulnar
Humerus(trochlea) and ulna(trochlear notch) hinge joint
Flexion/extension
Humeroradial
Humerus (capitulum) and radius(head)
pronation/supination
C1 vertebrae
Atlas
Has atlantooccipital joint connecting to base of skull
C2 vertebrae
Axis
Has atlantoaxial joint
Curvatures of the spine
Primary: Thoracic and sacral kyphoses
Secondary: Cervical and lumbar lordoses
Movements of the spine
Flexion/extension - cervical and lumbar
Lateral bending/flexion - cervical and thoracic
Rotation - cervical and thoracic
Articular disc
Between vertebrae
Has gooey center and cartilagenous region
Herniated disc - gooey center pushed out of disc
Developed partly from notochord
Spina bifida
Vertebral body doesn’t close all the way
Protrusion of meninges, open spinal cord
Costovertebral joint
Head of rib and 1 or 2 vertebral bodies
Costotransverse joint
Tubercle of rib and transverse process of inferior vertebrae
Ribs
1-7 true ribs
8-10 false ribs
11-12 floating ribs
