what are the side effects of a sensory nerve injury
sensory and motor deficits
loss of lateral key pinch
it will effect the Interossei muscles, adductor policis, lumbricals of 4th and 5th digit

what is the flexor retinaculum
it holds the tendons close to wrist, prevents carpal bones from spreading

what is the transverse carpal ligament
arches over carpal bones
prevents tendons from pulling away ( bowstringing) from carpals

what is carpal tunnel syndrome
when there’s increased pressure in the carpal tunnel
decreases blood flow to small arteries that supply median nerve


what is palmar aponeurosis, and what do synovial sheaths do
thick layer of facia over your palm
maintains positions for flexor tendons
(synovial sheaths lubricate tendons and reduce friction )

dupuytren contracture
abnormal thickening of palmar aponeurosis
causing contracture of small and ring fingers
(surgical procedure »fasciotomy)

what is the extensor retinaculum
holds tendons to wrist
(splits tendons into 6 compartments)

what is De Quervains Tenosynovitis
“texting thumb”
affecting the tendons on the thumb side of your wrist.
Caused by repetitive gripping, typing, or lifting (like carrying a baby), common in new mothers

flexor pollicis brevis
flexor pollicis longus

which muscles are involved in Thumb MCP,IP flexion and extension - ex: texting
flexor pollicis longus and brevis
adductor pollicis
palmar interossei contribute
which muscles are involved in opposite
opponens pollicis
flexor pollicis brevis
abductor pollicis brevis

what is dynamometry
used to asses grip and pinch strength

what does the ulnar aspect of wh
