Term
flexor/anterior compartment
Definition
-biceps brachii

-brachialis
*all flex forearm
*innervated by musculocutaneous
Term
extensor/posterior compartment
Definition
-triceps
-anconeus
Term
biceps brachii origin
Definition
short head: coracoid process
long head: supraglenoid tubrcle
Term
biceps brachii insertion
Definition
radial tuberosity and deep facia of medial forearm
Term
biceps brachii innervation
Definition
musculocutaneous nerve (C5,6)
Term
biceps brachii actions
Definition
supinates forearm and flexes when forearm is supinated
*strongest supinator when elbow is flexed and weakest when elbow is pronated
Term
coracobrachialis origin
Definition
coracoid process
Term
coracobrachialis insertion
Definition
middle 1/3 medial surface humerous
Term
coracobrachialis innervation
Definition
musculocutaneous nerve (C5,6)
Term
coracobrachialis action
Definition
flexion and adduction of the humerous
Term
brachialis origin
Definition
distal half anterior aurface of humerous
Term
brachialis insertion
Definition
coronoid process and ulna tuberosity
Term
brachialis innervation
Definition
musculocutaneous (C5,6)
Term
brachialis action
Definition
1 degree flexor of forearm and is unaffected by shoulder position
Term
triceps origin
Definition
long head: infraglenoid tuberosity of scapula
lateral head: posterior surface shaft of humerus, supior radial groove
medial
Term
triceps insertion
Definition
posterior surface olecranon
Term
triceps insertion
Definition
posterior surface olecranon
Term
triceps innervation
Definition
radial nerve (C6,7,8)
Term
triceps actions
Definition
1 degree extensor forearm, prevents humeral elevation, extends humerus at shoulder, max torque is 90 degree elbow flexion
Term
glenohumeral joint
Definition
*humerous head and scapula's glenoid fossa
*synovial joint
*abduction/adduction/flexion/medial and lateral rotation
*shallow articular surface=increased ROM
*lax and relatively weak ligs
*most support comoes from rotator cuff
*linkage of scapular, clavicular, and humeral movements
Term
muscles of the forearm/antebrachium
Definition
divided into two parts:
flexor- pronator or anterior
extensor- supinator or posterior
Term
antebrachium flexors
Definition

superficial-attach to medial epicondyle, cross elbow joint
flexor carpi radialis, flexor carpi ulnaris, palmaris longus, flexor digitorum superficialis, pronator teres
deep:
flexor digitorum profundus, flexor pollicis longus, pronator quadratus
