Definition
Pinky
Term
Thumb joints
Definition
CMC, MCP, IP
Term
CMC joint of thumb
Definition
carpometacarpal joint, saddle joint, is made up of the carpals (trapezium) bone and articulates with the base of the 5th metacarpal, allows flexion/extension/abd/add/opposition/reposition
Term
MCP joint of the thumb
Definition
metacarpophalengeal joint, hinge joint, is made up of the top of the 5th metacarpal and articulates with the base of the proximal phalange, allows flexion/extension
Term
IP joint of the thumb
Definition
Interphalengeal joint, hinge joint, is made up of both phalanges, allows flexion/extension
Term
Joints of the fingers
Definition
CMC, MCP, PIP, DIP
Term
CMC joint of the fingers
Definition
carpometacarpal joints, synovial joints, stability not mobility, carpals articulate with the metacarpals, accessory motion allows minimal opposition, second and third aren't mobile
Term
MCP joints of the fingers
Definition
metacarpophalangeal joints, condyloid joints, metacarpals articulate with proximal phalangeas, allow abduction and adduction flexion extension and hyper extension
Term
PIP joints of the fingers
Definition
Proximal interphalangeal joints, hinge joints, is made up of proximal and middle phalanges, allow flexion and extension
Term
DIP joints of the thumb
Definition
Distal interphalangeal joints, hinge joints, is made up of middle and distal phalanges, allow flexion and extension
Term
How many metacarpals and phalanges are there? how many phalanges does the thumb have and how many do the fingers have?
Definition
5, 14, 2, 3
Term
Parts of the metacarpals and phalanges
Definition
Base and head
Term
Flexor retinaculum ligament
Definition
spans anterior surface of wrist, runs horizontally, holds tendons close to wrist which prevents tendons from pulling away, Prevents the 2 sides of carpal bones from spreading apart/separating, made up of 2 parts transverse carpal ligament and the palmar carpal ligament
Term
Palmar carpal ligament
Definition
attaches to the styloids of the ulnar and radius and crosses over the flexor muscles, more superficial and proximal
Term
Transverse carpal ligament
Definition
Attaches to carpals and arches over the carpal bones which form a tunnel for nerves and muscles to pass through, more deep and distal
Term
Extensor retinaculum ligament
Definition
stretches across distal portion of hand, holds extensor tendons close to the wrist especially during wrist extension
Term
Extensor expansion ligament
Definition
AKA extensor hood, Flat covering of the heads of the metacarpals (knuckles) (make a fist and extend)
Term
Palmar arches
Definition
Create the cupped shape of a relaxed hand, contribute to functions of grasps
Term
Proximal carpal arch
Definition
Formed by proximal end of the metacarpals (base) and carpal bones and is maintained by the flexor retinaculum.
Term
Distal carpal arch
Definition
Formed by the metacarpal heads
Term
Longitudinal carpal arch
Definition
Begins at the wrist and runs the length of the metacarpals and phalanges for each finger
Term
Anatomical snuffbox
Definition
Depression between thumb extensor muscles
Term
Extensor Digitorum (extrinsic)
Definition
O:Lateral epicondyle
I:Base of distal phalanx of second through fifth digits
A:Extends MCP, PIP, and DIP of fingers
Term
Thenar/Thenar eminence
Definition
Muscles that work to move the thumb
Term
Hypothenar/Hypothenar eminence
Definition
Muscles that work to move the pinky finger
Term
Palm
Definition
Flexors and medial epicondyle
Term
Dorsal
Definition
Extensor and lateral epicondyle
Term
Pathologies
Definition
Wrist fracture, de Quervain's disease, Carpal tunnel syndrome, Trigger finger, Skiers thumb, Game keepers thumb, Dupuytren's contracture
Term
Functional Position
Definition
Where it is most strongest/most optimal grasps
Term
Power grip
Definition
Used when holding/moving something forcefully (lifting weights such as a deadlift), Types= cylindrical, spherical, and hook
Term
Cylindrical grip
Definition
power grip, thumb around (holding a baton or bat), variation is thumb on top (holding a screw driver)
Term
Spherical grip
Definition
power grip, all fingers around (carrying a jar by the lid)
Term
Hook grip
Definition
power grip, hooks fingers minus the thumb (holding a handle to a bag)
Term
Precision grip
Definition
when an object needs to be manipulated (holding a pen), Types=pinch, three-saw chuck, pad-to-side, side-to-side, lumberical
Term
Pinch grip
Definition
precision grip, thumb and 1 finger (index)(picking up a coin)
Term
Three-saw chuck grip
Definition
Precision grip, holding a pencil
Term
Pad-to-side grip
Definition
precision grip, holding car keys on either side
Term
Side-to-side
Definition
precision grip, pen between fingers
Term
Lumberical
Definition
precision grip, holding a plate
Term
Opponens Pollicis
Definition
O:Trapezium and floor of retinaculum
I:First metacarpal
A:Opposes the thumb
Term
