The pulse is usually taken on which of the following arteries? a. radial a b. ulnar a c. princeps pollicis a d. median a

a pulse is usually taken at the radial a in the elbow by brachioradialis

Which of the following statements concerning the medial epicondyle of the humerus is INCORRECT? a. the brachial artery divides at this point into the ulnar and radial branches b. the basilic vein lies in closer proximity than the cephalic vein c. it is more prominent than the lateral epicondyle d. it serves as an attachment for many of the wrist flexors e. the ulnar n grooves it posteriorly

a the brachial a divides into the ulnar and radial a more so in the anterior center between medial and lateral epicondyle

Although a number of muscles can have a slight (secondary) action in pronation and supination of the forearm and hand, there are two pronators specifically named, one supinator so identified and a most powerful supinator not bearing that designation, but very obvious when one turns a door knob. The innervation of these muscles involves the a. radial, musculocutaneous, and median n b. radial, musculocutaneous, and ulnar n c. radial and median n d. musculocutaneous and ulnar n e. medial and ulnar n

a, radial, musculocutaneous, and median n Pronators: pronator teres and pronator quadratus (median n) and aconeous (radial n) Supinators: supinator (radial n) and biceps brachii (musculocutaneous n)

Which of the following are innervated solely by the ulnar n? a. adductor pollicis b. abductor pollicis longus c. abductor pollicis brevis d. flexor pollicis brevis e. opponens pollicis

a. adductor pollicis the AbPB, FPB, and OP are part of the thenar compartment, which is one of the main exceptions of the hand that are innervated by the median n. The AbPL is innervated by the radial N, posterior interosseous because it is coming in from the posterior compartment.

The tendons of the flexor digitorum superficialis muscle insert into the a. middle phalanges b. carpal bones c. metacarpal bones d. proximal phalanges e. distal phalanges

a. middle phalanges The FDS has long tendons that pass through the carpal tunnel and cause flexion of proximal and middle phalanges, as well as wrist flexion.

The posterior interosseous artery normally arises directly from the a. common interosseous a b. brachial a c. ulnar a d. radial a e. superior ulnar collateral a

a. wrist drop Wrist drop means an inability to extend the hand at the wrist, and we know that the radial n overwhelmingly innervates the extensors of the wrist. Many of the other muscles of the other answers are innervated by the medial n.

d The ulnar n and a run anteriorly to the carpal tunnel. Only long flexor tendons will run through the carpal tunnel, and the median N which innervates them

Which ONE of the following statements concerning the muscles of the anterior compartment of the forearm is false? a. most originate from the medial epicondyle of the humerus b. they flex the hand at the wrist or flex the digits c. most are innervated by the median n d. most insert at the dorsum of the hand e. they are separated by the muscles of the dorsal/posterior compartment by the interosseous membrane
