Specify the anatomy involved in a dislocation of the radius "pulled elbow" and what population this occurs in

Describe hip fractures and identify the bony structures involved

Even though it is called fractured hip it's actually only the femoral neck that's broken. When the femoral neck breaks, the pull of the lower limb muscle causes the leg to rotate laterally and shorten by several inches.

They also experience sensory loss along the medial side of the hand o Midshaft of the humerus: Radial nerve injury, which results in paralysis of extensor muscles of the forearm, wrist, and fingers. The patient also experiences anesthesia (lack of sensation) along the posterior of the arm, the forearm, and the part of the hand normally supplied by this nerve

Describe the location of the brachial plexus and its anatomical relationships to the Neck First Rib Axilla

• It's a network of nerves that supply the upper limb. Its formed by the anterior rami of the spinal nerves C5-T1 • The components of the brachial plexus extend laterally from the neck, pass superior to the first rib, and then continue into the axilla. Each brachial plexus innervates the pectoral girdle and entire upper limb of one side

List the muscles of the thigh that cross two joints and explain how these muscles differ in their actions than muscles that only cross one joint

• Rectus femoris: Crosses both the hip and the knee. • Function: Hip flexion and knee extension. • Semitendinosus and semimembranosus: Crosses both the hip and the knee. • Function: Hip extension and knee flexion • They differ in function because they may have different actions at different joints, a flexor at one joint may be a flexor or extensor at another joint. Taking a two joint muscle out of one of its functions maximizes the muscle's potential when performing the other function. Performing both functions simultaneously weakens the combined effort.
