Flexion/extension
abduction/adduction
At the metacarpal phalangeal joint what movement occurs?
Internal rotation
True/False Metacarpals and carpals have very little movement.
True
Where is a common site for osteoarthritis in the hand?
1st carpometacarpal joint of hand
Name the motions of the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb.
Flexion/Extension
Abduction/Adduction

______(Smith's/Colles') fracture occurs after a flexion of the wrist and fractures the radius.
Smith's
_____ (Smith's/Colles') fracture occurs after extension of the wrist and fractures the radius.
Colles'
True/False Smith's fracture is more common that Colles' fracture.
False
_______ cyst occurs when there is an outgrowth of the tendon sheath or capsule of the joint. Not sure of the cause and occurs frequently in gymnasts because of constant pressure across wrist joint.
Ganglion
What is a procedure done to treat ganglion cysts?
Aspiration, in which a needle is stuck in the cyst and removes fluid
___ ________ disease is inflammation of the tendon that extends the wrist.
De Quervain's
Dupuytren's _______ is when tissues in the 4th and 5th digits accumulate and create a knot. It is most common in males of European descent. Similar conditions that commonly occur at the same time are liter hose condition in the foot and pyrones disease in the penis.
Contracture
True/False Dupuytren's contracture is thought to be an autoimmune disease since variations of it occur in different parts of the body.
True
Stenosing Tenosynovitis occurs when a ______ in the finger becomes swollen. It is also referred to as trigger finger and photographers are likely to get this. Splints are put in to make the finger straight.
tendon
______ thumb is a fracture or torn ulnar collateral ligament.
Skier's
_____ neck deformity occurs when the proximal interphalangeal joint becomes hyperextended resulting in a flexed distal interphalangeal joint. It is treated with splints. Baseball players commonly get this when a baseball hits fingers.
Swan
A _________ deformity occurs when there is trauma to an extended digit. Trauma to the middle tendon pulls down lateral bands on the fiber and the distal phalange hyperextends.
Boutonniere
______ drift is seen in those who have large knuckles and fingers drift toward ulna. Originates from rheumatoid arthritis.
Ulnar
______ finger is also referred to as the swan deformity and it is a result of a weakened or torn extensor tendon.
Mallet

Abductor pollicis longus
Name two extensor muscles of the thumb.
Extensor pollicis brevis
Extensor pollicis longus
Name the extensor muscle of the fingers.
Extensor digitorum
Name the extensor muscle of the index finger.
Extensor indicis
Name the extensor muscle of the pinky.
Extensor digiti minimi
Extrinsic muscles are muscles (above/below) the wrist and intrinsic muscles are muscles (above/below) the wrist.
above
below
What are the four intrinsic muscles of the thumb?
Flexor pollicis brevis
Abductor pollicis brevis
Adductor pollicis
Opposer pollicis
What are the two intrinsic muscles of the pinky?
Abductor digiti minimi
Opposer digiti minimi
Fine motor control of the hand is due to a (smaller/larger) motor unit muscle to the fiber.
smaller
______ information sends afferent signals to the brain which sends efferent signals to the muscles.
Sensory
Name the three nerves that assist in hand movement.
Medial nerve
Radial nerve
Ulnar nerve
