Innervation of rhomboideus minor
dorsal scapular n. (C5)
Actions of rhomboideus minor
elevates medial border and retracts scapula
Origin of Serratus Anterior
Lateral surfaces of ribs 1-9
insertion of serratus anterior
medial border of scapula, anterior to rhomboideus mm.
Innervation of serratus anterior
long thoracic n (C5-C7)
Action of Serratus Anterior
Protracts (draws forward) scapula holding medial border securely to thoracic wall
Serratus anterior aids ____ muscle when ____
Trapezius, during contraction, inferior angle moves forward faster than remainder of the medial border, the scapula is upwardly rotated.
Most important action of serratus anterior
Upward rotation of scapula
Origin of Deltoid
lateral 1/3 of clavicle, acromion, spine of scapula (same as insertion of trapezius)
Insertion of Deltoid
Deltoid tuberocity on body of humerus
