Serratus anterior muscle

It influences stability of the shoulder joint and transfers forces from the legs to the arms (Ebaugh et al, 2010). These movements are crucial for a tennis serve and therefore show its importance in maintaining optimal function in this area (Schacter, 2010). Reinold et al (2013) has suggested that exercises strengthening the scapula stabilising muscles (serratus anterior and trapezius muscles) have shown to be beneficial for overarm athletes. By building up the dynamic stability of these muscles it may prevent them from being overstretched during the serving…

there was a difference between two or more groups and the findings found. There was no test statistic reported in the lay article because there was no study done for the article. The lay article is reporting on a scientific article but again does not run a test of its own. There is no data so therefore there are no assumptions to identify or even begin to identify. A study was not done for the purpose of the lay article, so therefore there are no results to discuss. Since the lay article is…

1. The major surface muscles include the following: Trapezius, Deltoids, latissimus dorsi, Pectoralis major, Biceps, Triceps, Rectus femoris, bicep femoris, semitendinosus, Gluteus muscles, abdominals, Lateral Gastrocnemius, serratus dorsi, external oblique, and soleus. Trapezius- Origin: Upper: Base of skull, Occipital protuberance and posterior ligaments of neck. Middle: spinous process of 7C and T1-T3 Lower: Spinous process of T4-T12 Insertion: Upper: Posterior aspect of the lateral…

parameters including pain, tenderness, range of motion, muscle strength and the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) were evaluated. Pre intervention baseline measures, which were assessed at week 1 for all the 6 subjects, were obtained from their case files. PSRP is a structured program consisting of high repetition but low resistance exercises, aimed for the strengthening of rotator cuff and scapular…

The proximal origin of the muscle is on the spinous processes of thoracic vertebrae 7–12, the thoracolumbar fascia, the iliac crest, and the lower ribs (Figure14). The tendon is attached to the humerus anteriorly floor of bicipital groove. The tendon is either wing-like or quadrilateral. Most of the deep surface of the tendon of the latissimus dorsi is separated from the underlying tendon of the teres major muscle by a bursa. The latissimus dorsi has several different functions, all of which…

during the pole plant which then leads to the jump and follow through. The jump follow through occurs when the pole vaulter lances themselves straight up in order to clear the bar. During the entire event the pole vaulters body is enticed in play by play action where every muscle takes…

Upon assessment, she progressed with stabilization exercise and required continual cueing to engage abdominal muscles and serratus anterior. On 01/13/2017, the claimant presented with low back pain. Her thoracic spine pain was much better. Upon assessment, the claimant gained a significant improvement as evidenced by a decreased pain following STM. On 03/02/2017, the claimant presented with neck and thoracic spine pain rated at 7/10. She presented with some improvement. The plan of care…

The superior glenohumeral ligament travels laterally from the upper part of the glenoid labrum and the base of the coracoid process to the upper part of the humerus between the upper part of the lesser tuberosity and the anatomical neck. The superior glenohumeral ligament contributes very little to static stability of the glenohumeral joint. However, this ligament helps to keep the humeral head suspended. The middle glenohumeral ligament has a wide attachment extending from the superior…

Evaluate how the name of a muscle can distinguish its location, action, shape, and function. Select five different muscles to make this distinction. Depending on the anatomical position of the body part, certain prefixes, and suffixes are utilized in order to find its location verbally. These prefixes and suffixes can be described by the: size of the muscle, location of the muscles, direction of the muscle fibers, amount of origins, shape of a muscle, and location of a muscle origin/insertion.…

The human body is composed of muscle which are responsible for body movement. Muscles in found in the human body attach to the bones of the skeletal system, in a human body there are “700 individual muscles that make up part of a person’s weight and the muscular system. Each of these muscles are separate organ which are made up of skeletal tissues, nerves, blood vessels and muscle tissues. Muscle tissues are found throughout the human body, inside the heart, the blood vessels and the digestive…
