Ulnar deviation

DOI: 12/1/2014.Patient is a 52 year-old female sales advisor who sustained injury when she slipped on a wet floor landing on her right side. Per OMNI, patient was diagnosed with closed fracture of the right radius, back contusion, right hip contusion, right elbow contusion, right shoulder sprain, right elbow sprain, cervical strain, and right shoulder contusion. The patient was subsequently diagnosed with unspecified injury of muscles and tendon of the rotator cuff of right shoulder-sequela. Per…

1. Flexor carpi ulnaris a. The flexor carpi ulnaris originates on the humeral medial epicondyle/ the ulnar olecranon process, and inserts onto the pisiform, hamate, and 5th metacarpal (Starkey, Brown, Ryan, 2011). a. Its main functions are wrist flexion and ulnar deviation (Starkey, et al., 2011). 2. Flexor digitorum profundus a. The flexor digitorum profundus originates on the proximal portion of the ulna near the interosseous membrane, and inserts onto the base of the phalanges (II-V) (Starkey…

the twitch force at 20% above the threshold, 2.6mA, was not a drastic jump as was 40%, 3.2mA, which showed considerably higher twitch force (Figure 4). This jump is primarily due to more motor neurons being activated as the stimulus intensity to the ulnar is increasing. Normally the nervous system recruits small-slow motor units first then large-fast…

Clinical Action Plan Comparative Report Comparison Both reports listed the routine projections for initial scaphoid investigations and explained the significance of each using similar resources and diagrams. The discussion regarding the blood supply of the scaphoid were also comparable. Similar conclusion was drawn from both reports that MRI is recommended for this case. However, a notable difference between the two reports is that the expert report provided more extensive statistics and…

sits proximally into the space allowed by the lunate and scaphoid bones of the proximal carpal bone row. Proximally, the capitate has rounded surface whilst the distal end has a triangular shape with a palmarly directed apex. The dorsal, radial and ulnar surfaces are concave with…

Introduction The repetitive nature of playing a musical instrument may cause a musician to experience discomfort, pain, or injury during the course of their life. This pain is often the result of repetitive movement or overuse of the tendons, nerves, and/or muscles referred to as a repetitive strain injury. One common repetitive strain injury is carpal tunnel syndrome, which occurs due to constant pressure and irritation of the carpal tunnel. For a serious musician, the occurrence of repetitive…

pain. She continues to note “quite a bit of pain” of her right wrist. She wears a splint full time. She is not working. On examination of the right wrist, range of motion shows flexion of 25 degrees, extension of 45 degrees, radial deviation of 5 degrees and ulnar deviation of 25 degrees. Grip strength testing shows 15/10/14 on the right and 35/35/35 on the left. As of this report, X-ray of the right wrist with 2 views shows proximal row carpectomy with capitate resting on the distal radius.…

estimate all 5 parameters needed to fit the analysis model. Scaphoid tubercle tenderness (STT) showed reasonably consistent and high sensitivities in 4 papers studying 879 patients, with a range of 0.82 to 1.00. This was also noticed for painful ulnar deviation (PUD) in 4 papers studying 394 patients where sensitivity ranged from 0.67 to 1.00. Rhemrev et al studied grip strength and range of motion (supination/pronation and flexion/extension). Both were significantly decreased in patients with a…

Surface Electromyography Amplitude During Sustained Isometric Contractions Connor Howe 31451131 HMKN 310 UBC Okanagan Greg duManoir October 18, 2015 Introduction Muscle fatigue is the result of a series of structural, metabolic and energetic changes in muscle fibers caused by changes in nervous system efficiency as well as decreased oxygen and nutrient supply (Cifrek, Medved, Tonković, & Ostojić, 2009). A major driving force behind muscle fatigue is lactate buildup. As lactate builds…
