what is the location of the the annular pulleys

Study These Flashcards
A

1- metacarpal head

  1. mid proximal phalanx
  2. PIP
  3. mid middle phalanx
  4. DIP
24
Q

what are the hypothenar muscles

Study These Flashcards
A
  1. AbDM, FDM, ODM

2. arrise from the hook of the hamate, pisiform, flexor retinaculum and tunnel of guyon ligament

25
what are the muscles of the thenar eminence
1. APB 2. OP 3. FPB 4. AP
26
what is the only wrist extensor that the radial nerve innervates?
1- ECRL | 2- PIN innervates all the other wrist extensor
27
what is the difference between swan neck and boutonniere deformity
1. swan neck - during MCP flexion you get flexion of DIP with hyperextension of PIP 2. boutonniere - bow stringing from failure of the flexor pulley causing flexion of the PIP with extension of the DIP
28
what might nail clubbing or spoon shaped nails indicates?
1. clubbing - pulmonary or inflammatory bowel | 2. spoon - iron deficient, Raynaud's or lupus
29
What are the four stages of tendon gliding
1. open hand 2. hook fist 3. straight fist 4. full fist
30
what is a hook fist
flexion of the PIP and DIP by the FDS and FDP | - requires good lumbrical mobility
31
what is a straight fist
first without DIP flexion | - requires maximum FDS gliding
32
what is a composite fist
full fist and brings in maximum FDP gliding
33
what are the different pinch types and how can they be used in DD?
1. key or lateral - ulnar nerve emphasis via 1st dorsal interossi 2. tip - fromete sign -PIN 3. 3 point - median
34
what muscles can you test in the hand to differentiate median nerve from ulnar nerve?
1. median APB - back of the hand on the table, lift the thumb towards the ceiling and resist 2. ulnar 1st DI - hand on table neutral pronation, thumb add, and abd index and push down on index
35
what is the DeQuervain CPR parts
1. Finkelstein 2. tenderness over the APL and EPB 3. pain over radial styloid process 4. swelling 5. thickening 6. paon on resisted thumb extension 7. pain in the 1st dorsal compartment with wrist movment
36
what are the stages of the Finkelstein test?
I. forearm on the table let the wrist drop off the table into UD II. apply passive over pressure to the wrist III. apply passive over pressure to the thumb
37
What is the scaphoid shift test?
1. palpate scaphoid tubercle and passively move wrist into UD 2. maintain pressure of scaphoid and move wrist into RD 3. positive if there is a clunk or crepitus
38
what is the scapholunate ballotement test
1. pronate the wrist and mobilize the scaphoid on the lunate
39
what is the ulnar fovea sign
tenderness in the space between the ulnar styloid process and tendon of the FCU - possible disruption of the DRUJ ligaments
40
what is the piano key sign
1. hold the hand and press down on the distal ulna like pressing a piano key 2. positive is symptom production or relative hypermobility
41
What are the monofilament norms
1. 2.83 normal 2. 4.31 diminished light touch 3. 4.56 loss of protective sensation 4. 6.65 untestable
42
how do you perform monofilmant testing
- start with the smallest | - apply 3 times 1" on 1" off
43
2 point discrimination norms
less than 6mm normal
44
How does the information from 2 point discrimination differ from monofilament testing
- 2 point how many nerves are present | - monofilament how many nerves are awake
45
how do you perform 2 point discrimination
begin at 5 mm applying to the point of blanching, - alternate between one and two points - must correctly identify 7 of 10 trails
46
what is forment sign
try and pull card out from key pinch | - the thumb will collapse into DIP extension due to weakness of the Ulnar nerve innervated FDB deep head and AP
47
what is the scratch collapse test?
scratch over a superficial nerve region and test shoulder ER (B), positive will be a brief loss of strength
48
what is the most important factor related Flexor tendon repair strength
The number of core strands across the repair
49
What surgical factors will influence flexor tendon repair plan
1. number of core suture strands 2. core suture configuration 3. core suture size 4. addition of peripheral epitendinous sutures
50
Immobilization of a flexor tendon repair occurs how long and in what position?
1. 4 weeks | 2. wrist in flexion 20-25 degree, MP joints in 50-60 degree flexion
51
When does AAROM and tendon gliding begin with flexor tendon repairs
1-2 weeks, goal is to put slack on the repaired tendons
52
when does strengthen begin after flexor tendon repair
About 8 weeks for light resistance, 10-12 weeks heavy (greater than 10 pounds)
53
What criteria might suggest a patient is able to perform an early mobilization program following flexor tendon repair
1. people who follow rules well | 2. repair should have at least 4 strands of repair
54
How would you isoloate motion of FDP versus FDS
1. FDP - block all but the DIP during flexion | 2. FDS - block flexion all fingers except target and flex target at the PIP
55
What are the flexor tendon zones
1. injuries in zone I would produce cut to flexor digitorum profundus only. 2. No mans land 3. distal palmar crease to the distal edge of flexor carpal ligament. It is also called lumbrical zone because of the presence of lumbricals in this zone. 4. zone under carpal tunnel 5. from wrist to muscle belly
56
what are the extensor tendon zones?
I-VII, with Odd numbers at each joint (I-DIP, VII-wrist)
57
what extensor tendon zones do mallet finger and boutonniere deformities occur in
1. mallet - zone 1 | 2. boutonniere - zone 3
