ATTR 1100 Lecture Notes - Lecture 8: Ulnar Nerve Entrapment, Microtrauma, Anconeus Muscle
Document Summary
The carrying angle of the elbow angle between the longitudinal axis of the humerus and the ulna when the arm is in anatomical position. Primary restraint against valgus force at the elbow. Primary restraint against varus force of the elbow. The structure the nerves of the elbow descend from. What type of stress causes an ulnar collateral ligament sprain. What type of stress cause a radial collateral ligament sprain. What side of the elbow will an athlete report pain on the rcl sprain. The most common traumatic injury to the elbow. Two ways that an elbow dislocation can occur: high speed fall on outstretched hand with bend elbow, increasing medial and lateral stress on the elbow with the hand fixed. What area does the ulnar nerve pass through in the elbow. Behind the medial epicondyle of the humerus through the cubital tunnel. One special test that evaluates the integrity of the ucl.
