Term
The __ nerve goes through the carpel tunnel.
Definition
median
Term
Carpal bones:
Definition
So Long To Pinky, Here Comes The Thumb.

Scaphoid> Lunate> Triquetrum> Pisiform> Hamate> Capitate> Trapezium> Trapazoid
Term
Extensors insert on the __ __. Central slips insert on the __ __.
Definition
- distal phalynx
- PIP joint
Term
Each metacarpophalangeal joint has an ___ __ __ and __ __ __.
Definition
- ulnar collateral ligament
- medial collateral ligament
Term
Each metacarpophalangeal joint has an ___ __ __ and __ __ __.
Definition
- ulnar collateral ligament
- medial collateral ligament

Definition
Term
Post-radiation dermatitis may develop into __ __ __.
Definition
squamous cell carcinoma
Term
Treatment for pyogenic granuloma on hand?
Definition
- tourniquet and cauterize
Term
Each digit has __ and ___ digital nerves.
Definition
- radial and ulnar
Term
Always check nerve status in hands and digits, check __ touch, __ touch, and __ __.
Definition
- light touch
- dull touch
- pin prick
Term
Normal 2 pt discrimination is ___. This is a good test to evaluate __ __ recovery and __ __.
Definition
- 5-7 mm
- nerve repair recovery
- compression syndrome
Term
what nerve is in the guyon tunnel?
Definition
ulnar nerve
Term
What nerve innervates the intrinsic muscles of the hand?
Definition
ulnar nerve
Term
How do you test the intrinsic muscles of the hand?
Definition
adduction

So if person has cubital tunnel or guyon tunnel, the ulnar nerve is being compressed> intrinsics will weaken and atrophy> decreased strength on finger adduction
Term
Raynaud's Phenomenon is a __ problem.What test could you do?
Definition
- vascular
- Allen test
Term
How can you assess blood flow to the hand?
Definition
- Allen test
- Auscultation for bruits suggesting occlusion
- Doppler sound magnification system
Term
How do you perform the Allen test?
Definition
: occlude radial and ulnar arteries> pt makes a fist and opens> release one artery and observe recirculation (color) to fingers, repeat with other artery, report how many seconds it takes for color to return
Term
Burger's is a disease of the __ __.
Definition
small vessels
Term
Tool used to check ROM:
Definition
Goniometer

full extension = straight= 0 degrees
Term
How do you record wrist ROM?
Here is an example
Extension/flexion. Written: E/F=60/70
Radial/Ulnar deviation. Written: R/U=20/30
Definition
Term
Apply __ force to check the phalanges radial ligaments, and __ force to check their ulnar ligaments. Check at __ and at __ degrees.
Definition
- ulnar force> radial ligaments
- radial force> ulnar ligaments
- 0 and 20 degrees

Ligaments should be tight througout fingers full ROM
Term
3 joints of the wrist:
Definition
- Radio-carpal
- Ulnar-carpal
- Distal radio-ulnar
Term

Definition
Term
The radial styloid is where __ __ occurs.
Definition
- DeQuevain's tendonitis
Term
The anatomical snuffbox is where __ __ will be tender.
Definition
scaphoid fractures
Term
___ may occur at the carpometacarpal joint (CMC joint).
Definition
Osteoarthritis
Term
The space at the 3rd and 4th Metacarpal is where the __ __ joint and ligament are located. This is where __ __ tend to occur.
Definition
- scapho-lunate joint and ligament
- ganglion cysts
Term
The finger extension tendons is where the _____ ligament is located. This is where __ __ occurs.
Definition
- Luno-triquetral ligament
- Keinboch's disease
Term
The distal ulna is where the ___ ___ __ is located.
Definition
- triangular fibrocartilage complex
Term
INSTABILITY OF THE MID CARPAL JOINT – may feel clunk, shift, loosened.

this is slide 77, not really sure whats going on here
Definition
Term
What are the two locations for stress testing the intercarpal ligaments?
Definition
- Pisiform
- Scaphoid tubercle

When you grab the wrist at these places and rock the wrist joint back and forth you can feel, hear, or sense a shift in the joints if there is a problem
Always compare this to the patients normal wrist to make sure what you may feel, hear, or sense as a shift, is abnormal for the patient
Term
To check instablity of the scapholunate ligament, put your thumb on the __ __, press and apply stress. Use other hand to maneuver into ulnar and radial deviation.
Definition
scaphoid tubercle
Term
Checking instability of the Luno-Triquetral Ligament
Definition
grap pisiform and dorsal ulna and move back and forth?

Term
What 2 muscles make up the extrinsic flexors of the hand:
Definition
- Flexor digitorum profundus
- Flexor digitorum superficialis
Term
What muscles make up the intrinsic muscles of the hand?
Definition
- thenars
- interossei
