Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres Minor, Subscapularis

100
The superior border of Triangular space

Teres minor muscle

100

The action of rhomboid major

Retraction, downward rotation, and assists with elevation of scapula 

100

The nerve that innervates the Deltoid muscle

Axillary nerve C5, C6

100

Movements of the Scapula

Elevation/Depression

Protraction/Retraction

Rotation

200

The muscle(s) innervated by the Suprascapular nerve (C5, C6)

Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus

200

The borders of the triangular interval

Superior - Teres major

Medial - Triceps brachii, long head

Lateral - shaft of the humerus bone

200

The nerve innervation of the Levator Scapula

Dorsal Scapular nerve C5, branches from C3 and C4 spinal nerves

200
Action of the Teres Major muscle

medial rotation, extension, and adduction of arm

200

Name the ANTERIOR muscles that move the GH joint

Biceps brachii, Coracobrachialis, Pectoralis major

300

The origin and insertion of Subscapularis muscle

Origin: the medial 2/3 of the subscapular fossa

Insertion: lesser tubercle of the humerus

300

The contents of Triangular space

Circumflex scapular artery and vein

300

The origin of Pectoralis minor

Anterior surface and superior margin of ribs 3-5 near costal carilage, and fascia of intercostal spaces

300

The innervation of the muscle that inserts on the floor of the intertubercular groove of the humerus

Thoracodorsal nerve C6, C7, C8

300

Name the POSTERIOR muscles that move the GH joint

Rotator Cuff muscles, Teres Major, Triceps, Deltoid, Lattisimus Dorsi

400

The actions of the rotator cuff muscles as a group

Hold the head of humerus in glenoid cavity, Rotate humerus on long axis, Protect the shoulder joint by common musculotendinous sheath, Stabilize shoulder joint by acting as extensile ligament for shoulder motions

400

The contents of the Quadrangular space

Axillary nerve and posterior humeral circumflex artery

400

The origin of the muscle that is innervated by the motor accessory nerve CN XI, and proprioception anterior rami of C3, C4

medial 1/3 of the superior nuchal line of the occipital bone, external occipital protuberance, ligamentum nuchae, spinous processes of C7-T12 and related supraspinaous ligaments

400

The origin of the Triceps brachii

Long head - infraglenoid tubercle of the scapula

Lateral head - posterior surface and lateral border of the humerus proximal to radial groove

Medial head - posterior surface of the humerus distal to the radial groove; medial intermuscular septum

400

Name the ANTERIOR muscles that fix the scapula

Serratus Anterior, Pectoralis minor, Subclavius

500

The nerve innervation of the muscle that inserts into the inferior facet of the greater tubercle of the humerus

Teres minor muscle
500

Borders of the triangle of ausculatation and its significance

Superior border - Trapezius muscle

Inferior muscle - Latissimus dorsi muscle

Lateral border - Vertebral border of scapula

Significance - easier to listen to breath sounds, site of the 6th intercostal space

500

Innervation and action of Serratus Anterior

Innervation - long thoracic nerve C5-C7

action - scapular retraction, upward rotation by lower fibers, fixes scapula for other muscles, keeps scapula against chest wall

500

The origin of the muscle that inserts on the lateral lip of the intertubercular groove (crest of greater tubercle of the humerus)

Clavicular head: medial 1/2 of the clavicle (anterior and superior surfaces)

Sternocostal head: lateral 1/2 anterior surface of manubrium and body of sternum; costal cartilages of all true ribs; aponeurosis of external oblique muscle
