Pdf Summary
The AANEM Workshop on Anatomy & Kinesiology of the Shoulder and Upper Limb, conducted by Dr. John Norbury, focuses on the identification of key muscles in the upper extremity, as well as the performance of manual muscle tests (MMTs) and reflex and sensory examinations. The workshop aims to help participants localize nerve injuries based on these examinations.<br /><br />The anatomy and kinesiology of muscles in the shoulder and upper limb are discussed, including the origins, insertions, actions, and innervations of various muscles. The muscles covered include the upper, middle, and lower trapezius, serratus anterior, pectoralis, latissimus dorsi, external rotators, extensor carpi radialis, pronator teres, flexor carpi radialis, flexor digitorum profundus, abductor pollicis brevis, and finger abductors.<br /><br />Videos and images are provided to demonstrate proper muscle testing techniques and to illustrate the effects of muscle weakness. Clinical pearls and tips are also included to help participants in their assessment of patients.<br /><br />In addition, the workshop includes a section on the use of neuromuscular ultrasound in the evaluation of scapular winging. Different ultrasound views are presented to assist participants in identifying and assessing muscles such as the serratus anterior, latissimus dorsi, upper trap, levator scapulae, supraspinatus, middle trap, rhomboid, erector spinae, deltoid, and infraspinatus.<br /><br />Overall, the workshop provides valuable information on the anatomy, function, and assessment of muscles in the shoulder and upper limb, helping participants improve their clinical skills in diagnosing and treating patients with related conditions.
