Carpals • Scaphoid • Lunate • Triquetral • Pisiform • Trapezium • Trapezoid • Capitate • Hamate

Muscles • Flexors • Flexor Carpi Radialis • Flexor Carpi Ulnaris • Palmaris Longus • Extensors • Extensor Carpi Radialis • Extensor Carpi Ulnaris • Supinator • Pronator Teres and Pronator Quadratus
Dislocations • Displacement of any bone from normal position • Subluxation: abnormal movement of one of the bones that constitutes a joint
Colles’ Fracture • Fracture of the distal radius or ulna just above the wrist • From falling on outstretched hand • Splint and refer to doctor
Boxer’s Fracture • Fracture to the 5th metacarpal • Most commonly seen in someone who has punched something solid
Mallet Finger • Occurs when a ball strikes the tip of the finger • Also known as baseball finger • Tearing of extensor tendon
Jersey Finger • Occurs when grabbing a jersey • Tearing of flexor tendon • Treatment usually involves surgery
Boutonniere Deformity • Caused by blow to bent finger or arthritis • The proximal interphalangeal joint is in flexion and the distal interphalangeal joint is in hyperextension
Scaphoid Fracture • Pain over anatomic snuffbox • Common fracture in athletics • Fall on outstretched hand • Not well vascularized
Contusions • Subungual hematoma-bleeding under the nail • Pain is from the pressure created • Puncture nail to relieve pressure
Gamekeeper’s Thumb • Sprain of ulnar collateral ligament of the metacarpophalangeal joint • Common in skiing • Use special test to diagnose • Tape and protect
deQuervain’s Tenosynovitis • Inflammation of the extensor pollicusbrevis and abductor pollicuslongus • Use signs and symptoms to diagnosis • Special test • Treat with RICE or cortisone shot
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome • Carpal tunnel is a passageway that runs from the forearm through the wrist • Median nerve runs through • CTS occurs when linings of tendons are inflamed or ligaments thicken
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome • S/S: pain, numbness, tingling in wrist, hand, and fingers • May drop objects • Usually caused by overuse • Phalan’s Test • Treat conservatively, surgery if needed
Ganglion Cyst • Ganglion cyst is a small, usually hard lump around a tendon or in a joint capsule • Common in bowlers, tennis players • Usually on back of wrist • Resolves on its own
Rehab • Wrist Extension • Wrist Flexion • Wrist Supination • Wrist Pronation • WristUlnarDeviation • Wrist Radial Deviation
Rehab • Elbow Flexion • Elbow Extension • Hand Intrinsic Muscles • Grip Strength
