  1. Health Careers Academy Anatomy & Physiology Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT

  2. Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT THE BODYAnatomic position=standingface forwardarms at sidespalms forward

  3. Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT THE BODY PLANES Describe the relationship of one part to another Imaginary lines drawn through various parts to separate into sections

  4. Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT THE BODY PLANES The transverse horizontal (top and bottom)‏ Parts above=superior Parts below=inferior Towards the head=cranial Towards the sacrum=caudal

  5. Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT THE BODY PLANES The midsagittal or median (vertical R/L) Parts close to mid = medial Parts close to side = lateral

  6. Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT THE BODY PLANES The frontal or coronal vertical (front/back) Front = ventral or anterior Back = dorsal or posterior front Center back

  7. Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT THE BODY PLANES Proximal and Distal Used to describe locations of extremities in relation to the main trunk Proximal Close to Distal Distant from

  8. Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT THE BODY CAVITIESSpaces within the body that contain vital organs Dorsal (back) 1 continuous cavity Cranial Spinal Ventral (front) 2 separate cavities separated by the diaphragm Thoracic (chest) contains heart lungs and large vessels Abdominal Upper contains Stomach, Small Intestine, most of Large Intestine, Gall Bladder, Pancreas & Spleen Lower (pelvic) contains Urinary Bladder, Reproductive organs, & Last of Large Intestine

  9. Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT THE BODY CAVITIES The 3 small cavities: Orbital (eyes) Nasal (nose structures) Buccal (mouth)

  10. Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT THE ABDOMINAL REGIONS QUADRANTS LUQ Left upper RUQ Right upper LLQ Left lower RLQ R lower

  11. Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT THE NINE REGIONS Right hypochondriac (R HC) Left hypochondriac (L HC) Epigastric (EPI) Umbilical (UMB) Right lumbar (R L) Left lumbar (L L) Hypogastric (H G)‏ Left inguinal (L I) Right inguinal (R I)

  12. Nanette Morris, RN, BA, NBCT The end, my friend
