6. Supine
1) Sternal head – Resist bringing arm across to opposite hip
2) Clavicular head – Resist bringing arm across body over head (mixture of flexion & adduction)

7. Prone
1) Place palpating fingers superior to spine of scapula
2) Patient abducts arm against resistance
3) Feel is tendon (very important tendon) deep to deltoid
- Locate acromion process then drop off distally & laterally

8. Sitting
1) Place arm in small of back
2) Place palpating fingers superior to superior angle of scapula
3) Patient elevates scapula

9. Sitting
1) Flex elbow 90*
2) Resist ulnar deviation from a neutral position
3) Palpate muscle just above shaft of ulna
4) See prominent tendon on ulna side of wrist

10. Supine
1) Bring arm straight up in the air pointing to the ceiling
2) Resist patient reaching towards the ceiling (push down)
3) Palpate on the ribs cage inferior to the axilla (armpit)

11. Sitting
1) Forearm fully supinated
2) Place fingers on proximal medial forearm
3) Patient moves fingers at MCP joints (pretend to type)
• Makes up main body of forearm
• Can also feel in dip next to ulna

12. Sitting
1) Lie the forearm on the bed with hand pronated
2) Keep extending & relaxing the thumb
3) Palpate the tendon on the medial border of the anatomical snuffbox

13. Sitting
1) Lie the forearm on the bed with hand pronated
2) Keep extending & relaxing the thumb
3) Palpate the tendon on the lateral border of the anatomical snuffbox

14. Sitting
1) Flex elbow 90* with hand in neutral position
2) Keep flexing little finger

• Tendon should be lateral to tendon of extensor digitorum
• Smaller & sits below extensor digitorum (in neutral hand position)

15. Sitting
1) Resist ulnar deviation
2) See prominent tendon near ulnar on wrist
3) Palpate muscle from tendon running up forearm

16. Sitting
1) Flex elbow 90* with hand in a neutral position
2) Flex fingers at IP & MCP joints (pretend to type)
3) Palpate muscle about a third of the way along forearm from elbow
4) See tendons at knuckles

17. Sitting
1) Arms abducted 90* with elbow bent 90*
2) Move palms facing upwards and contract back

(Lower fibres)
1) Lie prone
2) Bring arms straight in front of bed

18. Sitting
1) Abduct the thumb
2) Palpate muscle at thenar eminence
3) Tendon is next to extensor pollicis brevis tendon (seems like 1 tendon)

19. Sitting
1) Resist elbow flexion with hand in a neutral position
2) Can palpate along length of forearm

20. Prone
1) One forearm hanging over the edge of the bed
2) Put arm in between knees for resistance and allow client to medially rotate arm
3) Palpate from lateral border of inferior angle towards humerus
• Feel tendon underneath armpit next to tendon of lat
