Is the wrist considered distal to the shoulder?
Distal is away from the center of body trunk or point of attachment. The wrist is farther away from center of body trunk. Proximal is closest to the body central axis or point of attachment, so the shoulder is proximal.
What is a distal calviculectomy?
A distal clavicle resection, also known as a distal claviculectomy, is a surgical procedure where a portion of the collarbone (clavicle) is removed to treat conditions such as arthritis or impingement in the shoulder joint. This procedure can help relieve pain and improve range of motion in the shoulder.
What is a distal clavi?
A distal clavi is a bone, also known as the clavicle or collarbone, located in the body that connects the shoulder blade to the sternum. It plays a crucial role in stabilizing and supporting the shoulder joint.
Is clavicle distal to umbilicus?
The clavicle is not distal or proximal to the umbilicus. It is superior and lateral.
What type of joints are the hips and the shoulders?
Hip and shoulder are both Ball and Socket Joints
Is the wrist distal or proximal to the shoulder?
The wrist is distal to the shoulder. The shoulder is proximal to the wrist.
Which direction describes the hand in relation to the shoulder?
distal
Is the elbow anterior to the shoulder?
nope. anterior means in front of. the elbow is distal to the shoulder.
Is the shoulder proximal or distal to the wrist?
Proximal vs. distal, is in reference to the Point of attachment to the axial skeleton. So the shoulder is proximal to the wrist, or the wrist is distal to the shoulder. Distal= further away Proximal= closer
Is the wrist considered distal to the shoulder?
Distal is away from the center of body trunk or point of attachment. The wrist is farther away from center of body trunk. Proximal is closest to the body central axis or point of attachment, so the shoulder is proximal.
Is the shoulder proximal to the elbow?
No. The elbow is distal to the shoulder. Proximal means closer to the body, whereas distal is further away.
The elbow is distal to the shoulder and what to the fingers?
The shoulder is superior to the hand, it cannot be classified as distal or proximal.
Is The distal end of the humerus at the shoulder?
The distal end of the humerus articulates with the two bones of the forearm, the radius and the ulna. Noteworthy features on its distal and are the lateral and medial epicondyles (one of which is your elbow) as well as the trochlea and capitulum(both of these features forming the "pulley" shape found at the end of the humerus.
Can you move your shoulder that move your hips move?
ummm i think you are asking, "Can you move your shoulder that move your hips?" So, yes, you could...
Which of the following describes the position of the elbow with respect to the wrist and shoulder?
The elbow is distal to the shoulder but proximal to the wrist

The shoulder is proximal to the wrist?
nope. easy way to remember: proximal=proximity, hence closer to the body, and distal=distance, hence further away from the body. so the wrist is distal to the shoulder, and the shoulder is proximal to the wrist. make sense?
