Once the artery is identified, scan proximal and distal, keeping the vessel in the middle of the screen looking for arterial braches. Also, press down with the probe and then relax pressure on the skin to identify corresponding veins. The block can be performed anywhere in the axilla provided the teres major muscle is identified deep to the artery. (Gonzales et al, 2012).
Slide the probe slightly lateral and identify the bright hyperechoic fascial plane between the superficial biceps muscle and the deeper coracobrachialis muscle. The musculocutaneous nerve appears as an oval or triangular structure in this fascial place with a bright hyperechoic surrounding epineurium and a dark center. If exact nerves are unable to be identified, an injection
Biceps Brachii - It's attachments are the coracoid process, supraglenoid tuberosity, and radial tuberosity. When it contracts it causes flexion and supination. It's located close to the endangerment site the antecubital. This area is known for housing chronic pain.
Directions: Label the neuromuscular (myoneural) junction. Then, read the case study below and answer the questions. Each question should be answered with FIVE or more sentences.
Movement of the deltoid begins in the cerebrum of the brain, but more specifically: in the frontal lobe, the premotor cortex is relaying instructions to the primary motor cortex. The primary motor cortex contains the upper motor neurons whose axons will travel down the pyramids of the medulla oblongata and synapse on lower motor neurons in the anterior gray horns of spinal cord segments C5-C6. From there, the ventral rami of spinal nerves C5-C6 form the superior trunk of the brachial plexus, which splits into two divisions. We will follow the posterior division that supplies to extensor muscles. This posterior division then runs into the posterior cord from which the axillary nerve is derived. The axillary nerve’s motor end innervates the deltoid through its neuromuscular junction.
Once inside the elbow the unlar nerveis recognized, lifted out, and moved to provide greater access to the joint. This is the "funny bone" nerve and it runs inside the ulnar groove.

Robert Penn Warren had many of the same experiences as the regular child: he had disagreements with his parents, did much of what they didn’t want him to, and turned out to be one of the most respected and well thought of authors in American history. Warren’s life was filled with many failures and these experiences had a heavy effect on him and his writing. Robert Penn Warren was a man heavily affected by a fractured relationship with his parents, a deep connection with his extended family, and a feeling of inadequacy; all of these factors led to his writing of All the King’s Men.

• Nerve conduction studies. These record muscle activity and check how well your muscle nerves send signals.
The vastus lateralis muscle forms part of the quadriceps muscle group of the upper leg and can be found on the anteriolateral aspect of the thigh. This muscle is more commonly used as the site for IM injections as it is generally thick and well formed in individuals of all ages and is not located close to any major arteries or nerves. It is also readily accessed. The middle third of the muscle is used to define the injection site. This third can be determined by visually dividing the length of the muscle that originates on the greater trochanter of the femur and inserts on the upper border of the patella and tibial tuberosity through the patella ligament into thirds. Palpation of the muscle is required to determine if sufficient body and mass is present to undertake the procedure.
The novel, To Kill A Mockingbird, takes place during a racially intense time in history. Harper Lee’s novel was intended to bring a harsh sense of reality to the real world, and demonstrate how it really was during this time in history. This novel is set in Maycomb, Alabama, somewhere during the time period of 1925-1935. Times were hard for the citizens of Maycomb during this period, because of the depression. There are many fictional events in this novel related to non-fictional racial events in history.
After seeing how close to the humerus the radial nerve ran, it was easy to understand how mid shaft injuries can lead to radial nerve damage. Not only this, but although we had learnt about the passing of Flexor Digitorum Profundus through Flexor Digitorum Superficialis, it was amazing to see it in real life, it was actually one of the highlights of this dissection for me.
Deportation has been around for quite some time, but has only now become a controversial topic due to the high incarceration and deportation rate in the last decade. According to Tanya Maria Golash-Boza, sociology professor at UC Merced, and author of the book Deported Immigrant Policing, Disposable Labor, and Global Capitalism, Obama and his administration deport more than 1000 immigrants a day. In the year 2012 the Obama administration established, “an all-time record high of more than 400,000 deportees” (Golash-Boza). What is more surprising is the fact that in 2012 more individuals were deported then the sum of all the individuals deported before the year 1997 (Golash-Boza). Mass migration of illegal immigrants began with the end of Keynesianism and the beginning of the neoliberalism. The ramifications of Neoliberalism has not only affected the us economy, but U.S. laws that directly influences the well-being of illegal immigrants.
