Document Summary
7. 1 identify: ascending aorta aortic arch and its three major branches: brachiocephalic trunk (only on right side) right common carotid artery right subclavian artery left common carotid artery left subclavian artery. 7. 2 identify and describe the general areas of supply of the arteries of the upper limb: From the outer border of rib 1 to lower border of teres major. Supplies shoulder and pectoral region and lateral chest wall. Major contribution from the ulnar artery and small contribution from radial artery. Supplies the structures of the fingers, skin, muscles and fibrous sheaths deep palmar arch. Major contribution from the radial artery and small contribution from the ulnar artery. Supplies structures of the palm, such as lumbricals, interossei, metacarpals and tendons of long flexor muscles. 7. 3 understand the arrangement of veins of the upper limb into a superficial and a deep group and state the functional significance of this arrangement.
