Mark with a surface marking pen the position of the Median nerve at the Elbow Joint and at the Wrist Joint on a model in the Anatomical position with a time limit of two minutes. Objective No 81 - Criteria to be demonstrated. 1. Identify the pulse of the Brachial artery on the medial aspect of the Biceps brachii in the medial compartment of the Cubital fossa. 2. Mark the position of the pulse of the Brachial artery in the Cubital fossa. 3. Place a mark immediately medial to the Biceps brachii tendon at the level of the base of the Cubital fossa to indicate the position of the Median nerve. 4. Identify the tendon of Palmaris longus as it crosses the anterior surface marking of the Radio-carpal joint. (Objective No 48) 5. Place a mark immediately lateral to the tendon of Palmaris longus at the level of the Radio-carpal joint. 6. Identify the tendon of Flexor Carpi-radialis at the level of the Radio-carpal joint and surface mark. (Objective No 46) 7. The Median Nerve lies immediately lateral to the Tendon of Palmaris Longus as it crosses the anterior surface marking of the Radio-carpal joint and 1cm medial to the Tendon of Flexor Carpi-radialis. 8. A line marked on the surface joining points marked in steps 3 and 7 indicates the projected course of the Median nerve at the level of the Elbow Joint to the Radio-carpal joint.
