Upper Limb Patient Education Bundle — MYASKRO

Components

• Muscular shoulder joint model: Scapula–clavicle–proximal humerus with rotator-cuff muscles (supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, subscapularis) and deltoid; capsule/space orientation for impingement discussion.

• Muscular elbow joint model: Humerus–radius–ulna with biceps, brachialis, triceps, common flexor/extensor tendons, major nerves (median, ulnar, radial) routed to the forearm.

• Hand joint with ligaments: Carpus–metacarpus–phalanges showing collateral ligaments, volar plates, flexor/extensor retinacula, and carpal tunnel limits.

• Charts (52 × 70 cm, laminated with rollers): Hand & Wrist Anatomy and Shoulder & Elbow (osteology, myology, movements).

Patient-education objectives

• Explain shoulder kinematics (glenohumeral, scapulothoracic rhythm) and pathology: rotator-cuff tendinopathy/tear, subacromial impingement, frozen shoulder.

• Demonstrate elbow stability (UCL/RCL/annular ligaments), common conditions: lateral/medial epicondylitis, olecranon bursitis, radial head injury.

• Visualize wrist/hand stabilizers and carpal alignment; counsel on carpal tunnel syndrome, De Quervain’s, UCL injury (skier’s thumb), trigger finger, OA/RA changes.

• Use models to show safe ROM, nerve entrapment sites, and post-op/rehab precautions.

Specifications

• Life-size, Medical Grade PVC models on labeled bases; high-contrast, hand-painted detail.

• Charts: heavy-gauge, dry-wipe lamination with top–bottom rollers.

• Cleaning: mild detergent or 70% alcohol; avoid solvents/heat.

Intended users
Outpatient clinics, physiotherapy/OT, orthopaedics, sports medicine, and medical colleges for bedside counselling and OSCE teaching.
