Study Notes
Abdomen Anatomy
- The abdomen contains the following organs: liver, gallbladder, ascending colon, small intestine, cecum, appendix, spleen, stomach, transverse colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, and bladder.
- The abdominal wall is composed of several layers of muscles, including the external oblique, internal oblique, transversus abdominis, and rectus abdominis.
- The white line (linea alba) is a fibrous band running down the center of the abdomen.
- Connective tissue layers (aponeurosis) are present between abdominal muscles.
- The rectus sheath surrounds the rectus abdominis muscle.
Abdominal Regions
- The abdomen can be divided into four quadrants (RUQ, LUQ, RLQ, LLQ) and nine regions (right hypochondriac, epigastric, left hypochondriac, right lumbar, umbilical, left lumbar, right iliac, hypogastric, left iliac).
- Each region contains specific organs.
Landmarks for Abdominal Examination
- Right Upper Quadrant (RUQ): Liver, gallbladder, pylorus, head of pancreas, portion of right kidney, hepatic flexure of colon
- Left Upper Quadrant (LUQ): Left lobe of liver, spleen, stomach, body of pancreas, portion of left kidney, splenic flexure of colon
- Right Lower Quadrant (RLQ): Lower pole of right kidney, cecum, appendix
- Left Lower Quadrant (LLQ): Lower pole of left kidney, sigmoid colon, portion of descending colon
- Nine Regions of the Abdomen: right hypochondriac, epigastric, left hypochondriac, right lumbar, umbilical, left lumbar, right iliac, hypogastric, left iliac
Blood Supply
- Hepatic portal vein: Carries blood from digestive tract to the liver.
- Abdominal aorta: Major artery supplying blood to abdominal organs.
- Branches off: Splenic artery, renal artery.
- Vena cava: Major vein that collects blood from abdominal organs.
Alimentary Tract
- Mouth to anus, parts are involved in digestion.
- Includes: esophagus, stomach, duodenum, small intestine, large intestine, cecum, ascending colon, transverse colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, and rectum.
History of Present Illness (HPI)
- Onset/duration/character/location/associated symptoms/relationship to/recent stool/urinary characteristics/medication
- Pain characteristics - onset, duration, quality, location, associated symptoms
- Pain relative to menstrual cycle, intercourse, etc.
- Details regarding bowel patterns - frequency, consistency, color, and associated symptoms.
