In this video we go over the locations of the abdominopelvic regions and abdominal quadrants and we cover the names of each of the regions and quadrants. • • Transcript and notes • Abdominopelvic regions and abdominal quadrants • Abdominopelvic regions were created to make it easier to locate organs and diagnose the source of abdominal pain. These regions are divided into 9 sections which are set up like a tic tac toe board. Looking at the body from the anterior view will make right and left appear backwards, but these are named in reference to the body itself, not the viewer of the body. • The right hypochondriac region is in to the upper left corner. The epigastic region is the upper center section. The left hypochondriac region is the upper left corner. The right lumbar region is the middle left section. The umbilical region is in the center. The left lumbar region is the middle right section. The right iliac region is the lower left region. The hypogastic region is the lower center region, and the left iliac region is the lower right region. • Many professionals use a simpler map of regions to locate organs or abdominal pain. They section the area into 4 quadrants. Again, looking at the body from the anterior view will make right and left appear backwards, but these are named in reference to the body itself, not the viewer of the body. These are basic in terminology. There is the right upper quadrant, the left upper quadrant, the right lower quadrant and the left lower quadrant. • Timestamps • 0:00 What are abdominopelvic regions? • 0:10 Overview of the 9 abdominopelvic regions • 1:04 The 4 abdominal quadrants
