For the outpatient breast biopsy (I know, different procedure... but as an example) the cost was over $12,000 ($6,000 for the surgeon, $900 for the anesthesiologist, $5,000+ for the hospital use of a room, equipment, drugs, etc) ! Charity care at this hospital covered the use of hospital equipment and the room.
This muscle is named for its trapezoid shape. The trapezius muscle is a postural and active movement muscle, used to tilt and turn the head and neck, shrug, steady the shoulders, and twist the arms. The trapezius elevates, depresses, rotates, and retracts the scapula, or shoulder blade. Innervation of the trapezius is derived from the spinal accessory nerve.
The trapezius muscle is one of the larger muscles found in the human body and when tightened is one of the major stiff neck causes.Because a function of the trap muscle is to move the neck in several directions, the degree to which it is tight or loose affects your neck's flexibility.he trapezius muscle is one of the larger muscles found in the human body and when tightened is one of the major stiff neck causes.
