Relating to the area in front of the elbow or the inner surface of the forearm.
From Latin 'ante' (before) + 'cubital' (relating to 'cubitus', the elbow). Medical professionals use this term to describe the anatomical region.
Nurses and doctors call the antecubital space—that inner bend of your elbow—the perfect spot for drawing blood because major veins run close to the surface there, making it safer and less painful than other locations.
