Basic Concept 2 Flashcards
What are the two basic structure and function joints?
Synarthrodial and diarthrodial
What is arthrokinematics?
The motion that occurs between the articular surfaces of a joint.
What is synarthrodial?
Connective tissue holding bony components together.
What are the two types of synarthrodial joints?
Fibrous and cartilaginous
What are the two types of fibrous joints?
Sutures-skulls
Syndesmoses-tibia/tibia
What are the two types of cartilaginous joints?
Symphyses-symphysis pubis
Synchondroses-first chondrosternal joint
What are diarthrodial joints?
Synovial joints that always contain a synovial membrane, fluid, articular cartilage and joint capsule.
What are the three different types of diarthrodial joints?
Uniaxial joints
Biaxial joints
Triaxial joints
What are the two types of uniaxial joint types?
Hinge joint-elbow
Pivot joint-proximal radioulnar
What are the three biaxial type joints?
Condyloid-metacarpophalangeal
Saddle-thumb carpometacarpal
Ellipsoid-radiocarpal
What are the two triaxial type joints?
Plane-carpometacarpal
Ball-and-socket-hip and shoulder joint
What are the two articular joint surface shapes?
Ovoid Saddle(sellar)
What is a ovoid articular joint shape?
One surface is convex and the other concave
What is a saddle articular joint shape?
Each surface has one convex and concave surface
What are the three different types of joint motion?
Roll
Slide/glide
Spin
What are the three principles of movement?
For a concave-on-convex surface movement, the concave member slides in the same direction as the movement
For a convex-on-concave surface movement, the convex member slides in the opposite direction as the movement
Rolling is always in the same direction of the bone movement
What is the instantaneous axis of rotation?
The axis of rotation at any particular point in the motion
Joint motion occurs as a result of what?
A combination of rolling and gliding
What is joint play?
Joint laxity that allows normal sliding, spinning, and rolling to take place. Typically not under voluntary control.
Joint play is considered what type of motion?
Accessory motion
If there is not enough joint play it results in what?
Loss of ROM
If there is too much joint play it results in what?
Loss of stability
What is hypermobility?
Excess motion in a joint due to failure of the bony or soft tissue structures to prevent the motion
What is hypomobility?
Loss of motion in a joint due to inability of the soft tissue to elongate or the presence of a bony block
