Q

Bony joint

A

synarthrosis- an immovably fixed joint between bones connected by fibrous tissue
ex. metopic synostosis- premature fusing of the metopic suture have a triangular shape to the forehead. They have a noticeable ridge along their foreheads. Their eyes that appear too close together.

Q

Symphysis

A

secondary cartilaginous joint that connects bones with fibrocartilage. Symphyses are slightly moveable joints that allow for a small range of motion.
example is the pubic symphysis, where the pubic bones of the pelvis are joined together.

A

Joint in body that allow long range of motion

Q

How to keep integrity of convex-concave joint?

A

joint subluxation or dislocation would result were a convex surface to roll on a fixed concave surface without gliding at the same time.
Roll and glide must occur simultaneously, and must occur in opposite
directions.
Connective tissue prevents rolling off plateau. Glide/slide allows joint to stay intact since connective tissue pulls it into opposite direction

Q

How to keep integrity of concave-convex joint?

A

Joint surfaces would gap in some areas and impinge in others were a concave surface to roll on a fixed convex surface without gliding at the same time.
To preserve joint integrity, roll and glide must occur simultaneously, and in the same direction.

32
Q

Clavicle

A
  • “S”-shaped bone articulating with scapula and sternum
    connects upper extremity to thorax
    protects brachial plexus (network of nerves) and vascular structures
    Serves as attachment site for shoulder and neck muscles (connect to the skull)
33

A
  • Flat, triangular bone on the upper posterior thorax
35
Q

A

Sternoclavicular joint
acromioclavicular joint
scapulothoracic joint
glenohumeral joint

38
Q

Sternoclavicular joint motions

A

frontal plane= elevation and depression
sagittal plane= posterior rotation
horizontal plane= protraction and retraction. moving scapula

Joint is end of clavicle near the sternum

39
Q

Where will clavicle fracture on sternoclavicular joint?

A

Middle of S-shaped curve

40
Q

sternoclavicular joint dislocation?

A

pops forward or backwards and hits the blood vessels (subclavian veins and arteries)
anterior dislocation (forward) caused by hard blow to the shoulder from falling on an outstretched hand
posterior is when front of clavicle is hit and puts clavicle behind the sternum

41
Q

scapulothoracic joint

A

serratus anterior attaches to outside of ribs and inserts on the inside of the scapula (medial border) Keeps scapula against back
Damage to muscle/nerve causes muscle to be paralyzed and scapula is winged
On scapula towards back

42
Q

acromioclavicular joint

A

Between clavicle toward shoulder (lateral end) and acromion on scapula

43
Q

acromion

A

bony process on scapula that develops separately and fuses with the scapula

44
Q

Movement of acromioclavicular joint

A

frontal plane = upward and downward rotation of scapula. Big movement
horizontal plane (transverse) = small rocking left and right on a persons back
sagittal plane = forward (not much b/c ribs are there) and backward (lifts off a lil bit)

45
Q

AC ligament

A

between acromion and clavicle

46
Q

coracoclavicular ligament

A

Connects the clavicle to the coracoid process of the scapula.
trapezoid and conoid

47
Q

Grades of AC damage

A

grade 1: AC/ligament sprain
grade 2: AC and coracoclavicular
grade 3: all of them

48
Q

Glenohumeral joint

A

head of humerus and glenoid of scapula
Connective tissue is passive restraint. Neg pressure holds it together which provides stability

49
Q

Labrum

A

cartilage that helps keep ball of joint in place

50
Q

missing labrum parts would cause

A

The absence of anterior superior labrum would, in theory, concentrate forces in the superior labrum and the area of insertion of the biceps tendon, which could predispose the patient to a SLAP lesion and other intra-articular lesions.
However, some authors have suggested that its presence may create overload to the other structures of the shoulder that restrain movements such as the biceps tendon and rotator cuff. Its presence needs to be considered in athletes who present with repetitive shoulder pain that is attributed to rotator cuff lesions and SLAP lesions.

51
Q

glenoid labrum

A

group of connective tissue that make glenoid deeper

52
Q

Ways to check for dislocated shoulder

A

finger between process and head of humerus
More fingers = less intact the joint is

Have someone hold something and see if it falls

53
Q

Coracohumeral ligament

A

from humerus to coracoid process

53
Q

superior glenohumeral ligament

A

12 o’clock
like a tendon

54
Q

Middle glenohumeral ligament

A

3 oclock fibers pan out, not as tight bundles
Less like a tendon

55
Q

Inferior glenohumeral ligament

A

ligament structure anterior and posterior band with pouch in-between
Catches humerus when shoulder is dislocated

56
Q

Posterior capsule

A

provides zero restraint
Holds nothing in place because glenoid does not sit, it tips forward
Back bony ridge of glenoid does the restraint
Allows capsule space to have negative pressure

57
Q

Roles of muscle

A

Attach scapula to trunk
attach humerus to trunk
attach scapula to humerus
Rotator cuff muscles do this!

58
Q

Trapezius

A

Helps attach scapula to trunk

59
Q

Latissimus dorsi

A

Attaches humerus to trunk
Either moves the humerus or keep the scapula in place

60
Q

Scapulohumeral rhythm

A

Coordination of scapular and humeral movements
enables much greater range of motion (ROM) of the shoulder
Happens at the expense of stability

61
Q

Rotator cuff muscles

A

small muscle mass
deal with large external muscles (create unwanted shear)
provide joint compression, restraint in anterior, posterior and superior aspects
SITS muscles
The subscapularis
The infraspinatus
The teres minor
The supraspinatus

62
Q

supraspinatus

A

Attaches from top of scapula to upper end of humerus
Rotate and lift your arm

63
Q

subscapularis

A

attaches middle of scapula to lower part of humeral head
Hold arm outstretched

64
Q

infraspinatus

A

bottom of scapula to humerus behind the supraspinatus
rotation of arm

65
Q

Teres minor

A

Attaches to outside edge of scapula and attaches to humerus beneath infraspinatus
Turn and rotate arm

66
Q

Layers of rotator cuff

A
  1. Outer most layer. Down toward joint capsule. Ligaments
  2. Tendons for larger muscles that will move the arm.
  3. Tendons for the rotator cuff and tendons for large muscles at 45 degrees
  4. Unknown layer. Structures in outermost layer blending into this layer
  5. Joint capsule
67
Q

Regions of the spine

A

68
Q

Primary curves of spine

A

thoracic and sacral curves
Through development two more curves are added.

69
Q

Secondary curves of spine

A

cervical curve, thoracic curve, lumbar curve, sacral curve
cervical curve develops as baby lifts head (3 months)
lumbar curve develops as baby stands up and bears weight (9 months) Forms because head is above pelvis

70
Q

Weight bearing of the spine

A

It increases as you go down the spine from cervical to sacral regions

71
Q

Cervical vertebrae

A

C1 = atlas (allows nodding movement)
C2 = axis (allows turning movement)

72
