Chapter 3 Anatomy & Kinesiology (page 43 -70) Flashcards
Describe three (3) cardinal planes of movement
Horizontal (top/bottom) frontal (front/back) and saggittal (left/right)
Define supine
Lying on the spine (on the back)
Define prone
Lying face down
Axial Skeleton
the skull, vertebral column, ribs, and sternum
Appendicular skeleton
upper and lower extremities, pelvic girdle, clavicle and scapulae
Diarthorodial joints
Synovial joints most common joints. small space between articulating bones that allows for great ROM. These joints contain a synovial cavity, Articular capsule and articular cartilage.
Cartilage
White, semi-opaque, fibrous connective tissue that cushions the joints and prevents wear on the joint surfaces.
Synovial membrane
secrets synovial fluid and provides nourishment, lubrication and hydrostatic cushioning for the joint.
Bursae
Liquid-filled membranes that protect soft tissues as they pass by bony projections.
Ligament
band of fibrous tissue that connects bone to bone and provides stability. Nonelastic
tendon
Dense, fibrous connective tissue that forms at the end of a muscle and attaches muscle to bone. Can be stretched achilles
Fascia
fibrous connective tissue that forms sheaths for individual muscles
List the primary joint actions of the shoulder joint
1) Shoulder flexion- arms up with palms down
2) Shoulder extension- palms down pull arms back
3) Shoulder abduction - lift arms out to side and raise
4) Shoulder adduction - lift arms out to side bring to side
5) Shoulder horizontal adduction/shoulder horizontal flexion arms straight pull across the body -arms horizontal plane.
6) Shoulder horizontal abduction/shoulder extension arms pull away from midline when arms horizontal
7) Shoulder internal rotation -pull in when arm is bent
8) Shoulder external rotation - pull outward when arm is bent
Name the rotator cuff muscles
SITS -form a cuff around the joint.
1) supraspinatus (above)
2) subscapularis (front)
3) infraspinatus (back)
4) trese minor (back)
Describe the shoulder girdle and the eight (8) primary joint actions
1) Scapular elevation -upward movement
2) Scapular depression -downward movement
3) Scapular retraction/Adduction- pulled to midline
4) Scapular protraction/abduction - scapulae pulled away from midline
5) Scapular upward rotation - rotation upward turning in the frontal plane. Arms up and out to the side
6) Scapular downward rotation - return from upward rotation. arms out and bring down to midline
7) Scapular upward tilt- slouching over cat
8) Scapular reduction returning to good posture shoulders back
