- extracapsular and intracapsular

27
Q

extracapsular

A

ligaments located outside joint capsule

28
Q

intracapsular

A

ligaments located inside joint capsule

29
Q

Tendons

  • location
  • provides 2 things
A
  • may pass across or around joint

- stability and support

30
Q

Bursae

  • definition
  • what does it contain
A
  • small fluid filled pockets in connective tissue

- contains synovial fluid and are lined by a synovial membrane

31
Q

dynamic motion-

-5 types

A
  1. initial position
  2. linear motion
  3. angular motion
  4. circumduction
  5. rotation
32
Q

3 possible planes

A
  1. forward and backward]
  2. left to right
  3. rotation
33
Q

4 types of planar motion

A
  1. monoaxial
  2. biaxial
  3. triaxial
  4. nonaxial (multiaxial)
34
Q

Monoaxial

A
  • permits movement in only one axis

- angular movement that is forward and backward OR side to side

35
Q

Biaxial

A
  • permits movement in 2 axes

- Angular movement that is forward and backward AND side to side

36
Q

Triaxial

A

combination of angular movements and rotation

37
Q

Nonaxial

A

Joints that permit only small amounts of movement

-sliding/gliding

38
Q

6 types of synovial joints

A
  1. gliding
  2. hinge
  3. pivot
  4. ellipsodial or condyloid
  5. saddle
  6. ball and socket
39
Q

Gliding

  • structural category
  • type of planar motion
  • 4 examples
A
  • articulating surfaces are flat or slightly curved
  • non axial (slipping or gliding movements)
  • ends of clavicles, between carpals, b/n ribs 2-7 and sternum, b/n articular processes of adjacent vertebrae
40
Q

Hinge

  • structural category
  • type of planar motion
  • 4 examples
A
  • C-shaped surface of one bone swings about round surface of another bone
  • monoaxial
  • knee, elbow, ankle, interphalangeal joints
41
Q

pivot

  • structural category
  • type of planar motion
  • example
A
  • a ring of bones rotates about a process of a bone
  • monoaxial (rotation only)
  • atlas and axis, head of the radius and proximal shaft of the ulna (permits supination and pronation)
42
Q

Ellipsodial or condyloid

  • structural category
  • type of planar motion
  • 3 examples
A
  • a oval condyle of one bone fits into a depression on another bone
  • biaxial
  • radius with proximal carpals, phalanges with metacarpals, phalanges with metatarsals
43
Q

Saddle

  • structural category
  • type of planar motion
  • example

-Resembles a saddle (concave in one direction/convex in other)
– Biaxial
-Carpometacarpal joint at base of thumbs (twiddling)

44
Q

Ball and socket

  • Structural category
  • Type of planar motion
  • Two examples
A
  • Ball like head of one bone fits into cup shaped socket of another
  • Triaxial
  • Shoulder and hip
45
Q

Seven types of angular motion

A
  1. Flexion
  2. Extension
  3. Hyperextension
  4. Abduction
  5. Adduction
  6. Circumduction
  7. Rotation
46
Q

Flexion

A

47
Q

Extension

A

Increased the angle between articulating bones in the anterior/posterior pplane

48
Q

Hyperextension

A

Continuation of extension beyond anatomical position

49
Q

Abduction

A

Movement away from the midline

50
Q

Adduction

A

Movement toward the midline

51
Q

Circumduction

A

Proximal and remain stable and distal and moves in a circle

52
Q

Rotation

A

Movement of the bone around a long axis

53
Q
