Q

What are the 5 functions of the menisci ?

A
  1. Absorbs shock
  2. Makes a better fitment between 2 articulating joints

Q

What factors can affect range of motion in joints?

A
  1. Shape and structure of the articulating bone
    The shape determines how close they fit together.
  2. Strength and tension of muscle and joint ligaments either restrict of permits certain joint movements.
    3.Hormones (relaxin) increases flexibility of the pubic symphysis and loosens ligaments between the sacrum and the hip bone.
  3. Disuse of joint may restrict movement .

Q

What are gliding movements?

Give an example.

A

Gliding movements are simple back and forth side to side movements. Limited range since there is no angle alterations.
Typically found in the carpus joints (wrist joints)

Circumduction is the movement of a body part in a circular motion. BALL-AND-SOCKEY
Angular movement

21
Q

What is hyperextension?

What type of movement?

A

Hyperextension is the movement of a body part past normal extension.
Angular movement

22
Q

What are rotation movements?

Give an example.

A

Rotation involves a bone revolving around its own longitudinal axis.
Example: Turning your head left to right…

23
Q

What is Medial?

A

Medial is towards the midline.

24
Q

What is lateral

A

Later is away from the midline.

25
Q

Explain the elevation movement. Give an example.

What category of movement?

A

Elevation is an upward movement of a body part (closing the mouth)
Special movements.

26
Q

Explain the depression movement. Give an example.

What category of movement?

A

Depression movement is the downward movement of a body part. (opening the mouth)
Special movements.

27

Explain the Protraction movement. Give an example.

What category of movement?

A

Protraction is the movement of a body part anteriorly. (pushing the jaw forward)
Special movements.

28
Q

Explain the retraction movement. Give an example.

What category of movement?

A

Retraction is the movement back to normal position. (pushing the jaw backwards)
Special movements.

29

What category of movement?

A

Inversion is the movement of the foot medially or inward.

Special movements.

30
Q

What category of movement?

A

Eversion is the movement of the foot laterally or outward.

Special movements.

31
Q

Special movements

34
Q

Special movements.

35
Q

Explain the Opposition movement. Give an example.

What category of movement?

A

Opposition is the movement of a thumb across the palm to touch all other finger tips on the same hand.
Special movements

36
Q

when is arthroplasty performed and what does it entail?

A

Arthroplasty is performed when joints in places like hips and knees are worn out.

Its a procedure where either polymer or metal is used to replace worn out joints. In the hip the hip they reshape the acetabulum and replace the head of the femur.

37
Q

Explain osteoarthritis .

A

Osteoarthritus is mainly age related and is when the body stops producing as much synovial fluid. Ligaments become shorter and develop bone spurs.
Generally starts in bigger bones first.

38
Q

Explain rheumatoid arthritis.

A

Rheumatoid arthritis is immune related. The body doesn’t recognize itself and starts attacking joints and joint capsules. The joint becomes calcified and you lose movement.
Generally starts in small bones first, and can affect children.

39
Q

What are the classifications of structural joints?

A
  1. Fibrous joints
  2. Cartilaginous joints
  3. Synovial joints
40
Q

What are Fibrous joints?

A

Fibrous joints are held together by dense collagen fibers.

41
Q

What are Cartilaginous Joints?

A

Cartilaginous joints are held together by a bar of cartilage between to bones. They lack a synovial cavity and provide little or no movement.

42
Q

What are Synovial joints?

A

Synovial joints are the most complex. Ligaments hold bones together to form a synovial cavity and a freely moveable joint.
It has a two layered capsule the encloses the synovial cavity. An outer membrane and an inner synovial membrane.

43
Q

What are the sub categories of functional joints?

A
  1. synarthrosis (is a none moveable joint)
  2. Amphiarthrosis (a slightly moveable joint)
  3. Diarthrosis (a fully moveable joint)
44
Q

What is a synarthrosis joint?

A

Synarthrosis is a none moveable joint.

45
Q

What is a amphiarthrosis joint?

A

Amphiarthrosis joint is a slightly moveable joint.

46
Q

What is a diarthrosis joint?

A

A diarthrosis is a fully moveable joint.

47
Q

What are fibrous joints?

A

Fibrous joints are joints that lack cartilage and a synovial cavity. The bones are held together by dense irregular connective tissue.

48
Q

Where are fibrous joints found?

A
  1. Sutures in the skull.
  2. Gomphoses- teeth joints
  3. Syndesmosis - Interosseous membrane between the tibia and fibia.
49
Q

Where are cartilaginous joints found?

A

Cartilaginous joints are found in the

  1. Synchondrosis, epiphyseal growth plates.
  2. Symphyses, Pubic symphysis and the intervertebal disks of the spine.
