chapter 9 skeletal system Flashcards
articulation
-def: joint site where two or more bones meet
-function connect bones together but provide mobility in skeleton
Anatomical/Structural classification of joints (based on connecting material)
- fibrous
- cartilaginous
- synovial
Fibrous
bones joined by CT with no space
cartilaginous
bones joined by pad or bridge of cartilage
synovial
bones separated by fluid- filled cavity surrounded by CT
Physiological/functional classification of joints (based on amount of movement
- synarthrosis
- amphiarthrosis
- diarthrosis
synarthrosis
immovable joint( fibrous or cartilaginous)
amphiarthrosis
slightly moveable joint (fibrous or cartilaginous)
diathrosis
freely moveable joint (always synovial)
increased mobility
decreased stability
Synarthroses ( immovable strength)
- synostosis
- suture
- Gomphosis
- synchondrosis
synostosis
fused bones
suture
interlocked bones, sealed with dense CT
Gomphosis
tooth in alveolar socket, held by periodontal ligaments
synchondrosis
hyaline cartilage bridge between bones
amphiathroses (slightly moveable, strength with some mobility)
- Syndesmosis
- Symphysis
syndesmosis
bones connected by ligament
ligament
band of dense regular CT
symphysis
bones separated by pad of fibrocartilage
joint injuries
-sprain
-bursitis
sprain
damage to ligament, some collagen torn, slow to heal
bursitis
inflammation of a bursa due to trauma, infection or repetitive motion
synovial joints stabilized by articular capsule and accessory structures to restrict mobility
Increased mobility= decreased stability=increased chance of dislocation (luxation)
luxation
dislocation; joint displacement,
usually damages cartilage, ligaments,
and capsule, pain receptors in all CT of the
joint, except articular cartilage, to
prevent actions
subluxation
partial dislocation;
displacement beyond usual anatomical
limitation, “double jointed
Movements at synovial joints
- linear movemets
- angular movements
- rotational movements
linear movements
-gliding
gliding
slight movement in any direction
angular movements (one plane of motion)
-flexion
-extension
-hyperextension
-abduction
-adduction
-circumduction
flexion
reduce angle in sagittal plane
extension
increase angle in sagittal plane
hyperextension
extension past anatomical position
abduction
move toward longitudinal axis in frontal plane
circumduction
move in loop without rotation
rotational movements (turn on axis)
-medial rotation
-lateral rotation
medial rotation
turn in toward body
lateral rotation
turn out away from body
special and specific motion
-inversion
-eversion
-dorsiflexion
-plantar flexion
-opposition
-pronation
-supination
-protraction
-retraction
-elevation
-depression
inversion
turn sole inward
eversion
turn sole outward
dorsiflexion
lift toes
plantar flexion
lift heal
opposition
thumb across palm
pronation
medial rotation of radius
supination
lateral rotaion of radius
protraction
move anterior
retraction
move posterior
elevation
move superior
depression
move inferior
ranges of motion
- monaxial
- biaxial
- triaxial
- multiaxial
monaxial
movement in 1 plane
biaxial
movement in 2 planes
triaxial
movement in 3 planes
multiaxial
glididng joints, all directions
Types of synovial joints
- gliding/plane joint
- hinge joint
- pivot joint
- ellipsoidal joint
- saddle joint
6 ball and socket joint
Gliding/plane joint
flat surfaces slide in any direction
hinge joint
cylindrical projection intrough-shaped surface
Pivot joint
round projection in ring shaped depression
ellipsoidal joint
oval facet in oval depression
saddle joint
concave surface into convex surface
ball and socket joint
spherical head into cup like socket
Age related changes
-rheumatism
-arthritis
-osteoarthritis
-rheumatoid arhritis
-ankylosis
-gouty arthritis
Rheumatism
pain and stiffness of skeletal system
arthritis
rheumatism of synovial joints cayse by damage to articular cartilage
osteoarthritis
age 60+ cumulative wear and tear erodes cartilage
rheumatoid arthritis
autoimmune attack chronic inflammation and damage to joint
ankylosis
ossification of the joint due to untreated RA
gouty arthritis
crystals of uric acid from nucleic acid metabolism form in synovial fluid damage cartilage
