Exam 1 Flashcards
Short Bones
no diaphysis, cube-shaped
ex: tarsals and carpals
Flat Bones
protectin and structure
ex: skull, ribs, sternum
Irregular Bones
do not fit in other categories
ex: vertebrae, pelvic bones, hyoid
Sesamoid Bones
embedded in tendon
found where tendons pass over angled structure or areas of high force
ex: patella, foot
Tuberosity
rounded prominence
Process
projection
Tuberercle
smaller rounded prominence
Condyle
large knob/protuberance at end of long bones
Epicondyles
rounded eminence of a condyle
Fossa
smooth hollow or depressed surface
Spine
long thin projection
Facet
small flat surface
Notch or Groove
a cut out or depression that allows passage
Foramen
hole or opening
Sinus
hollow space or cavity
Hinge Joint
uniaxial articulation
ex: elbow, knee
Ball and Socket Joint
bony rounded head fitting into a concave articular surface
ex: hip and shoulder joint
Plane (gliding/irregular) Joint
2 plane or flat bony surfaces which butt against each other
ex: vertebral facets in the spinal column, intercarpal joints, intertarsal joints
Condyloidal (knuckle joint)
biaxial ball and socket joint
ex: metacarpophalangeal or knuckles
Sellar (saddle) Joint
unique triaxial joint
ex: 1st carpometacarpal (this is the only example)
Trochoidal (pivot, screw) Joint
uniaxial articulation
ex: atlantoaxial joint (found in the neck)
Pennated
more fibers in a smaller area to generate more force
longer time to generate force
Parallel
fewer fibers so less force
quicker contraction time
First Class Lever
RAF
ex: neck
Second Class Lever
FRA
ex: calf
Third Class Lever
ARF
ex: bicep
Pronation of Ankle
eversion of the hind foot, abduction at forefoot, and dorsiflexion
Supination of Ankle
inversion of the hind foot, adduction at forefoot, and plantar flexion
Lisfranc Joint Injury
type of injury to the bone, ligaments, or both in the middle part of the foot
usually damage to the cartilage covering these bones
can be caused by twisting fall
Lisfranc Joint Injury Recovery
surgery
open reduction and internal fixation
joint fusion
Turf Toe
sprain of the ligaments around the greater toe
Bunion
bony bump that forms on the joint at the base of your big toe
An ankle radiograph should be performed if there is pain in the malleolar region with:
- bone tenderness at the posterior edge of the tip of the lateral malleolus
- bone tenderness at the posterior edge of the tip of the medial malleolus
- inability to bear weight for at least 4 steps
A foot radiograph series should be performed if there is any pain in the mid foot region with:
- bone tenderness at the navicular bone or 5th metatarsal
- inability to bear weight for at least 4 steps
High Ankle Sprain
caused by dorsiflexion with eversion
tear of the tibiofibular ligaments
anterior most common
Valgum
knees inward
Varus
knees outward
