Exam 1 Flashcards
Wolff’s Law
bones and soft tissue accommodate (grow) to the stresses and strains placed upon them
shoulder girdle bones
scapula and clavicle
sternocleimastoid insertion
mastoid process
isometric
static
no joint movement
Muscle doesn’t change in length, but create tension and contraction
Push/pull against unmovable object -> Feel tension, but no movement
Sprengel’s Deformity Etiology
failure of the scapula to descend during embryological development
head over the pelvis
- After birth, baby goes from C curve to S curve
- body wants the head over the pelvis
Subclavius Primary Function
protects sternal clavicular joint
Outward/Lateral/External rotation
rotary movement around longitudinal axis of a bone away from body’s midline
What can affect flexibility?
- exercise
- specific training
- habitual movement patterns
- age
- stability
- structure
range of motion
range of movement a joint has
posterior
behind, back, rear
Rhomboid Origin
C7 to T5 on the spinous process (medial border)
mover/agonist
- Muscle contracts concentrically for joint actions results
- When does concentric work
- Shortens to overcome a force
acromiclavicular joint ligaments
- Acromioclavicular
- Coracoclavicular
- Coracoacromial
sternocleimastoid deviation
wry neck a.k.a. Torticollis
Anterior
in front of/the front part
Subclavius Insertion
clavicle
contralateral
on the opposite side
Upward Rotation
scapula rotates in frontal plane
inferior angle moving laterally and upward
serratus anterior origin
upper 8 or 9 ribs
sternoclavicular joint ligaments
- sternoclavicular
- interclavicular
- costoclavicular
supine
body is face-upward
person lays on back
sternocleimastoid origin
sternum and clavicle
flexibility
range of motion
medial
nearer to median/midsagittal plane
related to the middle/center
internal; inward
circumduction
circular movement of a bone at joint
combo of flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction
Sprengel’s Deformity description
unilateral elevation of the scapula
Subclavius Origin
inferior surface of the 1st rib
Subclavius Action
- assistant mover
- abducts, shortens, pulls scapula down anteriorly
- concentric
Internal rotation
rotation medially/inward rotation/medial rotation
rotary movement around longitudinal axis of a bone toward body’s midline
pectoralis minor action
- abducts -> pulls in a downward rotation of the SG
- depresses
superior
supra
above another structure
