Exam 1 (Ch 1-4) Flashcards
-provide contractile force that causes joints to move -must span the joint to have an effect on that joint -soft and cannot attach directly to bone
Muscle
“caved” in much like a cave
concave
-partial dislocation of a joint and usually occurs over a period of time ex. after a stroke, muscle paralysis and weight of arm slowly separate the shoulder joint
Subluxation
- caused joint distraction in which joint surfaces pull apart from one another -due to external force
Traction
Yellow Part of body?
Green part of body?

Axial
Appendicular
Hollow or depression
Fossa Ex. Glenoid fossa of scapula
Joint structure- components - two that are articulate with each other -amount and direction of motion allowed at each joint are dictated by shape of the bone ends by the articular surface of each bone
Bones
- length is greater than width -largest bones of body and most of appendicular skeleton
Long bones
A movement that straightens or opens a joint
Extension
-lined with a synovial membrane
Inner layer of capsule
-AK movement that happens between joint surfaces when an external force creates a passive motion at the joint
Joint play movement
-often found in acute condition in which soft tissue edema is present such as immediately after a severly sprained ankle or with synovitis -soft “wet sponge” feel
Boggy end feel
-glide motion -movement tends to be linear instead of angular -occurs secondarily to other motion -joint surfaces are relatively flat and glide over one another instead of one moving around the other (plane, joint)
Nonaxial joint
-divides the body into right and left -flexion and extension
Sagittal plane
What bony landmark is highlighted?

Ischial tuberosity
tuberosity- large, rounded projection
A movement of the head and vertebral column along the transverse plane
Rotation
-caused by the breakdown and eventual loss of cartilage or one or more joints
Osteoarthritis (degenerative)
-must connect them to bone -cylindrical cord or flattened band -encased in tendon sheathes
Tendon
Living, organic composition (1/3)
gives bone elasticity
3 types of normal end feel
soft, firm hard
Structure (or movement) closer to head
Superior
A limb at the shoulder or hip turns away from the midline
Lateral Rotation
inflammation of a tendon
Tendonitis
What is the bony landmark marked out?

Glenoid fossa
-hollow or depression
