CMC of the thumb joint type
Saddle Joint
Biaxial
CMC’s 2 – 5 joint type
This is a hinge joint with very little dorsal-volar movement
MCP joint type
This joint is a Condyloid joint with 2 degrees of freedom, and a fibrocartilage volar plate
IP joint type
This joint is a Hinge joint with only one degree of freedom. The thumb has only one of these but the rest of the fingers have 2.
When I flex my MCP, the fibrocartilage volar plate slides?
proximally
Kapandji stated that flexion of the wrist requires approximately ?? of motion at the radiocarpal joint and ??of motion at the midcarpal joint.
50 degrees
35 degrees
For the radiocarpal joint, the convex carpal row moves with respect to the concave radius.
So, with a dorsal roll (extension), the glide will be …
anterior
During flexion and extension of the 2nd through 5th MCP joints (when the proximal bone is
held stable) the glide is in the same direction as the movement because it is a …
a concavity is moving along a convexity
A positive fat pad sign is indicative of:
Elbow effusion and a possible occult intra-articular fracture
The Sagittal plane is also known as the
YZ plane
The Frontal plane is also known as the
XY plane
The transverse plane is also known as the
XZ plane
The axis of rotation for the shoulder abduction runs
anterior to posterior
The should joint has how many degrees of freedom?
3
The elbow joint when moving with the shoulder joint in an open kinematic chain has ____ degrees of freedom.
4
Which type of joint provides the most stability?
Which type of joint allows for the greatest movement?
Synarthrodial
Diarthroidial
What is the concave-convex principle?
If the bone with the convex surface moves on the bone with the concave surface, the bone will glide in the opposite direction.
If the bone with the concave surface moves on the bone with the convex surface, the bone will glide in the same direction.
