Midterm - Week 2 Flashcards
What are the three ways to classify joints based on # of joint surfaces
- Simple
- compound
- complex
What is a simple joint
2 articular surfaces, 1 articulation
Ex: MP joint
What is a compound joint?
3 or more articular surfaces 2 or more articulations
Ex: scaphoid/lunate
What is a complex joint?
2 or more articulation surfaces, an articular disc or meniscus
Ex: TMJ/tibiofemoral joint
What are the 6 anatomical/morphological classifications? [Examples of each?]
- spheroid (ball and socket) [hip and shoulder]
- ellipsoid (condyloid) [radius on scaphoid/lunate]
- arthroid (planer, gliding) [navicular on 1st/2nd cuneiform]
- Sellar (saddle) [trapezium on metacarpal of thumb]
- gignglymus (hinge) [humerus on ulna/radius]
- trichomonas (pivot) [radius on humerus, C1 and C2]
What is osteokinematics classification?
Based on mechanical/joint axes of motion (degrees of freedom)
It’s the movement you see
What is uniaxial? Ex?
1 degree of freedom.
Elbow
What is biaxial? Ex?
2 degrees of freedom
Ex: MP joint
What is Polyaxial? Ex?
3 degrees or more of freedom
Ex: shoulder/hip
What is nonaxial? Ex?
Gliding
Ex: navicular on cuneiform
What are the two types of motions of osteokinematics?
Spin, swing
Spin occurs when the mechanical axis (is stationary/moves)? Swing occurs when the mechanical axis (is stationary/moves?
spin - Stationary
Swing - moves
Spin and rotation occur when mechanical axis (is/is not) parallel to the long axis?
IS
Ex: pronation/supination with radius
Spin and angular movement occurs when mechanical is (is/is not) parallel to the long axis?
IS NOT
Pure swing is (rare/common)? Pure spin is (rare/common)?
Rare
Rare
