Synovial Joint Major Parts
Subchondral Bone Plate
Articular cartilage
Synovium
Joint Capsule
Articular Cartilage
Cover bone of the joint
Provides a smooth, slippery surface that allows free movement of joint
Synovium
Consist of the spaces between 2 articulating bones
Synovial membrane secretes synovial fluid that lubricates join surfaces and removes debris
Joint Capsule
Surrounds the join and unties articulating bones
Three phases of bone healing
Inflammatory
Reparative
Remodeling
Inflammatory Phase of Bone Healing
Hematoma forms at fracture site
-Provides stability
-Aseptic inflammation occurs
Inflammatory duration
1-3 days for hematoma
3 days - 2 weeks for early repair
Reparative Phase of Bone Healing
Fibrous Cartilage
-Formation of granular tissue containing blood vessels
-Formation of CALLUS
Ossification
-Space in the bone is bridged and fracture ends are united
-CALLUS replaced by TRABECULAR BONE
-6 Weeks
Remodeling Phase of Bone Healing
-Bone consolidation w/ final remodeling
-Healing is complete
