Q

What ligaments are around the GH jt and what do they do?

A
  1. glenohumeral ligament - superior, middle and inferior; three weak bands of fibrous tissue that strengthen the front of the capsule
  2. coracohumeral ligament - strengthens the capsule above and stretches from the root of the coracoid process to the greater tuberosity of the humerus
  3. transverse humeral ligament - strengthens the capsule and bridges the gap between the two tuberosities.

28
Q

What is the closed pack for the humeroulnar jt?

A

full extension and supination

29
Q

what is the capsular pattern for the humeroulnar jt?

A

flex > extension (flexion is more limited than extension)

30

34
Q

Which are convex and concave in the humeroulnar/humeroradial joints?

A

capitulum and trochlea = convex
articular surface of radial head = concave
trochlear notch = concave

35
Q

Name the ligaments around the humeroulnar/humeroradial joints and where they are located.

A
  1. radial collateral ligament - lateral epicondyle to annular ligament and margins of the radial notch
  2. ulnar collateral ligament - meidal epicondyle of humerus to the coronoid process and olecranon of the ulna
36
Q

What innervates the humeroulnar/humeroradial joints?

A
  • musculocutaneous n.
  • radial n.
  • median n.
37
Q

What is the angiology of the humeroulnar/humeroradial joints?

A

brachial, ulnar and radial arteries

38
Q

what does traction/distraction of the humeroulnar jt improve?

39
Q

Why is the hip JT much more stable than the GH it?

A

The acetabularfemoral JT is much more stable due to: - a negative intra-capsular atmospheric pressure(suction), a stronger JT capsule, a more specific femoral head and a deeper socket- made even deeper by the labrum(=a better fit)

40
Q

Where do most functional activities of the hip occur in ( in terms of degrees)?

A

Most functional activities occur between 0-120 degrees of hip flexion and between 0-20 degrees of lateral rotation and abduction.

41
Q

What is the structural classification of the hip?

A

The acetabularfemoral ( aka the hip) is structurally classified as a synovial joint. It’s sub-type is a ball and socket. It is multiaxial.

42
Q

What is the functional classification of the hip?

A

The functional classification of the hip is diarthrotic.

43
Q

How much ROM does the hip have in flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, medial rotation and lateral rotation?

A 
Hip JT ROM:
Flexion=120*
Extension=30*
Abduction=45*
adduction=30*
Medial rotation=35* (limited by ischiofemoral lig.) Lateral rotation=45* (limited by pubofemoral and iliofemoral ligaments)
44
Q

What is the resting position of the hip JT?

A

30* flexion, 30* abduction, and lateral rotation

45
Q

What is closed pack position for the hip?

A

Full extension, abduction, and medial rotation

46
Q

What is the capsular pattern of for the hip joint?

A

Internal rotation and abduction> flexion and extension> external rotation (which is relatively free.) (internal rotation/abduction are more limited than flexion/extension which is more limited than ext rotation.)

47
Q

What are the articular surfaces of the hip JT?

A 
Femoral head (convex)
And acetAbulum (concave)
48
Q

What is the capsular strength of the acetabular femoral joint?

A

It is STRONG due to zona orbicularis (which are the circular fivers of the articular capsule)

49
Q

What ligaments are associated with the hip JT?

A
  1. ) ligament Capitis femoris
  2. ) iliofemoral ligament
  3. ) pubofemoral ligament
  4. ) ischiofemoral ligament
  5. ) transverse acetabular ligament
  6. ) zona orbicularis
50
Q

What blood vessels and nerves are associated with the hip JT?

A

Femoral, obturator and gluteal nerves and arteries are associated with the hip JT.

51
Q

What joint mobs can be done on the hip JT?

A
  1. ) distraction
  2. ) long-axis traction/inferior glide
  3. ) posterior glide
  4. ) anterior glide
  5. ) postero-lateral glide of femur in pelvis
  6. ) lateral glide
52
Q

What movement does long-axis traction/inferior glide aid the hip JT with?

53
Q

What movement does posterior glide aid the hip JT with?

A

Flexion and medial rotation

54
Q

What movement does an anterior glide help with the hip JT?

A

Extension, and lateral rotation

55
Q

What movement does postero-lateral glide of the femur on the pelvis have on the hip JT?

A

Medial rotation

56
Q

What movement does lateral glide have on the hip JT?

A
