Week 3: joints and biomechanics of materials Flashcards
what shoulder movement moves in thr transverse plane
med/lateral rotation
what shoulder movement moves in the sagittal plane
flex/extend
what shoulder movement moves in the coronal plane
abduction and adduction
the axes of human movement are perpendicular to what
perpendicular to the plane in which segment rotates
x= flexion/extension axis is perpendicular to what plane
sagital
Z= abduction, adduction axis is perpendicular to what plane
to frontal plane
Y= med/lateral rot axis is perpendicular to what plane
transverse plane
what are degrees of freedom in a joint
number of planes within a joint moves
OT and PTs typically work in how many degrees of freedom/planes of movement
between 1-3 planes
what is an example of a joint that moves in only 1 plane/1 degree of freedom
PIP only flexion and extension
what is a joint in the body with 2 degrees of freedom
MCP
flex extension
abd/add
what are joints in the body with 3 degrees of freedom
hip and shoulder
human joints can be overal classed into 2 structures: what are they
synarthroses
diarthorsis
true or false: diarthroses joints have little movement
false,more movement
what are the 3 subtypes of synarthrosis
synostoses
synchondroses
syndesmoses
explain synostoses and gvie example
bone fused to bone
ex: sutures in the brain
explain synchondroses and give example
bone to bone by cartilage
ex: rib cartilage
explain syndesmosis and give example
bone to bone by fibrous connective tissue
ex: interosseous membrane
diarthorsis are aka as what types of joints
synovial
what are the 5 properties of synovial joint
articular cartilage
synovial fluid
synovial membrane
joint (articular) capsule
ligaments
articular cartilage is usually what type
hyaline
what is the function of articular cartilage in joints
at the distal aspects of bones to allow for smooth movement
joint/fibrous articular capsule contains what
contains joint receptors (mecanoreceptors) which are critical to movement (provide proprioceptive input)
what are the 4 mechanical classifications of synovial joints
uniaxial
biaxial
triaxial
no rotation
