Articulations | where two or more bones meet |
Functional Classification of Joints | (1) Synarthroses (Immovable)(2) Amphiarthrosis (Slightly movable) (3) Diarthroses (Fully movable) |
gomphosis | ligaments that hold tooth in bony socket,immovable joint, |
Structural Classification of Joints | (1) Fibrous: (bone ends united by collagen)sutures, syndesmoses, gomphoses (2) Cartilaginous: (bones united by cartilage) synchondrosis, symphyses, synovial joints |
Types of synovial joints | Planar, Hinge, Pivot, Saddle, Ball & Socket, Condyloid/Ellipsoid |
Flexion, Extension, Hypertension | Flexion- bent kneeExtension-extend knee Hypertension-bring leg back |
Abduction, Adduction, Circumduction | Abduction-arms outAdduction-arms in |
Rotation, Lateral rotation, Medial rotation | Rotation- twistingLateral rotation- twisting out Medial rotation- twisting in |
Pronation, Supination | Pronation-palm downSupination- palm up |
Dorsiflexion, Plantar flexion | Dorsiflexion- heel down toes upPlantar flexion- toes pointed down |
Inversion, Eversion | Inversion-foot inEversion-foot out |
Protraction, Retraction | Protraction- chin forwardRetraction- chin back |
Elevation, Depression | Elevation-shoulders upDepression- shoulders down |
Opposition | Opposition- thumb and index finger pinch. "OK" |
Factors influencing Joint stability | (1) Shape of articular surface(2) Ligaments (3) Muscle tone |
Disorders and Imbalances: Sprain | Sprain type 1- stretched ligamentSprain type 2- ligaments torn slightly Sprain type 3- ligaments torn completely |
Lyme disease | deer ticks, bullseye rash, joint disease |
Osteoarthritis | Degenerative joint disease, non-inflammatory, only cartilage affected, deterioration of cartilage produces bone spurs and restricts movements, pain upon awakening and lessens with movement. |
Gouty Arthritis | Uric acid crystals build up in joints-pain.waste products of metabolism build up and deposited in cartilage causing inflammation and swelling. bones fuse. |
Rheumatoid arthritis | Autoimmune disorder, cartilage attacked by immune system, inflammation and swelling, pain, joint fusion |
Arthroscopy | examination of joint, small instrument, remove torn knee cartilage, small incisions |
Arthroplasty | replacement of joint, total hip replaces acetablum and head of femur, plastic socket and metal head, knee replacement. |
