Terms | Definitions |
|---|---|
 articular disease | typically involves swellling and tenderness of the entire joint and limits both active and passive range of movement |
| Extra-articular disease | Typically involves selected regions of the joint and types of movement |
| Ligament | connect bone to bone |
| tendons | connect muscles to bone |
| bursea | synovial fluid that cushion the movement of tendons and muscles over bone |
| examples of Synovial joints | Knee, shoulder |
| examples of Cartilaginous joints | vertebrae |
| examples of fibrous joints | skull sutures |
| What is synovial joints movement? | freely movable |
| What is cartilaginous joint movement? | slightly moveable |
| What is fibrous joint movement? | Immovable |
| example of spheroidal joint | shoulders and hip |
| examples of hinge joint | flexion and extension of the digit |
| example of condylar joints | knee |
| What determines the direction and extent of joint motion? | The shape of the articulating surface of synovial joints |
| bursae | roughly disc-shaped synovial sacs that allow adjacent muscles or muscles and tendons to glide over each other during movement. |
| What back pain is preferred to as "sprain" or "strain" | idiopathic low back pain |
| musculoligamentous injury, disc herniation, vertebral collapse, spinal cord metastases or rarely epidural abcess. | What are conditions that cause midline back pain? |
| sacroilitis, trochanteric bursitis, sciatica or hip arthritis | What are conditions that cause pain off the midline |
| Leg pain that resolves with rest or lumbar forward flexion | spinal stenosis |
| cauda equina syndrome form s2 -4 midline disc or tumor if these symptoms occur | bowel or badder dysfunction |
| "Red flags" | older than 50, hx of cancer, unexplained weight loss, pain lasting more than 1 month or not responding to treatment, pain at night or increased by rest, IV drug use or persence of infection |
| Joint pain that is localized and involves only one joint. | monoarticular |
| pain that migrates from joint to joint or steadily spreads from one joint to multiple joints is a sign of what? | Rheumatic fever or gonococcal arthritis |
| severe pain of rapid onset in a red swollen joint is... | acute septic arthritis or gout |
| fever, chills, warmth, redness ...l | septic arthritis; also consider gout or rheumatic fever |
| lateral hip pain near the greater trochanter | trochanter bursitis |
| Generalized "aches and pains" | myalgias if in muscles and arthralgias if there is pain but no evidence of arthritis |
| symptoms that lead you to believe pain is articular in origin | swelling, stiffness, or decreased range of motion |
| a perceived tightness or resistance to movement | musculoskeletal stiffness |
| nonarticular pain | loss of active but not passive motion, tenderness outside the joint, absence of deformity |
| articular joint pain | pain, swelling, loss of active and passive motion |
| articular structure include | joint capsule and articular cartilage, the synovium and synvial fluid, intra-articular ligament, and juxa-articular bone |
| Extra- articular structures include | Periarticular ligament, tendons, bursae, muscle, fascia, bone, nerve and overlaying skin |
| What is the most common articular disease? | Osteoarthritis |
| The most typical inflammatory articular disease is | Rheumatoid Arthritis |
| Typical articular diseases of inflammatory character are, for example | gout |
| a chronic, systemic inflammatory disorder that may affect many tissues and organs, but principally attacks synovial joints. | Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) |
| what governs emotional behavior and sex drive | hypothalamus |
| athetosis | Slow, writhing movements, especially of fingers. Characteristic of basal ganglia lesion. |
| chorea | sudden, rapid, jerky, purposeless movement involving limbs, trunk, or face |
| synovitis | inflammation of the synovial membrane |
| rheumatoid arthritis | A chronic systemic disease characterized by inflammation of the joints, stiffness, pain, and swelling that results in crippling deformities |
| arthralgia | joint ache and pain without arthritis |
