Anatomy and Physiology Articulations Locations- Functions-
Classification of Joints by Structure 1.Bony 2.Fiberous 3.Cartilagenous 4.Synovial
Synovial Joint Structure Capsule- 2 layers 1. fibrous outer layer- continuous w/ periosteum 2. synovial inner layer- produces synovial fluid synovial fluid- lubricates articular cartilage Accessory Structures -Meniscus- pads of fibrocartilage which help hold joint in place -Bursae- synovial fluid filled sac, cushions joint
Classification of Joints by Movement 1.synarthrosis-- immovable 2.amphiarthrosis- -slightly movable 3.diarthrosis- - freely movable
Examples of 1. Synarthrotic Joints; A. Sutures B. Gomphoses C. Synchondrosis D. Synostoses
Examples of 2.Amphiarthroses A. syndesmoses B. symphyses
Examples of 3. Diarthroses 1. gliding- have flat or slightly curved surfaces ex- 2. hinge- permit angular motion in single plane ex- 3. pivot- permit only rotation in single plane ex- 4. ellipsoidal (condylar)- oval surface nestled in depression ex-
Examples of 3. Diarthroses 5.saddle- has concave and convex surface, produces biaxial movement but prevents rotation ex- 6. ball and socket- triaxial joints
Motions flexion / extension adduction / abduction pronation / supination elevation / depression
Motions (cont) circumduction rotation opposition
Motions (cont) inversion / eversion protraction / retraction dorsiflexion / plantar flexion circumduction rotation
Joint/Bone/Muscle Interaction p joint = fulcrum bone = lever muscle = effort (applied force) weight moved = resistance
First Class Lever looks like a see saw joint is located between the effort and the resistance example is extending the neck
Second Class Lever looks like a wheel barrow weight is located between the muscle and the joint example is plantar flexion
Third Class Lever looks like a crane muscle is located between the muscle and the joint example is flexing the elbow most common joints in body
Joint Disorders dislocations sprains inflammations
Arthritis Infectious osteoarthritis rheumatoid gout
Infectious Arthritis caused by a pathogen edema synovial fluid cloudy scarred articular cartilage treated with antibiotics
Osteoarthritis most common inflammation degenerative art. Cart. Deteriorates bone spurs form and break off into capsule treated with rest, heat, drugs, surgery
Rheumatoid Arthritis autoimmune disease synovial membrane inflammed pannus forms blood vessels rupture and clot calcifies can involve other tissues (lupus) treatment is rest, exercise, diet, drugs
Gout disorder caused by fault in uric acid metabolism acute and chronic pain in a joint uric acid crystals accumulate inside joint
