Skeletal System

Skeletal System 206 bones Functions Supports body and provides shape
Protects internal organs Movement and anchorage of muscles Mineral storage (Calcium and Phosphorus) Hematopoiesis (red marrow of the bone is the site of blood cell formation – red marrow is in long bones (epiphyses),pelvis, sternum, cranium, and ribs). Test question = provides mineral storage like calcium Test question = hemopoiesis – red marrow in long bones, sternum, & ilia produce RBC’s

1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
Prenatally, hematopoiesis occurs in the yolk sack, then in the liver, and lastly in the bone marrow. In the normal situation, hematopoiesis in adults occurs in the bone marrow and lymphatic tissues. 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system

Microscopic mature bone cells
Bone formation Osteocytes = mature bone cell Osteo = bone Cyte = cell Microscopic mature bone cells 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
5
1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
Bone formation Ossification – new minerals deposit to form bone Begins at 8 weeks gestation Minerals replace previously formed cartilage. 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
6
1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
Bone formation Infants bones are soft and pliable because of incomplete ossification. As bones ossify, they become hard. Long bones grow in length and ossify from the center to the ends. 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system

Joints Joints are points of contact between 2 bones- classified according to movement: Diarthrosis – movable Amphiarthrosis – partially movable Synarthrosis – immovable Articular cartilage – covers joint surface Synovial Fluid – lubricating substance in joints

Bursa and Synovial Membrane
Fluid-filled sac that contains the synovial membrane Lined by synovial membrane 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
36
Bursa and Synovial Membrane
Capsule that encloses a joint Lines the bursa Contains synovial fluid 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
37
Types of movement Flexion is a position that is made possible by the joint angle decreasing.
38
Extension A movement of a joint in which one part of the body is moved away from another. i.e. going from sitting to standing
39
Abduction A motion that pulls a structure or part away the midline of the body.
Adduction A motion that pulls a structure or part towards the midline of the body
40
Circumduction movement of a limb or extremity so that the distal end describes a circle while the proximal end remains fixed.
41
Rotation A motion that occurs when a part turns on its axis.
i.e. shaking your head “no”
42
1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
Pronate turn or hold (a hand, foot, or limb) so that the palm or sole is facing downward or inward. walk or run with most of the weight on the inside edge of the feet. 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
43
Pronation A rotation of the forearm that moves the palm from an anterior-facing position to a posterior-facing position, or palm facing down.
44
1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
Supination turn or hold (a hand, foot, or limb) so that the palm or sole is facing upward or outward. walk or run with most of the weight on the outside of the feet. 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
45
Supination The opposite of pronation, the rotation of the forearm so that the palm faces anteriorly, or palm facing up.
46
Disorders of the Skeletal System
Arthritis Arthritis = An inflammation of one or more joints. Osteoarthritis- degenerative, occurs with aging, 80% of Americans suffer, joints become enlarged and painful
47
Disorders of the Skeletal System
Arthritis Rheumatoid arthritis = A chronic, autoimmune disease = joints become swollen and painful, joint deformities common 1.03 Understand the functions and disorders of the skeletal system
48
Rheumatoid arthritis Osteoarthritis
49
1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
The main difference between osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritisis the cause behind the joint symptoms. Osteoarthritis is caused by mechanical wear and tear on joints. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease in which the body's own immune system attacks the body's joints 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
50
Disorders of the Skeletal System
Gout Increase of uric acid deposited in joint cavity, mostly the great toe in men. 1.03 Understand the functions and disorders of the skeletal system
51
1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
GOUT 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
52
Disorders of the Skeletal System
Osteoporosis- most of those affected are women. Mineral density of bone is reduced 35% – 65%. The loss of bone mass leaves the bone thinner, more porous and more prone to fracture. (soft like a sponge)
54
Disorders of the Skeletal System
Osteoporosis How do you think osteoporosis is treated?. Why is her height decreasing? 1.03 Understand the functions and disorders of the skeletal system
55
1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
Osteoporosis Osteoporosis occurs when bone is broken down and not enough new bone material is made. Over time, bone is said to be lost because it's not being replaced. Bones become smaller and weaker and can easily break if someone with osteoporosis is injured. 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
56
Disorders of the Skeletal System
Rickets Found in children, caused by lack of vitamin D, bones become soft. Is this a common problem in the US? Why or why not? Normal legs
57
Disorders of the Skeletal System
Abnormal spinal curvatures Kyphosis Lordosis Scoliosis swayback hunchback 1.03 Understand the functions and disorders of the skeletal system
58
Skeletal System Trauma
Dislocation Separation of bones in a joint Subluxation = partial separation (dislocation) 1.03 Understand the functions and disorders of the skeletal system
59
Skeletal System Trauma
Fracture- a break in a bone Treated by: Closed reduction- cast or splint applied Open reduction- surgical intervention with devices such as wired, metal plates or screws to hold bone in alignment Traction- pulling force used to hold the bone in place Used for fractures of long bones
60
1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
TRACTION the practice of exerting a slow, gentle pull on a fractured or dislocated body part. The purpose is to guide the part back into place and to hold it steady 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
61
1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
TRACTION 1.02 Remember the structures of the skeletal system
62
Closed or simple Open or compound Greenstick Comminuted Spiral
bone broken, broken ends don’t break skin Open or compound broken bone pierce the skin, can lead to infection Greenstick in children, bone bent and splintered but never completely separates Comminuted splintered or broken into many pieces Spiral bone twists, resulting in one or more breaks
