EHS 218 Occupational Ergonomics Anatomy
2
Basic Anatomic Positions Anatomic Position
3
Basic Anatomic Positions Anterior = front Posterior = back
4
Basic Anatomic Positions Medial = toward midline of body Lateral = away from midline of body
5
Basic Anatomic Positions Proximal = closer to attachment / trunk Distal = farther from attachment / trunk
6
Basic Anatomic Positions Palmar = palm side Dorsal = back side of hand
7
Basic Structures and Functions Bones, Ligaments, Tendons, Nerves, Muscles, and Joints
8
Bones Support weight and protect organs Body movements –1 st, 2 nd, 3 rd class lever systems Blood cell formation Storage of minerals
9
Ligaments Strong, flexible, stress resistant, somewhat elastic fibrous tissue Connect bone to bone Stabilize joints - resist movement for which joint is not constructed Guide motion
10
Tendons Connect muscle to bone Transmit force from muscle to bone Continuations of muscle tissue
11
Nerves Transmit and receive signals for movement and sensation Central nervous system, peripheral nervous system, autonomic nervous system
12
Muscles Composed of skeletal muscle tissue, nervous tissue, blood, and various connective tissues Only tissue that can shorten and produce tension at ends Generate force Create motion Muscle origins and insertions –origin is usually proximal or stabilizer –insertion is usually distal or mover
13
Major Muscle Groups Upper extremity Lower extremity Torso
14
Muscles of the Upper Extremity Shoulder and back –Deltoids –Trapezius –Latissimus dorsi Chest –Pectoralis major/minor Arm –Biceps –Triceps –Lower arm muscles
15
Deltoid
16
Trapezius
17
Pectoralis
18
Latissimus Dorsi
19
Biceps Brachii
20
Triceps Brachii
21
Lower Arm - Flexors
22
Lower Arm - Extensors
23
Muscles of the Lower Extremity Thigh –Quadriceps –Hamstrings –Abductors –Adductors –Gluteals Leg –Calf muscles
24
Quadriceps
25
Hamstrings and Gluteals
26
Calf Muscles
27
Muscles of the Torso Anterior torso –Abdominals Posterior torso –Erector spinae
28
Joints Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist/Hand, Hip, Knee, and Spine
29
Joints When 2 or more bones meet Functional junctions between bones Classified on basis of structure and movement –Fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial –Immovable, slightly moveable, freely moveable
30
Basic Joint Movements Flexion – angle between segments decreases Extension – angle between segments increases
31
Basic Joint Movements Abduction – segment moves away from midline of body Adduction – segment moves toward midline of body
32
Basic Joint Movements Dorsiflexion – point foot up Plantar flexion – point foot down
33
Basic Joint Movements Inward rotation – rotation toward midline of body Outward rotation – rotation away from midline of body
34
Basic Joint Movements Supination – palm facing upward Pronation – palm facing downward
35
Basic Joint Movements Circumduction - complete rotation about segment midline
36
Upper Extremity - Shoulder Bones - clavicle, acromion, scapula, humerous Muscles - rotator cuff (subscapularis, teres minor, infraspinatus, supraspinatus), deltoids, latissmus dorsi, triceps, biceps, pectoralis Nerves - brachial plexus located deep within the shoulder Type of joint - ball-and-socket (synovial)
37
Movements of the Shoulder Flexion and extension Horizontal flexion and extension Abduction and adduction Circumduction Internal and external rotation
38
Upper Extremity - Elbow Bones - humerous, radius, ulna Muscles –Flexors = biceps –Extensors = triceps Nerves - brachial plexus: musculotaneous, radial, ulnar, and median nerves pass through Joint type - hinge between humerous and ulna; sliding joint between humerous and radius (synovial)
39
Movements of the Elbow Flexion and Extension, Pronation and Supination (at hand)
40
Upper Extremity – Hand/Wrist Bones - radius, ulna, 8 carpal bones, metacarpals, phalanges Muscles –all originate from distal end of humerous radius/ulna –flexors on anterior side –extensors on posterior side Nerves - brachial plexus: median nerve (lateral side of palm, palmar/dorsal aspects of thumb, index finger, middle finger, 1/2 ring finger); ulnar nerve (little finger and 1/2 ring finger)
41
Upper Extremity – Hand/Wrist Joint type - gliding joint (synovial) Flexor retinaculum - creates the carpal tunnel between the carpal bones and the retinaculum, through which the flexor tendons and median nerve pass
42
Movements of the Hand
43
Movements of the Thumb
44
Lower Extremity - Hip Bones - Femur and acetabulum of coxal bone Muscles - anterior: flexors, adductors, abductors; posterior: extensors (gluteals) Nerves - Lumbosacral plexus Movement - flexion/extension, abduction/adduction, inward/outward rotation, circumduction Joint type - ball and socket (synovial)
45
Movements of the Hip Flexion and extension Abduction and adduction Inward and outward rotation Circumduction
46
Lower Extremity - Knee Bones - femur, tibia, patella Muscles –Flexors = hamstrings (bicep femoris, semitendinosis, semimembrinosis), satrorious, gracilis, popliteus, gastrocnemius –Extensors = quadriceps femoris Nerves - Lumbosacral plexus Join type – synovial (most complex)
47
Movements of the Knee Flexion and extension Internal and external rotation (in flexion only)
48
Movements of the Foot Dorsiflexion and plantar flexion Eversion and inversion
49
Neck and Back Bones - vertebrae, C1-C7, T1-T12, L1-L5, sacrum and coccyx Muscles - erector spinae, abdominals Function of spine - supports head and trunk, protects spinal cord, permits movement Movement – between adjacent segments is limited; but the whole vertebral column has great flexibility
50
Neck and Back Intervertebral disks –Bands of fibrocartilage with gelatinous core –No blood supply –Nutrition via pressure changes, thus movement is required Curves of spine – “S” shape –thoracic and pelvic concave anteriorly –cervical and lumbar convex anteriorly
51
Movements of the Neck Flexion and extension Lateral flexion (right and left) Rotation (right and left)
52
Movements of the Back Flexion and extension (hyperextension) Lateral flexion (right and left) Rotation (right and left)
53
Nerves Brachial Plexuses
54
Musculotaneous Ulnar Median Radial
