Joints
These joints have no synovial cavity and are held together by dense irregular connective tissue. The three types of this joint are sutures, syndesmosis, and interosseous membrane
Fibrous Joints
The four different categories of synovial joint movement are...
gliding, angular movements, special movements and rotation
This type of synovial joint permits mainly gliding movements. They permit side to side and back and forth movements. What is the name of this type of synovial joint?
Planar Joints
This structure can be considered similar to the vertebral discs. It is found between the tibia and the femur and helps reduce friction during movement along with shock absorption during impact. What am I?
Meniscus
This injury is know as a strain or tear of the shoulder musculature . It is common in over head sports such as volleyball, swimming, baseball and tennis due to the high repetition of should circumduction
Rotator cuff injury ,rotator cuff strain
This joint has no synovial fluid and are held together by cartilage. There are two versions of this joint and they are synchondrosis and symphysis
Cartilaginous Joint
This type of movement is biaxial. The bones move back and forth and side to side. An example of this moment would be the sternum against the clavicle when raising your arm. What is this movement?
Gliding
This type of synovial joint provides an opening and closing motion. its monoaxial. An example of this joint would be the knee. What type of synovial joint am i?
Hinge Joint
When talking about the knee.. the ligament that connects femur to the tibia is called...
medial collateral ligament
A sprain is when this structure is overstressed
ligament!!!!
This joint has a space between the articulating bones and it is covered by hyaline cartilage. This space allows for the joint to move freely.
Synovial Joint
The position of the head of the radius against the radial notch on the ulna creates what type of joint?
Pivot Joint
A tendon connects what to a bone?
a muscle
This type of injury in considered a medical emergency due to the damage of force from the tibia and femur being displaced and possible damage to the popliteal artery. This is also categorized when more than 3 of the accessory and capsular ligaments are torn.
dislocated knee
What are the three terms in which we classify joints functionally?
Synarthrosis, amphiarthrosis and diarthrosis
This type of movement revolves around its own longitudinal axis. An example would be turning your head from side to side as in to shake your head no. What is the name of this movement?
Rotation
Give me two examples of a ball and socket joint. Provide the appropriate names of each of the bones :)
Shoulder (humerus and scapula)
Hip (Femur and the pelvic bone acetabulum)
TRUE or FALSE: Someone with arthritis should live a sedentary lifestyle. They shouldn't participate in activity what so ever
FALSE!
This is the most common type of dislocations in children. This can result from a strong pull while the arm is in an extended and supinated position. What is this injury
Dislocation of the radial head
______ is also termed an articulation. It is a point of contact between bones, between cartilage and bones and between teeth and bones.
Joint
Special Movements
Which two types of synovial joints are considered triaxial?
Saddle Joints and ball and socket joints
Condyloid joints are considered convex oval shaped projection of one bone fits into the concave oval shaped depression of another. Give me an example of this joint.
MCP joints of the 2nd -5th digits
The degenerative joint disease in which joint cartilage is gradually lost is called
Arthritis
