What is Anatomical Position

Body standing in a state of extension

Hands supinated

Define the anatomic locations and positions


-Anterior


-Posterior


-Superior


-Inferior

Anterior - Front of the body


Posterior - Back of the body


Superior - Toward the head


Inferior - away from the head

Define the anatomic locations and positions


-Medial


-Lateral


-Intermediate

Medial - Toward the midline of the body


Lateral - away from the midline of the body


Intermediate - Between a more medial and a more lateral structure

Define these anatomic locations and positions


-Proximal


-Distal


-Superficial


-Deep

Proximal - Closer to the origin of body part or the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk



Distal - Farther from the origin of a body part or the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk



Superficial - Toward or at the body surface



Deep - Away from the body surface; more internal

Distinguish Each Body Planes

Name the 4 articulating surfaces

Condyle
Facet
Head
Trochlea

Describe each articulating surfaces

Condyle-large, smooth round articulating oval structure
Facet-small, flat shallow articulating surface
Head-prominent rounded epiphysis
Trochlea-smooth grooved pulley like articular process


What are the 3 main types of depressions on bone

Alveolus - Deep pit or socket in the maxillae or mandible


Fossa - Flattened or shallow depression


Sulcus - Narrow Groove

Name the C.E.L. Projections for tendon and ligament attachment

Crest - Narrow, prominent, ridgelike projection



Epicondyle - Projection adjacent to a condyle



Line - Low ridge

Name the P.R.S. Projections for tendon and ligament attachment

Process - Any marked bone prominence



Ramus - Angular extension of a bone relative to the rest of the structure



Spine - Pointed slender process

Name the 3 T's in Projections for tendon and ligament attachment

Trochanter - Massive rough projection found only in femur



Tubercle - Small round projection



Tuberosity - Large rough projection

Describe the 4 Openings and spaces in bone markings

Canal - Passageway through a bone



Fissure - Narrow, slitlike opening through a bone



Foramen - Rounded passageway though a bone



Sinus - Cavity or hollow space

What are the main parts of Bone and identify them in a long bone

What are the main functions of bone

-Support Soft tissue


-Protects internal organs


-Blood cell production


-Movement

How are bones classified?

According to their shape


Long


Short


Flat


Irregular


Sesamoid

Examples of long bones

Femur


Tibia


Humerus


Ulna


Radius

Examples of short bones

Carpals


Tarsals

Examples of irregular bones

Vertebrae


Sacrum


Coccyx

Examples of Flat bone

Sternum


Scapulae


Ribs


Pelvis

Examples of Sesamoid bone

Patella

What are the 4 properties of muscle tissue

Contractility


Excitablility


Extensibility


Elasticity`

Define agonist muscle

Muscle or group of muscles responsible for action and movement

Define antagonist muscle

The opposing group of muscles to the agonist. They relax in order for the agonist to complete the movement and contract to act as a brake to the completed movement

Define synergist muscle

Prevents unwanted movement and also acts as fixators or stabilizers

What movements do the sternoclavicular joint allow?

Elevation/Depression


Protraction/Retraction


Anterior and Posterior Rotation

What kind of joint is the sternoclavicular joint

Synovial saddle joint

What are the Ligaments of the Sternoclavicular joint?

Interclavicular ligament


Costoclavicular ligament


Sternoclavicular ligament

Describe the 2 S.C. Ligaments


 

Describe the 2 S.C. Ligaments


Interclavicular - Limits SUP and LAT displacement of clavicle



Costoclavicular - Main support. Limits all ROM except depression



Sternoclavicular - Limits ANT and POS glide of clavicle

Explain and describe the Acromioclavicular Joint

Synovial plane joint



Restricts over arm movements

What are the Ligaments of the Acro-clavi joint

Coracoclavicular



Acromioclavicular



Coracoacromial

Explain the functions of each Acro-clavi joint


 

Explain the functions of each Acro-clavi joint


Coracoclavicular - Primary restraint to vertical displacement



Acromioclavicular - Prevents separation of clavicle and scapula



Coracoacromial - Forms roof over glenohumoral joint -- protection for bursa and supraspinatus tendon -- Provides limit to superior humeral head movement

Describe and explain Glenohumeral joint and its ROM

Synovial ball and socket joint



Flexion/Extension


Abduction/Adduction


Medial/Lateral Rotation


Circumduction

What are the ligaments of the Glen-humeral joint?

Coracohumeral ligament



Superior/Middle/Inferior glenhumeral ligament

Explain the functions of each glen-humeral ligament

What are the elbow joints?
