Study Notes
Anatomical Terminology
- A bruise on the front right lower leg is described as anterior and distal to the knee.
- Sunburn on a patient's back would be referred to using the term posterior.
Serous Membranes and Fluid
- Serous membranes cover organs to prevent friction between the organ and the body cavity wall.
- Serous fluid allows organs, such as the heart and stomach, to slide across cavity walls and each other without friction.
Anatomical Organ Damage
- The urinary bladder is considered the organ least likely to be damaged in an automobile accident.
Prefixes in Anatomy
- "Trans-" means across, beyond, or through.
- "Micro-" refers to something abnormally small.
- "Phys-" denotes nature or physical.
- "Medi-" indicates the middle.
- "Hypo-" means under, beneath, or less than normal.
Anatomy and Physiology Concepts
- The study of cells in gastric pits represents microscopic anatomy.
- The mediastinum is the body region located beneath the stomach.
- Physiology is the study of the body's nature and functions.
Body Sectioning
- A transverse section refers to a cut across the body horizontally.
Trauma Assessment
- Concern for the oral region arises when evaluating a submental laceration after a toddler falls.
CPR and Chest Anatomy
- A sagittal view of the chest best illustrates how chest compressions can maintain circulation during CPR.
Surgical Procedures
- Removal of a nevus from the left scapular region is commonly referred to as mole removal from the left shoulder blade.
