Study Notes
Anatomy Overview
- Anatomy involves the study of the shape and structure of body parts.
- Understanding anatomical movements helps in examining and diagnosing patients.
Key Movements in Anatomy
- Extension: Straightening movement that increases the angle between two body parts.
- Abduction: Movement of a limb away from the median plane of the body.
- Adduction: Movement of a limb toward the median plane of the body.
- Lateral Rotation: Rotating a limb away from the median plane.
- Medial Rotation: Rotating a limb toward the median plane.
- Circumduction: Combining flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction, creating a circular motion.
Joint Anatomy
- Joints are surrounded by a joint capsule, which is a curved structure that lines and seals the joint for stability.
- Some patients may not experience pain despite joint issues, indicating the need for thorough examination regardless of symptoms.
Additional Terms
- Flexion: Refers to the bending movement that decreases the angle between body parts.
- Joint stability and function are crucial for overall mobility and activity in daily life.
