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.
