Study Notes
Anatomic Terminology
- Anatomic Position: Body is erect, facing forward, arms at sides, palms forward.
- Flexion: Decreases joint angle in the sagittal plane.
- Extension: Increases joint angle in the sagittal plane.
- Dorsiflexion: Foot is lifted towards the shin.
- Plantar Flexion: Foot is depressed away from the shin.
Movement in Planes
- Abduction: Limb moves away from body’s midline in the frontal plane.
- Adduction: Limb moves towards body’s midline in the frontal plane.
- Circumduction: Combines flexion, abduction, extension, and adduction; distal end moves in a circle while the proximal end remains stable.
- Rotation: Bone turns around its own long axis.
Forearm and Foot Movements
- Supination: Forearm rotation causes palm to face anteriorly or superiorly.
- Pronation: Forearm rotation causes palm to face posteriorly or inferiorly.
- Inversion: Sole of the foot turns medially.
- Eversion: Sole of the foot turns laterally.
Specialized Movements
- Protraction & Retraction: Transverse plane movements.
- Elevation & Depression: Elevation lifts a body part superiorly; depression moves it inferiorly.
- Opposition: Thumb touches tips of fingers at the joint of the first metacarpal.
Injury Concepts
- Bilateral: Pertaining to both sides of the body.
- Mechanism of Injury (MOI): Process through which an injury occurs.
-
Complications of MOI:
- Forces applied at various angles and durations.
- Different tissues respond uniquely to stress.
- Injuries range from mild to severe.
Forces and Effects
- Force: Push or pull acting on an object.
- Injury Causes: Result from abnormal forces.
- Effects of Force: Can lead to acceleration (change in velocity) or deformation (change in shape).
Factors Influencing Injury
- Two Primary Factors for Injury Occurrence: Magnitude of force and tissue properties.
- Yield Point (Elastic Limit): Maximum load without permanent change.
- Anisotropic: Structure has varying strength against forces based on direction.
Types of Forces
- Axial Force: Acts along a structure's long axis.
- Compression: Squeezing effect due to axial loading.
- Tensile Force/Tension: Opposing compression, can lead to sprains.
- Shear: Force that slides one part of an object past another.
Mechanical Concepts
- Stress: Force distribution within a body; calculated as force per unit area.
Injury Classification
- Acute Injury: Sudden onset from a single force; follows a predictable healing process.
- Chronic Injury: Develops over time from repetitive stress; can lead to pain and inflammation over long periods.
Connective Tissue
- Collagen: Major component of connective tissue; strong in tension. Features a wavy structure when not under stress, allowing slight stretching under tension.
