prevent injury, ○ Z axis restore function and provide optimal human ○ Motions: performance Abduction and adduction (hip, shoulder, digits) FORCES AFFECTING MOTION Ulnar and radial deviation Gravity (abduction/adduction of wrist) Muscle tension Lateral flexion or bending (neck, External resistance trunk) Friction SAGITTAL / MIDSAGITTAL PLANE BIOMECHANICS ○ Midsagittal or YZ plane ○ Divides the body into left and Application of mechanics to the living right human body ○ X axis / ML axis (medial lateral) Statics - Bodies at rest or in uniform motion ○ Motions: Dynamics - Bodies that are accelerating or Flexion/extension (neck, trunk, decelerating elbow and many more) KINEMATICS Dorsiflexion and plantarflexion Deals with types of motion or movement (ankle) without regard for the forces that produce TRANSVERSE / HORIZONTAL PLANE that motion ○ Transverse or XZ plane Divide into two categories: ○ Divides the body into upper and lower ○ Osteokinematics - Movements of the parts bony partners or segments that make up ○ Y axis / vertical axis a joint ○ Motions: ○ Arthrokinematics - Minute movements Medial and lateral rotation occurring within the joint (hip and shoulder) and between the joint surfaces Pronation and supination KINETICS (forearm) Eversion and inversion (foot) Concentrates on the forces that produce or resist the movement  Example: Individual points on the forearm SPECIAL CASES segment move at different velocities, with the Thumb velocity of each point related to its distance from the axis of motion; the farther the Its normal position is rotated 90° from the distance from the axis of motion, the greater plane of the hand the velocity of that point Flexion/extension: frontal plane DEGREES OF FREEDOM Adduction/abduction: sagittal plane The number of planes within which a joint Forearm supination and pronation with the moves elbow in flexion Maximal at three degrees (Shoulder & Hip) UNIAXIAL Motion no longer occurs on a longitudinal Joints that move in one plane around one axis but on an anterior-posterior axis axis Structural type: hinge or pivot Hip medial rotation and lateral rotation with the hip in flexion Flexed hip also rotates on an anterior-posterior axis OSTEOKINEMATICS Describes the movement that occurs between the shafts of two adjacent bones as the two body segments move with regard to each other Motion produced by muscles Examples: Interphalangeal, elbow, & radioulnar/humeroulnar joint TYPES OF MOTION OF OSTEOKINEMATICS Translatory, linear or rectilinear motion BIAXIAL The motion occurs along or parallel to an axis Joints moves around two axes, the All points on the moving object travel the same segments move in two planes distance, in the same direction with the same Structural type: Condyloid, ellipsoidal & velocity and at the same time saddle Example: Elevator moving straight up and down within an elevator shaft Sliding of the carpal bones Curvilinear motion Is another subset of linear motion in which the Examples: MCP/MTP, radiocarpal & CMC joint of object travels in a curved path the thumb Example: When tossing a ball to a friend TRIAXIAL Rotary or Angular motion Movements takes place about three main Occurs in a circle around an axis or a pivot joint axes, all of which pass through the joint’s Every point on the object attached to the axis center of rotation follows the arc of a circle Structural type: ball and socket joint Individual points on the object move at different Examples: Glenohumeral and velocities, and the velocity of each point is acetabulofemoral joint related to its distance from the axis of motion CIRCUMDUCTION  function and mobility An example of a well-coordinated, successive movement combination A motion in which the moving segment follows a circular path Occurs in triaxial joints and is actually a combination of straight plane motions KINEMATIC CHAINS Combination of several joints uniting successive segments JOINT SURFACES The more distal segments can have higher degrees of freedom than do proximal ones Ovoid OPEN KINEMATIC CHAIN (OKC) Radius of curvature varies from point to point Distal segment moves in space The ovoid articular surfaces of two bones ○ Reaching or bringing the hand to mouth forming a joint create a convex-concave paired ○ Kicking a ball relationship Segment motion is not dependent on another Most synovial joints segment, so one segment can either move or not move, regardless of what other segment in Sellar the chain are doing Have both convex-concave surfaces on each Movements are highly variable articulation bone Required for many skilled extremity movements Examples: Stability is sacrificed for mobility ○ CMC of the thumb ○ Sternoclavicular joint CLOSED KINEMATIC CHAIN (CKC) ○ Talocrucal joint Distal segment is fixed & proximal parts move Movement of one segment requires all the segment to move TYPES OF MOTION OF ARTHROKINEMATICS Goal: stability Examples: Chin up Push up Standing from a seated position

are vital for normal joint  One point of reference contacts new points OPEN PACKED POSITION across the adjacent surface Spinning Aka resting position The joint surfaces do not fit perfectly and are A rotatory or angular, motion in which one point of contact on each surface remains in constant incongruent contact with a fixed location on the other ○ Ligamentous and capsular structures surface Most normal joint movement has some are slack combination of rolling, sliding and spinning ○ Joint surfaces may be distracted ACCESSORY MOVEMENTS several millimeters Joint play ○ Allow the necessary motions of spin, Small simultaneous arthrokinematic motions roll and slide typically with an that amount to only a few millimeters of increase in accessory movements translatory motion or full range of motion is not possible and decreased joint friction Essential for normal, pain-free joint function ○ Capsule and ligaments are loosest or Cannot be performed voluntarily by the subject but rather require relaxation of muscle & most slack is the resting position application of passive movement SIGNIFICANCE For evaluation and treatment of joint motion problem In close-packed position, the joint has great mechanical stability with reduced need for CONVEX-CONCAVE RELATIONSHIP muscle forces to maintain the position Convex joint surface moves on the bone with the concavity — the convex joint surfaces move Examples: in the opposite direction to the bone segment ○ In gripping, when the MCP joints are in Concave joint surface moves on the bone with convexity — the concave joint surfaces move in 90° flexion, lateral motion (abduction) the same direction to the bone segment cannot occur CLOSE PACKED POSITION ○ In standing, hips and knees are in their The surfaces of a joint’s segments usually close-packed position match each other perfectly in only one KINETICS position of the joint; point of congruency Deals with forces that produce, stop or modify ○ The maximum area of surface
