Articulations!! (the Joints)
2
Section 1: Joint Design and Movement
Articulations (_____________________) Where two bones interconnect Bones are relatively inflexible so necessary to allow movement Reflect compromise between need for strength versus need for ______________________ Anatomical structure of each joint determines type and amount of movement possible Categories from range of motion and subgroups from anatomical structure
3
Joint types No Movement Limited Movement Free Movement
Have we seen this before? Limited Movement Can you think of any? Free Movement Examples?
4
Joint Design and Movement
Three functional categories _______________________ (no movement) Amphiarthrosis (little movement) ____________________________ (free movement) Synarthrotic and amphiarthrotic joints Relatively simple structure Direct connections between bones Diarthrotic joints Complex in structure Permit greatest range of motion
5
Synovial joints Components of synovial joints
___________________ cartilages Resemble hyaline cartilages Matrix contains more water comparatively Have no perichondrium Slick and smooth, so reduce friction Are separated by thin film of synovial fluid Articular Cartilage
6
Components of synovial joints (continued)
______________ fluid Similar in texture to egg whites Produced at the synovial membrane Circulates from areolar tissue to joint cavity Percolates through articular cartilages Total quantity is less than 3 mL Synovial fluid
7
Components of synovial joints (continued)
_________________ capsule Dense and fibrous May be reinforced with accessory structures (tendons and ligaments) Continuous with periosteum of each bone Joint capsule
8
Functions of synovial fluid
Lubrication With articular cartilage compression, synovial fluid is squeezed out and reduces friction between moving surfaces _______________________________ distribution Provide nutrients and oxygen, as well as waste disposal for the chondrocytes of articular cartilages Compression and reexpansion of articular cartilages pump synovial fluid in and out of cartilage matrix ________________________ absorption Distributes compression forces across articular surfaces and outward to joint capsule
9
Joint Accessory ____________________ (a pouch)
Small pocket filled with synovial fluid Often form in areas where tendon or ligament rubs against other tissues Reduce friction and act as shock absorbers Bursa
10
Accessory structures in knee (continued)
Fat pads Adipose tissue covered by synovial membrane Protect articular cartilages Act as packing material for joint _____________________ (a crescent) Pad of fibrous cartilage between bones of synovial joint May subdivide joint cavity and affect fluid flow or allow variations in shapes of articular surfaces Meniscus Fat pad
11
Accessory structures in knee Tendons of quadriceps Pass across joint
Accessory ligaments __________________, strengthen, and reinforce joint Intrinsic ligaments Localized thickening of joint capsule Example: cruciate liagments of knee ___________________ ligaments Separate from joint capsule May pass inside (intracapsular) or outside (extracapsular) the joint capsule Intracapsular example: cruciate ligaments Extracapsular example: patellar ligament Accessory structures in knee Tendons of quadriceps Pass across joint Limit movement Provide mechanical support
12
Synovial joints _________________ vs. strength in joints
Greater range of motion = ______________ joint Examples: Synarthrosis (strongest type of joint, no movement) Diarthrosis (far weaker but broad range of motion) _____________________________ (luxation) Movement beyond normal range of motion Articulating surfaces forced out of position Can damage joint structures No pain from inside joint but from nerves or surrounding structures
14
Types of motion and structural types of synovial joints
_____________________ Movement along two axes in one plane Angular motion Movement along two axes in one plane with additional change in angle ______________________ Special complex angular movement Proximal end of bone remains fixed while distal end can move in a circle (“trace circumference”) Rotation Bone ends remain fixed and shaft rotates
15

Models of Joint Motion Examples Gliding joint • Acromioclavicular and claviculosternal joints Clavicle • Intercarpal and intertarsal joints Manubrium • Vertebrocostal joints • Sacro-iliac joints Hinge joint • Elbow joints Humerus • Knee joints • Ankle joints • Interphalangeal joints Ulna Pivot joint • Atlas/axis Atlas • Proximal radio-ulnar joints Axis Ellipsoid joint • Radiocarpal joints • Metacarpophalangeal joints 2–5 • Metatarsophalangeal joints Scaphoid bone Ulna Radius Figure Anatomical organization determines the functional properties of synovial joints Saddle joint • First carpometacarpal joints Metacarpal bone of thumb Trapezium Ball-and-socket joint • Shoulder joints Scapula • Hip joints Humerus Figure 15
16
Flexion and extension Usually applied to movements of long bones of limbs but also axial skeleton ______________________ Anterior/posterior movement that reduces angle between articulating elements Lateral flexion Vertebral column bending to the side Dorsiflexion Flexion at ankle joint and elevation of sole ___________________ flexion (planta, sole) Extension at ankle joint and elevation of heel
17
Extension Anterior/posterior movement that increases angle between articulating elements __________________ Extension past anatomical position
18
Abduction and Adduction
Always refers to movements of appendicular skeleton, not axial Movements are usually toward or away from body midline For fingers or toes, movements are spreading digits apart or bringing them together ____________________ (ab, from) Movement away from body longitudinal axis in frontal plane ____________________ (ad, to) Movement toward body longitudinal axis in frontal plane
19
Circumduction Wrist Arm
Moving arm or thigh as if to draw a big _________________ at distal end of limb Wrist Arm
20
Rotation When applied to the trunk, described as left and right _____________________ When applied to limbs Medial rotation (internal or inward rotation) Anterior surface of limb toward trunk long axis Lateral rotation (external or outward rotation) Anterior surface of limb away from trunk long axis
21
Rotation (continued) Other special terms for rotation of forearm
____________________ Proximal end of radius rotates near ulna Distal end rolls across anterior ulnar surface Turns the wrist and hand from palm facing front to palm facing back Opposing movement Palm is turned anteriorly
22
Special movements _______________________ Protraction
Movement of thumb toward palm surface or other fingers Protraction Movement forward in anterior plane ___________________ Reverse of protraction Inversion (in, into + vertere, to turn) Twisting foot motion to turn sole inward ________________________ (e, out) Opposing movement to inversion
23
Special movements Opposition Retraction Protraction Figure Terms of more limited application describe rotational movements and special movements Eversion Inversion Depression Elevation Figure 23
25
Articulations ____________________skeleton articulations
Typically are strong but very little movement ___________________________ skeleton articulations Typically have extensive range of motion Often weaker than axial articulations

Disruption to normal joint function
Arthritis Damage to articular cartilages but specific cause varies Exposed surfaces change from slick, smooth-gliding to rough feltwork of collagen fibers increasing friction Rheumatism (pain and stiffness affecting the skeletal and/or muscular systems) is often a symptom Osteoarthritis Also known as degenerative arthritis or degenerative joint disease Generally affects individuals age 60 and older 25% of women, 15% of men Can result from cumulative wear and tear of joints or genetic factors affecting collagen formation 51
