JointsFunctions • Childbirth• Movement• Bone growth possible

Classification of Joints - Function

**How much movement they allow**

•Synarthrotic joints• Immovable

• Amphiarthrotic joints• Slightly movable

• Diarthrotic joints• Freely movable

Classification of Joints – Structure

(1) Fibrous joints• Dense connective tissues • Between bones in close contact

(2) Cartilaginous joints• Hyaline or fibrocartilage

(3) Synovial joints• Most complex• Allow free movement

• synarthrotic• flat bones• thin layer of CT

• Skull

(3) Synovial Joints

• Diarthrotic• 5 distinguishing features:

• Articular cartilage (hyaline)• Joint (articular) capsule• Joint cavity

• Synovial fluid• Ligaments

Synovial Joints: Movement

Factors that affect synovial joint stability (3)1. Articular Surfaces2. Ligaments3. Muscle Tone

Types of synovial joint movement1. Non-axial

2. Uniaxial3. Biaxial4. Multiaxial

Types of Synovial Joints

• Gliding (Plane)• Non-axial• Between carpals• Between tarsals

Types of Joint Movements

4 general movements1. GlidingGliding

9-27

Types of Joint Movements

Abduction (away from the midline)Adduction (towards the midline)

9-29

Movement in which one end

of an appendage remains

stationary while the other

end makes a circular motion

9-30

Turning around long

axis

◦ rotation of trunk,

thigh, head or arm

Medial (inwards)

Lateral (outwards)

9-31

◦Forearm

◦Supination

palm faces anterior

◦Pronation

palm faces posterior

9-32

Dorsiflexion - raising of the toes

Plantarflexion -toes point downward

Inversion - soles are turned medially

Eversion - soles face laterally

9-33

Protraction - movement

anteriorly on transverse

plane

◦ thrusting the jaw forward

◦ shoulders or pelvis forward

Retraction - movement

posteriorly

9-34

Elevation – upward vertical movement ◦ mandibles are elevated during biting

◦ clavicles during a shrug

Depression – downward vertical movement

9-35

When you touch your finger to your thumb

Grasping

Manipulation of objects

9-36

Bones pulling apart Stretching synovial joint capsule = increasing volume Increase volume = decrease pressure Decrease in volume means gasses lose solubility and form

bubbles◦ Cavitation

When pressure gets low enough, bubbles pop and that is the cracking sound

Takes about 25-30 minutes for gas to redissolve into joint. During this time you cannot crack that joint (it won’t make the sound)

Only 1 study done◦ Results – does not cause arthritis, may cause soft tissue damage and

decreased grip strength Due to repeated stretching of ligaments around joint

◦ Does show increased mobility9-41

SIGNS OF HYPERMOBILITY Can you touch the floor with the palms of your hands flat while the knees are straight? Can your elbows go beyond straight? Can your knees move beyond straight? Can you move your thumb to touch your forearm as shown? Can your little fingers be moved so they are perpendicular to the upper arm as shown?
