25
What is abduction and adduction?
``` Abduction = movement (away) from midline of body Adduction= movement toward midline ```
26
What is a circumduction movement?
combination of movements; circular cone shaped pattern | 1) flexion, (2) abduction, (3) extension, (4) adduction
27
What is protraction?
mostly linear movement along plane parallel to the group/away from midline (Ex. Reaching arms forward)
28
What is retraction?
mostly linear movement along plane but toward the midline | Ex. Pulling arms backward
29
What is anatomical position?
human body standing upright position, eyes facing forward, feet parallel and close together, arms at the sides of the body w/palms facing forward
30
what is the fundamental position?
sames as anatomical except palms face the sides of the body
31
Bilateral
two or both sides
32
Contralateral
opposite sides
33
Ipsilateral
same side
34
shoulder horizontal abduction
Moving the arm perpendicular to the body and out to the side
35
Shoulder horizontal adduction
Moving the arm perpendicular to the body and back to the midline
36
Radial deviation
Wrist abduction with bending to the thumb side
37
Ulnar deviation
Wrist adduction with bending to the pinky side
38
Lateral bending
trunk moves sideways (bends)
39
Rotation
Movement of a bone or part around a longitudinal axis
40
Medial rotation
rotation toward midline
41
Lateral Rotation
Rotation away from the midline
