synarthrosis
no movement
amphiathrosis
slight movement
diathrosis
freely moveable
“antrho, syn, amphi, chondro, dia” mean…
joint, together, slight, cartilagenous, through
classification of joint (structural and functional)
structural- based on type of tissue between bones (fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial)
functional- based on amount of movement (synarthrosis, amphiathrosis, diathrosis)
fibrous classification
made of collagen fibers…sutures, gomphosis, syndesmosis
cartilagenous classification
symphysis, costochondral joints and intervertebral discs (fibrocartilage), epiphyseal plate, 1st rib and sternum (hyaline)
synovial classification
always diathrotic
types of tissue for all structural classification
fibrous, cartilagenous, and synovial
specific synovial joint tissue types (diarthrotic )
fibrous capsule- dense irregular CT, continuous with periosteum
synovial membrane- areolar CT covered by few scattered cells
synovial fluid- secreted by synovial membrane, slippery, reduces friction between bones forming the joint, composed of proteoglycans
what is bursa
membrane bound pocket filled with synovial fluid
where is bursa
found where tendons and ligaments rub against bone or other tissue
function of bursa
reduce friction, shock absorption
what is tendon sheath
a bursa extending along tendon for some distance
function of tendon sheath
permits the tendon to stretch and not adhere to the surrounding fascia
what is movement at a joint affected by?
soft tissue, shapes of condyles, and ligaments
types of joint movements
angular movement, rotation, supination, pronation, inversion, eversion, opposition and circumduction, flexion and extension, and plantar/dorsiflexion
angular movement of extremeties
flexion and extension
angular movement
hyperextension/flexion of torso, hyperextension/flexion of neck, flexion/extension/hyperextension of wrist/hand
rotation
neck, arm (medial and lateral)
supination
radius and ulna are parallel
pronation
radius rotates over ulna
inversion and eversion
foot
opposition
thumb and fingers
