SKELETAL DISORDERS
4 types of fractures
- closed (doesn’t penetrate skin)
- open/compound (penetrate skin)
- green stick (incomplete, on one side)
- comminuted (shattered)
SKELETAL DISORDERS
what is osteoporosis?
bone mass decline
SKELETAL DISORDERS
1) what is osteoarthritis?
2) caused by:
3) what can form that restricts movement
1) degenerative disease
2) age , wear + tear
traumatic sport injury
deterioration of cartilage
3) bone spurs
SKELETAL DISORDERS
what is rheumatoid arthritis ?
autoimmune disorder
cartilage attacked
inflammation
joint fuses
SKELETAL DISORDERS
skeletal muscles functions (4)
MOVEMENT
POSTURE
thermoregulation
store + move substances
SKELETAL DISORDERS
define:
ORIGIN
INSERTION
ORIGIN : tendon attachment NEAREST centre of body
INSERTION : tendon attachment FURTHEST centre of body
SKELETAL DISORDERS - rotational movement
what is it created by?
what’s the equation for it?
torque
TORQUE = Force x perpendicular distance from pivot
SKELETAL DISORDERS
what does a longer lever arm do in rotational movement?
increase torque
decrease rom
decrease joint angular veloc (speed)
SKELETAL DISORDERS
CONCENTRIC
ECCENTRIC
ISOMETRIC
CONCENTRIC: muscle shortening in tension
ECCENTRIC: muscle lengthening in tension
ISOMETRIC: muscle constant length in tension
SKELETAL DISORDERS
1) AGONIST
2) ANTAGONIST
3) STABILISER
4) SYNERGIST
1) muscle control/perform movement
2) appose agonist
3) contract, stabilise joint
4) assist agonist
