Lecture 1

Question 1

anatomical position

Answer 1

Left is right, right is left
legs together with toes pointing forward
aplms forward

Question 2

Coronal plane

Answer 2

“crown”
in line with coronal suture (skull)
front and back sides

Question 3

Sagital plane

Answer 3

“sagitta” = arrow (arrow piercing front to back)
left and right halves -down median plane
non-midline = parasagittal planes
paralled to coronal

Question 4

Axial plane

Answer 4

Transverse plane -width of body -cross sections

Perpendicular to both sagittal and coronal planes

Question 5

What are the Coronal, sagittal and axial planes collectively called?

Answer 5

Cardinal planes

Question 6

What is the non-cardinal plane?

Answer 6

Oblique plane

Question 7

What are Median structures?

Answer 7

lie on the Midline of the body

Question 8

What is Caudal?

Answer 8

Inferior

superior = cranial

Question 9

What terms are used interchangably with superior and inferior?

Answer 9

Cranial and CAUDAL

Question 10

Proximal / Distal

Answer 10

relative to trunk
GI tract + arteries: Proximal=upstream. Distal = downstream
Veins and lymph = drainage = distal –> proximal

Question 11

Interior/Exterior

Answer 11

centre of organ or cavity

Question 12

Ipsilateral/Contralateral

Answer 12

same side of body/opposite side of body

Question 13

What does Contralateral mean?

Answer 13

Opposite side of the body

Question 14

What does ipsilateral mean?

Answer 14

Same side of the body

Question 15

Hyperextension

Answer 15

movement beyond necessary to straigthen joint

Question 16

Adduction/Abduction

Answer 16

relative to median plane

Question 17

Protraction/Retraction

Answer 17

moving something anteriorly, moving a part posteriorly

Question 18

Circumduction

Answer 18

form a circle

-combination of flexion, abduction, extension, adduction so that the distal part forms a circle

Question 19

Supination/Pronation

Answer 19

Rotation so underside faces anteriorly/posteirorly

Question 20

What is the pairing for opposition?

Answer 20

Reposition

-returning thumb to be in anatomical position

Question 21

Lateral bending

Answer 21

neck from side to side

Question 22

Superficial/deep

Answer 22

closer/further to body surface

Question 23

Compartments and Infection/Tumour

Answer 23

Infection contained

doesnt spread throughout body as fast

Question 24

Compartments and Pressure

Answer 24

Blood/fluid build up
Fascia cannot stretch
Compress Blood Vessels
No bloody supply
Ischemiac
\+(Necrotic)
Surgery=Cut Fascia

Question 25

Athletes compartments syndrome

Answer 25

Lots of training
muscles buldge (compression)
fluid doesnt get out as fast as is coming in
Surgery to cut fascia to avoid compartment syndrome

Question 26

Can Fascia stretch?

Answer 26

Relatively unyeilding
Muscle bellies contract and expand
-they compress the veins and force the blood in these vessels to return to the heart

Question 27

How does bloody flow, dense fascia and muscles work in unison?

Answer 27

Deep fascia is relatively unyeilding/doesnt stretch

Muscles contract and relax, compressing and relaxing to force blood in the vessels to return to the heart
