JOINTS of the Skeletal System JOINTS Definition Function Joints (articulations) are functional junctions between bones. Bind parts of the skeletal system. Joints vary considerably in structure and function. Make possible bone growth Permit parts of the skeleton to change during childbirth. CLASSIFICATIONS OF JOINTS By degree of Movement By Type of Tissue that binds bones together at each junction. Immovable Synarthrotic • Fibrous Slightly Movable Amphiarthrotic • Cartilaginous Freely Movable Diarthrotic • Synovial JOINTS • 3 Types of Joints by Tissue Type. • Fibrous- Immovable, Synarthrotic :connect bones, no movement. (skull and pelvis). ( exception- fibrous joint between distal ends of tiba and fibula have limited movement) • Cartilaginous- slightly movable, Amphiarthrotic bones are attached by cartilage(hyaline), a little movement (spine, first rib, symphysis pubis). • Synovial- freely movable, Diarthrotic much more movement than cartilaginous joints. Articular ends of the bones are covered with hyaline cartilage and a surrounding, tubular capsule of dense connective tissue holds them together. Most Joints within the Skeleton are Synovial Joints Figure 5.28 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5.51 KNEE JOINT TERMS TO KNOW The articular ends of the bones in a synovial joint are covered with hyaline cartilage and a surrounding tubular capsule of dense connective tissue holding them together Joint Capsule. Joint Capsule-composed of an outer layer of ligaments and an inner lining of synovial membrane, which secretes synovial fluid. (like uncooked egg whites that lubricate joints) • Menisci-flattened, shock absorbing pads of fibrocartilage between the articulating surfaces of bones. (in some joints). • Bursae-joints that contain menisci may also have fluid filled sacs assoc. w/them. Each bursae are lined w/synovial membrane. Commonly located between tendons and underlying bony prominences. Aid in the movement of tendons that glide. • Types of Synovial Joints Based on Shape and Movement Figure 5.29a–c Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide Types of Synovial Joints Based on Shape and Movement Figure 5.29d–f Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide SYNOVIAL JOINTS Largest group in the skeleton BALL AND SOCKET Characteristics. • Bone w/egg shaped head articulates w/cup shaped cavity of another bone. • Wider range of motion/permits mvmt in all planes. • Allows rotational mvmnt around a central axis. • Shoulder and hip CONDYLOID/ELLIPSOIDAL JOINT Characteristics • Oval shaped condyle of one bone fits into elliptical cavity of another bone. • Between metacarpals and phalanges • Variety of movement in diff planes. • No rotational mvmt. GLIDING JOINTS OR PLANE JOINTS Characteristics Articulating surfaces are nearly flat or slightly curved. Most joints of the wrist and the ankle. Articular processes of adjacent vertebrae. Allow sliding and twisting. Sacroiliac joints and joints formed by ribs 2-7 w/sternum. HINGE JOINT Characteristics • Convex surface of one bone fits into the concave surface of another. • Elbow, phalanges, knee. PIVOT JOINT Characteristics • Cylindrical surface of one bone rotates w/in a ring formed of bone and ligament. • Mvmt limited to the rotation around a central axis. • Joint between prox and distal ends of radius and ulna. SADDLE JOINT characteristics • This type of joint occurs when the touching surfaces of two bones have both concave and convex regions with the shapes of the two bones complementing one other and allowing a wide range of movement. • (Thumb) THE SHOULDER JOINT IN DETAIL Ball and Socket- Synovial • Head of humerus • Glenoid cavity of scapula • Coracoid/acromion processes of scapula • Dense connective tissue/muscle hold together. • Capsule loose-unable to support alone/muscles and ligaments aid. • Tendons of several muscles blend w/fibrous layer of capsule/form rotator cuff –supports shoulder. Ligaments of shoulder joint • Coracohumeral ligament-broad band of conn tissue, connects coracoid process of scapula to the greater tubercle of the humerus. Strengthens the superior portion of the joint capsule. • Glenohumeral ligaments- 3 bands of fibers that appear as thickenings in the ventral wall of the joint capsule. Extend from edge of glenoid cavity to lesser tubercle of the anatomical neck of humerus. Ligaments of Shoulder Joint continued • Transverse Humeral Ligament-narrow sheet of conn tissue, runs btwn lesser and greater tubercles of the humerus. Forms a canal thru which the long head of the biceps brachii muscle passes. Watch the following rotator cuff repair and shoulder tutorial . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z C4sN_uC8dQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D 3GVKjeY1FM Glenoid Labrum and Bursae • Glenoid Labrum-comp. of fibrocartilage. Attached along margin of glenoid cavity and form a rim w/ thin free edge that deepens the cavity. • Subscapular bursa-btwn joint capsule and tendon of subscapularis muscle. • Subdeltoid bursa-btwn joint capsule and deltoid muscle. • Subacromial bursa-btwn joint capsule and acromion process of scapula. • Subcoracoid bursa-btwn joint capsule and coracoid process of scapula. Continuous w/synovial cavity SHOULDER JOINT Ligaments and Bursae Characteristics • Shoulder joint capable of wide range of movement b/c of looseness of attachments and large articular surface of humerus compared to shallow depth of glenoid cavity. • Flexion, extension, adduction, abduction, rotation circumduction. • Weak b/c bones mainly held together by supporting muscles instead of bony structures and strong ligaments. • Easily displaced/dislocated. • Dislocations/displacements commonshoulders, knees, fingers and jaw. ELBOW JOINT IN DETAIL- HINGE JOINT COMBO W/PLANE JOINT Includes • 2 articulations-1) hinge joint btwn trochlea of humerus and trochlear notch of ulna- elbow joint 2) plane joint btwn capitulum of the humerus and a shallow depression (fovea) on the head of the radius. Radio-ulnar joint • Joint capsule completely encloses and holds together. • Ulnar and radial collateral ligaments thicken the 2 joints and fibers from a muscle (brachialis) in the arm reinforce its anterior surface. • Ulnar collateral ligament-thick band of dense connective tissue. • Radial collateral ligament- strengthens the lateral wall of the joint capsule. • Anular ligament of the radius-encircles the head of the radius keeping the head in contact w/ the radial notch of the ulna. • Adipose tissue- form pads btwn syn membrane and fibrous portion of joint capsule. Movement • Hinge-type movement between humerus and ulna. • Rotation- head of radius is free to rotate in the anular ligament. Allows pronation, supination of the forearm. HIP JOINT- BALL AND SOCKET Includes Major Ligaments of hip joint • Head of femur • Ileofemoral ligament • Acetabulum • Pubofemoral ligament • Ligament capitus- attaches to a pit (fovea capitus) on head of the femur and to connective tissue in acetabulum-this attachment carries bv to head of femur. • Ishiofemoral ligament • Muscles surrd joint capsule of hip • Tighter than shoulder Acetabular labrum-horse shoe shaped ring of fibrocartilage at rim of acetabulum- deepens acetabulum. • Wide variety of mvmtflexion,extension,abduction,rotation circumduction • One of the most replaced joints • KNEE JOINT Characteristics • Largest and most cx synovial joint. • Consists of: medial and lateral condyles at distal end of femur and the medial and lateral condyles at the proximal end of the tibia. • Femur also articulates anteriorly w/ patella. • Functions largely as a hinge jointflexion and extension. • Articulations btwn femur and tibia allow for some rotation • Joint btwn femur and patella –plane joint. • Joint capsule is thin, ligaments and tendons strengthen it. Ligaments that strengthen joint capsule 2 ligaments in the joint. • Patellar ligament • Oblique popliteal • Anterior cruciate ligament • Arcurate popliteal ligament • Posterior cruciate ligament • Tibial collateral ligament • 2 Menisci • Fibular collateral ligament • Several bursae • Cruciate ligaments • Suprapatellar • Prepatellar • Infrapatellar Movement • Basic structure of knee joint permits flexion and extension-hinge joint. • Aslo when knee is flexed rotation is possible. JOINTS AND MOVEMENT • Skeletal muscle action prod. mvmt at synovial joints. • One end of muscle attached to a relatively immovable or fixed part on one side of a joint, and the other end of the muscle is fastened to a movable part on the other side. • When the muscle contracts its fibers pull its movable end, the insertion toward it’s fixed end. The origin and its movement occurs at the joint. TYPES OF MOVEMENT TO KNOW • Flexion- bending parts at a joint so that the angle between bones decreases and the parts come closer together. Bicep curl • Extension-Straightening parts at a joint so that the angle between them increases and parts move farther apart. Straightening knee. • Hyperextension-the extension of the parts at a joint beyond anatomical position. Bending head back beyond upright position. Often results in injury. • Dorsiflexion-Movement at the ankle the bring foot closer to the shin. Rocking back on heels. • Plantar Flexion-Movement at ankle that brings foot farther from shin. Tippy toes. • Abduction-Moving part away from midline. Spreading. • Adduction-Moving part toward midline. Together. • Rotation-Moving a part around an axis. Medial rotation toward midline. External away from midline TYPES OF MOVEMENT CONTINUED • Circumduction-Moving a part so that its end follows a circular path. Moving finger in circular motion w/out moving hand. • Supination-Rotation of the forearm so the palm is upward or facing anteriorly. In anatomical position. Supine- lying face up on back. • Pronation-Rotation of the forearm so the palm is downward or facing posteriorly. Pronebody lying face down. • Eversion-Turning the foot so the plantar surface faces laterally. • Inversion-Turning foot so that the plantar surface faces medially. • Protraction-Moving a part forward. Thrusting head forward. • Retraction-Moving a part backward. Pulling head backward. • Elevation-Raising a part . Shrugging shoulders. • Depression-Lowering a part..Drooping shoulders. IMAGES OF MOVEMENT IMAGES OF MOVEMENT IMAGES OF MOVEMENT IMAGES OF MOVEMENT IMAGES OF MOVEMENT Diseases and Conditions of the Skeletal System/Joints ARTHRITIS BURSITIS • Inflammation of the Bursa (fluid filled sac surrounding the joint). • A bursa can become inflamed from injury, infection (rare in the shoulder), or due to an underlying rheumatic condition. • Bursitis is typically identified by localized pain or swelling, tenderness, and pain with motion of the tissues in the affected area. TENDONITIS • Sometimes the tendons become inflamed for a variety of reasons, and the action of pulling the muscle becomes irritating. If the normal smooth gliding motion of your tendon is impaired, the tendon will become inflamed and movement will become painful. This is called tendonitis, and literally means inflammation of the tendon. • The most common cause of tendonitis is overuse. CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME • Any condition that causes swelling or a change in position of the tissue within the carpal tunnel can squeeze and irritate the median nerve. Irritation of the median nerve in this manner causes tingling and numbness of the thumb, index, and the middle fingers, a condition known as "carpal tunnel syndrome." GOUT • Gout is a disease that results from an overload of uric acid in the body. This overload of uric acid leads to the formation of tiny crystals of urate that deposit in tissues of the body, especially the joints. When crystals form in the joints it causes recurring attacks of joint inflammation (arthritis). Chronic gout can also lead to deposits of hard lumps of uric acid in and around the joints and may cause joint destruction, decreased kidney function, and kidney stones.
