Chapter 31

MSK System 31

QuestionAnswer
osteoblasts responsible for bone growth by making new bone cells and secreting collagen
osteocytes regulate mineral uptake and release
osteoclasts dissolve minerals for release into the bloodstream
spongy bones contains red marrow
bones are classified as long, short, flat, or irregular
musculoskeletal system consists of bones, joints, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, and muscles
haversian system (or osteon) contains the blood and lymph vessels - transport nutrients to the bone cells and remove wastes.
A joint is the articulation point between two or more bone There are immovable, slightly movable, and freely movable joints
hinge (movable) elbow - Bidirectional to flex and extend
pivot Head of radius around ulna Rotational to supinate and pronate
saddle thumb - Circular clockwise and counterclockwise
Ball and socket Shoulder and hip joints Ball rotates within socket and moves up and down
condyloid Head-to-neck joint Up and down and side to side
Gliding Articulating surfaces of vertebrae Lateral and up and down
bursa fluid-filled sac that provides cushioning at friction points in a freely movable joint.
cartilage connective tissue, acts as cushion
ligaments join the bones of a joint together (bone to bone)
tendons connective tissue, provide joint movement, attach skeletal muscles to bones
fascia connective tissue, surrounds and separates muscles
muscle coverings contain vessels and nerves
muscle properties allow it to be electrically excited, cause it to contract, extend or stretch & provide elasticity
bones provide shape to the body
skeleton provide a framework for skin, support & protect internal organs, provide attachments for tendons & ligaments. contributes to movement
Red bone marrow form RBC, WBC & platelets
Bones store and release minerals, such as calcium and phosphorus
Bone is maintained by remodeling: existing bone is resorbed into the body (osteoblasts) to replace it
functions of muscles contraction of muscles, synchronization of muscle fibers. provide movement (shortening/stretching) & joint stability, maintain posture, produce body heat
Ergonomic risk factors force, repetition, posture
individual risk factors poor work practices, fitness & health habits
what is MSD? Musculoskeletal Disorders - pain or injuries in the human MSK system
common MSD's muscle/tendon strain, tendonitis, ligament sprain, tension neck syndrome, thoracic outlet compression, rotator cuff tendonitis, epicondylitis, radial tunnel, carpal tunnel, dequervain syndrome, digital neuritis, trigger finger, degenerative disease disc
MSD causes disease, trauma, malnutrition, aging Poor nutrition → Weak bones (lack Ca & Po) Inadequate protein → Muscle wasting
prevention of MSD weight bearing exercise, safety measures, nutrition for bone growth & density, steroids
Geniometry measurement of ROM of a joint
ROM Passive: moved by others active: moved by patient
grading system for muscle strength grade 5: normal strength grade 0: complete paralysis
muscle strength ability of move, working against the force of gravity
kyphosis dowager’s hump - an excessive forward curve of your spine
crepitation grating sound, as a result of stiffness of joint cartilage that thins and erodes
orthopedic refers to function & structure of the MSK system
SCHMID Fall Risk Assessment score >/= 3: patient at risk for falls
ankylosis the result of injury or disease in which the tissues of the joint are replaced by a bony overgrowth that completely obliterates the joint - Permanent fixation of a joint
isometric exercises involve generating tension (no movement) between two opposing sets of muscles - contraindicated patients with HTN, ↑ ICP, CHF (↑ HR & BP)
gradual mobilization move their limbs, turn in bed, transfer from bed to chair and back again, and stand and walk
adaptive shortening or contracture begins to form within 3 to 7 days after immobilization of a body part, and the process usually is complete in 6 to 8 weeks
