What are the three components of Physical Rehab? |
Anatomy Biomechanics Physiology |
|
Define Anatomy |
Science of the shape and structure of the human body |
|
Define biomechanics |
Uses principles of physicstoquantitatively study how forces interact within aliving body |
|
Define Physiology |
Biologic Study of living organisms |
|
Kinematics |
Branch of mechanics that describes the motion of body, without regard to the forces or torques that may produce the motion |
|
What is Linear Motion |
All parts of rigid body move parallel to and in same direction as every other part of the body. May occur in Straight Line (Rectilinear) Or Curved Line (Curvilinear) |
|
What is Rotation |
Rigid body moves in a circular path around a pivot point. |
|
What is the Axis of Rotation |
Pivot point for angular motion Motion of rotation is zero at the axis |
|
What are the Units of Measurements |
Translation -Meter (SI) -Feet (English) Rotation -Radians (SI) -Degrees (English) |
|
What are the 3 cardinal planes |
Sagittal - Flexion/Extension Frontal - Abd/Add Horizontal - Rotation |
|
What axis of rotation does the shoulder have? |
All 3 axes of rotation - due to imperfect shape of the bones in our joints, the axes will move |
|
What are the degrees of freedom? |
# of independent direction of movement allowed. Shoulder - 3 Wrist - 2 Elbow - 1 |
|
What are asscesory movement |
Transnational movements - Linear Must occur to allow motion at the joint. |
|
What is implied by increased translation |
Ligament Laxity Increased Instability Hypermobile Flexibility |
|
What is the Kinematic chain |
Series of segmented links such as the pelvis, trunk, shoulders, elbows, and wrists. Example - Golf Swing |
|
Define open chain |
Refers to the hand or foot being free to move Arm curl/Leg extension |
|
Define close chain |
Refers to the hand or foot being fixed coming up from a squat |
|
Define Osteokinematics |
Artiulcation of two or more bony/limb segments "joint" Distal on Proximal (femur on proximal tibia) |
|
Define arthrokinematics |
Motion that occurs between the articular surfaces of the joints roll, slide, spin |
|
Define Roll |
Occurs when the points of contact of the joint are constantly changing. same direction as the motion of the bone Defined by long axis of the bone Extension |
|
Define Slide |
Occurs on one point online Determined by the direction of the joint surface |
|
Define Spin |
Occurs when the axis remains stationary happens in external/Internal rotation and pronation/supination |
|
Convex moving on concave |
Roll and slide move in opposite directions ex: bending knee FEMUR -posterior roll -antertior slide |
|
Concave moving on convex |
Roll and slide moving in the same direction Tibia roll and slide anterior. |
|
Example of Pronation |
Head of the radius on the capitulumm of the humerus SPIN |
|
Example of Roll Slide and Spin |
Knee Extension. Femur internally (Tibia External) rotates during last 30 degree to allow for full extension |
|
What are kinetics |
Branch ofmechanics thatdescribes theeffects of forcesonthe body Forces are push or pull on an object that can stop or modify movements |
|
Newtons Second Law |
F=ma If mass is constant the F is direction proppotional to acceleration |
|
When does F = 0 |
Acceleration = 0 // Equilibrium |
|
Define Force/Load |
Move, Fixate, or stablize Tension, Compresion, Bending, Shear, Torsion, Combined loading |
|
Healthy vs Weakened Tissue and change |
H: able to partially resist change W: may not be able to adapt |
|
Define Viscoelastic |
Physical properties associated with stress-strain curve change as a function of time. |
|
Stress-Strain Relationship |
KNOW THE GRAPH Toe Region - laxity of tissue Linear/Elastic Region - stress Yield Point - cannot go beyond without change Plastic region - perm change Ultimate failure - complete rupture |
|
What is Creep |
Progressive strain of a material when exposed to a constant load over time |
|
Internal Forces vs External Forces? |
Int: Produced by structures located within the body. -Active - stim muscle -Passive - tension in stretched periarticular tissue Ext: Produced by forces acting outside the body -Gravity//Ext Load//Physical Contact |
|
What is a Vector |
Quantity specified by magnitude and direction Length as important as magnitude |
|
What is Static Wuilibrium |
When both forces are equal Holding elbow in flexion |
|
Define Torque |
Product of Force x Moment arm MA: perp distance between axis of rotation and foce Where you push is important |
|
Muscle and joint interaction with Force |
Force with MA will cause torque, and produce movement (rotation) Force w/o MA will not cause Toque and no rotation |
|
Define Isometrics |
Muscle producing a pulling force while maintain constant length No motion |
|
Define Concentric motion |
Muscle produces a pulling force as it contracts (shortens) Int Torq > Ext Torq Producing rotation in the direction of pull of activated muscle |
|
Define Eccentric motion |
Muscle produces a pulling force as it is being elongated Ext Torq > Int Torq - joint rotates in direction of larger ext torque |
|
Define Contraction |
When am uscle is activated/stimulated by nervous system "Draw together" |
|
Define Agonist |
Muscle group most directly related to a movement |
|
Define Antagonist |
Muscle group that has an opposite action of a particular agonist |
|
Define Synergist |
Muscles that cooperate during a particular movement Ex: FCU/FCR work together to flex wrist |
|
Define Force Couples |
Tow or more muscle produce forces is IN different linear direction yet resultant torque is in the same rotary direction |
|
Define Level |
"raise up" Int and Ext forces produce torques through a system of bony levers in the body |
|
What is a first class lever? |
Int and Ext forces typically act in similar linear directions, although the y produce torques in opposing rotary direction |
|
Example of First class lever |
Gravity pushing on head and extensor muscle holding it up |
|
What is a second class lever? |
Axis of rotation located at one end of a bone and muscle force is greater than external force. uncommon in MSK system |
|
Example of Second Class Lever |
