Mobility vs. Stabililty

inversely related

mobility in a synovial joint is created with

synovial fluid

Ligaments, menisci, disks, plates, and labrum increase

Stability and gain bracing designed by these for mobility

Synarthroses

nonsynovial; interosseous connective tissue


fibrous: suture, gomphosis, syndesmosis


Cartilaginous: symphsis and synchondrosis

1. suture


2. Gomphosis


3. syndesmosis



1. coronal sutures interlock


2. tooth to mandible or maxilla


3. ligament, cord or aponeurotic membrane at tib/fib or radius/ulna

1. Symphysis


2. synchondrosis

1. fibrocartilage disks or plates; symphysis pubis; intervertebral joints; manubrium-sternum


2. hyaline growth cartilage that converts to bony union – 1st chondrosternal joint

Diarthroses

2 layered joint capsule


Joint cavity


Synovium lining capsule


Synovial fluid


Hyaline cartilage


Various additional structures

Joint Capsule
Variable in strength and composition depending on joint function and stresses on joint.
Outer fibrous layer: stratum fibrosum

type I collagen in parallel bundles; poor vascularity, good innervationStrong,


adds stability, has ability to heal, and have pain if pinched or torn

Inner layer: stratum synovium

with intima lining the joint space and subsynovial tissue that is highly vascular loose tissue for support



Synovial fluid


Lubricates and reduces friction

Lubricin

a glycoprotein for cartilage lubrication


Hyaluronic acid for viscosity and synovial lubrication

Thixotropic properties
viscosity varies inversely with joint velocity or rate of shear. Rapid movement – decreased viscosity and less resistance to motion. Slow motion – increased viscosity and greater resistance to motion.

Temperature affects viscosity – high temp, less viscous

Boundary lubrication
Lubricin for cartilage-on-cartilage lubrication. Most effective at low loads.
Fluid lubrication
hydrostatic pressure from compression forces cause "weeping" in and out of articular cartilage; (loading and unloading)
hydrodynamic lubrica
wedge of fluid viscosity keeps the joint surfaces apart (water balloon try pushing edges together but there is always a layer of fluid beteween; closed system);
elastohydrodynamic
elastic cartilage deforms to maintain fluid layer between surfaces, and boosted
Types of diarthrodial joints

Uniaxial – one plane around one axis


1 DF


Biaxial – two planes around two axes


2 DF


Triaxial (multiaxial) – three planes and three axes


3 DF

Uniaxial joints


Hinge – IP joints


Pivot (trochoid) – atlas & axis

Biaxial joints


Condyloid – MCP joint


Saddle – CMC of thumb

Triaxial joints

Plane - carpals and tarsals


Ball and socket – shoulder and h

Circumduction
is a combination of all 3 planes. Triaxial has circumduction
Link system
-movement at one joint in accompanied by movement at an adjacent joint
Kinematic chain
series of rigid links that interact

Closed:


Open

1 distal end fixed; ex: stance phase of gait


2 distal end moves freely or in unison with other joints; ex: swing phase of gait

Range of Motion
anatomic or physiologic motion
end-feel –
passive physiologic end range
hypermobility
exceeds normal limits
hypomobility
limited motion; maybe contracture of soft tissues

Osteokinematics


Movement of bones during physiologic joint motion

Arthrokinematics


Movement of the joint surfaces

Roll:


slide (glide):


Spin:

Movement of the joint surfaces


Roll – new points contact new points; ball rolling


Slide (glide) – one point contacts new points; grab ball so it doesn't roll then slide it


Spin – pure rotatory; same points in contact

Motion depends on shape of joint and usually is a combination of roll and glide resulting in
curvilinear motion with a moving axis
Ovoid joint
one convex and one concave
Sellar joint
both surfaces are convex & concave
RULES of Arthrokinematic Motion

1) If convex bone moves down, roll occurs in the same direction, glide occurs in opposite direction.


2) If concave bone moves down, roll & glide occur in the same direction

Accessory motions
Component motion, joint play

Component motion

motion occurring in a related joint that allows physiological motion to occur normally, Shoulder flexion requires AC, SC, ST motion
Joint play
motion occurring in a joint only as a response to an outside force

Distraction of the humeral head from glenoid


Finger rotation

Close-packed
full congruence of surfaces; usually extreme ROM; capsule and ligaments are taut, joint is compressed, minimal distraction is available, no further movement.
Loose-packed
incongruent surfaces; usually mid-position; ligaments and capsule lax, distraction available, allows for spine, roll, glide; maximal open packed position = rest position.
Pathokinesiology of joints

Disease – rheumatoid or osteoarthritis


Injury – compression/distraction/shearing


Ligament damage leads to instability and joint changes


Immobilization or stress deprivation – Table 2-8 & Case Application 2-11


Contractures, weaker bone, ligament and tendon


Overuse or repetitive injury

Exercise Effects on Joints

Bone – weight bearing exercise


Cartilage – application & removal of loads, still poorly understood


Tendon – progressive loading


Ligament – need more evidence about ligament response to exercise

Muscle'sfunction is to produce force for
mobility or stability
Muscle constantly battles

Muscle tension


Passive tension fromparallel elastic components.

Total tension =active + passive


Length-TensionRelationship

Optimal sarcomerelength at which muscle fiber can develop maximal tension


1.2 X resting length


Immobilization in ashort or long position will change the LT relationship

Activeinsufficiency:
forcecontraction. decreased force capability due to shortened or lengthened state.
Force-VelocityRelationship

As shorteningvelocity decreases, force development increases.


At zero velocity,the contraction is isometric.


With lengthening,force increases and then plateaus.

isokinetic


isoinertial

Isokinetic –constant angular velocity; changing torque through ROM


Isoinertial –constant load or resistance; parallels functional activities
