Pelvis

1. The reading notes that there was a definite tendency toward “Negrophilia” in parts of northern and western Europe in the late Middle Ages, and the common presumption that dark pigmentation inspired instant revulsion of the part of light skinned Europeans is, if not completely false, at least highly misleading (Fredrickson 26). The cult of Prester John and Ethiopia was one of several signs that blacks could be represented in a positive and dignified manner in the late Middle Ages. The reading…

fractured ribs and pelvis. Flail chest, which results from multiple ribs being fractured can be a life threatening injury. A fractured pelvis can cause life threatening bleeding due to injury to structures protected by the pelvis. If the pelvis ring is not damaged, the fracture is not as serious (Campagne, 2014). In the event the pelvis ring is broke, a pelvic splint should be utilized. Traction should be used to stabilize the femur. The femur should be immobilized before the pelvis to make sure…

Ideokinesis, a practice that provides physical benefits in terms of fluidity in movement, posture, and body alignment through the process of imagery and visualization, utilizes multiple techniques in order to train specific body systems such as the skeletal and nervous systems to adapt to newer and healthier neuromuscular methods. A significant mechanism used to teach the benefits of Ideokinesis is the 9 lines of movement. Reflecting on and working towards stabilizing the 9 lines of movement…

initiate you: Cephalo (head) pelvic (pelvis) disproportion (one's too enormous for the other) is quite a Latin word for "it is highly unlikely the baby will fit down there" for conveyance. Specialists additionally utilize this as a general term for an absence of progress in labor (your cervix isn't widening, or the head isn't plunging). Cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD) happens when an infant's head or body is too substantial to fit through the mother's pelvis. It is trusted that genuine CPD is…

The ilium articulates with the sacrum forming the sacroiliac joint which combines to other structures forming the pelvis. The pelvis is used for weight bearing in many position. In the study performed by Gordon Alderink he explains the correlation between the pelvis sacrum and ilium. The author states, “The pelvic bony structure is inherently stable. The primary function of the pelvis is to transmit the weight of the trunk and upper extremities to the lower limbs and distribute ground reaction…

adduction. Standing, where the fixed point is at the insertion on the femur, contraction will rotate the pelvis anteriorly[17]. 2.2.2 Psoas This muscle is only muscle group in human body with direct attachment to the spine, the pelvis and the femur. Therefore it has potential to influence, and influenced by movement at both of the spine and hip joints[18]. 2.2.3 Gluteal maximus muscle: superficial group The gluteus maximus muscle is the one of the largest muscle in the gluteal region and…

analysis, Owen Lovejoy greatly contributed to the analysis of the 1973 knee joint. Lovejoy, a forensic scientist and professor of anthropology at Kent University (Jstor.org), helped Dr. Johanson decipher the mystery of the knee, and also later found pelvis. Dr. Lovejoy concluded that it was a human knee because all the characteristics that it had which could only belong to species that was…

The first video starts off by showing the change of the New Mexico’s Valley of Fire’s land. It had changed because of volcano eruptions that occurred about 1,000 years ago. It made a river of lava over 40 miles long through the dessert. When the lava cooled off, it left the ground black leaving animals that needed camouflage in trouble. The rock pocket mouse uses the dessert sands for protection because it blends in with it. When the mouse moves onto the black ground it stands out to the…

lesions of the ureter or renal pelvis. The IVP has a higher sensitivity and specificity than an abdominal plain film for the detection of stones and provides data about the degree of obstruction. The IVP can also visualize both the bladder and the upper urinary tracts. It was previously the diagnostic procedure of choice, but is no longer because of potential contrast reactions, lower sensitivity, and higher radiation exposure. In-patient in whom the ureter or renal pelvis is poorly visualized…

the jaw shape was somewhere between the rectangular shape found in apes and the parabolic shape found in humans. Australopithecus afarensis also had pelvis and leg…
