This unit I liked learning about the 4 anatomical joints (fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial, and synostosis) helped me see how each joint type supports different levels of mobility and stability in the body. It also allowed me to identify the 3 planes of movement the saggital, frontal, and transverse planes. The diagrams we did allows me to list the 6 characteristics of the synovial joint

Articular cartilage: Covers the ends of bones for smooth movement

Joint capsule: Encloses the joint and contains synovial fluid
Synovial fluid: Lubricates the joint for smooth motion
Ligaments: Provide stability by connecting bones
Bursa: Cushion the joint, reducing friction
Meniscus: Provides shock absorption in certain joints (e.g., knee)

I can also identify all the bones of the appendicular skeleton. Like the scapula, clavicle, humerus, radius, ulna, femur, tibia, and fibula. Over all I learned so much about the human body this unit.

First Aid Skills

Doing this skill in person over and over helped me master it.

Taping skills

260008_15 — 2024-12-16 19:34:32 UTC

Watching a peer do the taping and doing the taping slowly helped me understand how and why it works.

Epi pen

Remove the EpiPen from the protective carrier tube by tipping and sliding it out.
2. Form a fist around the EpiPen with the orange tip pointing down. Pull off the blue safety release.
3. Hold with the orange tip pointing toward the middle of the outer thigh. 4. Swing and press the orange tip firmly into the outer thigh until you hear a “click.” Keep holding it firmly against the thigh for 3 seconds.
5. Remove the EpiPen from the thigh and massage the area for 10 seconds. 6. Call 911 and seek immediate medical attention. Tell them that your child has had an allergic reaction and that the EpiPen

Q angle measuring Knee lab

Helped me master measuring Knee Q angle. Because we repeatedly measured our partners. And watched our partners measure our own.

Goniometer Assignment

260008_15 — 2024-12-20 15:41:24 UTC

Taught me about ROM. How gender can influence rom. And muscle mass can tighten rom because more muscle means the person is tighter overall.

Ankle Special Testing

260008_15 — 2024-12-20 15:45:12 UTC

Taught me more about ankle anatomy. Aswell as these test that are run on the ankle. Also taught me what they are testing for. And how to successfully complete them.

Knee anatomical identification

260008_15 — 2024-12-20 15:47:30 UTC

Helped me remember the anatomy of the knee. And where certain parts of the knee actually physically are. Also helped me remember names of certain parts of the knee.
