I still need to review a few more things, but once I review I will get on top of things. In this unit, I learned more about the anatomy of the shoulder, knee, and ankle and the different movements you can find in each.]]> 2018-12-10 03:51:07 UTC https://padlet.com/2003435/hqbq7nz1r9lk/wish/312765277 2003435 https://padlet.com/2003435/hqbq7nz1r9lk/wish/312778679 The muscles like the crest of ilium and deltoid tuberosity are principal movers of the glenohumeral joint. Some of the movements that occur with adduction, abduction, extension, flexion, medial rotation, and lateral rotation. Other muscles, such as the Trapezius, Levator Scapulae, (minor and major) rhomboids, and Scapula Thorastic joint, are responsible for supporting the scapulae and clavicles. Some movements with these muscles are retraction, protraction, elevation, depression, and upward rotation. In class, I took notes in a packet and I found that it helped to color code each different muscle. I learned about the rotator cuff and Mrs. Pila made an easier way to remember it, the acronym: SITS for the posterior RT muscles. This helps me with a way to remember the anatomy of the shoulder. Also, my partner Tala and I worked on an Anatomy Project that showed us how to measure the different angles of each movement of the shoulder. The more we practiced, the better we got at measuring. We also watched many different edpuzzles to help us understand the muscles, ligaments, and tendons as well as movements that surround the anatomy of the shoulder. Also, we did a reteaching video for the shoulder as well to show our knowledge.]]> 2018-12-10 05:34:39 UTC https://padlet.com/2003435/hqbq7nz1r9lk/wish/312778679 2003435 https://padlet.com/2003435/hqbq7nz1r9lk/wish/312778695 The function of the knee is secured by ligaments and the tendons of the muscles that cross it. The ligaments are important in limiting ranges of motion of the knee and securing the menisci. The knee joint consists of two condylar synovial joints between the femoral and tibial condyles and a gliding synovial joint between the patella and the femur. The movements are flexion and extension. In class we took notes with Mrs. Pila, worked with partners to learn more, and researched some ligaments, tendons, and bones that can be found near the knee joint. I used different colors to show the different crossed ligaments that can be found and saw different views of the knee joint. Also, Tala and I talked about the knee joint and researched the functions and movements as well as locations. Also, I took a quiz to prove my mastery, and I did pretty decent on it without the use of any notes. I liked the quiz because it made me realize I knew a little more than I thought. Also, Tala and I measured our Q-angle for knee discrepancies. It made me feel more confident as we practiced. The Q-angle helps us realize early on if we have anything irregular to know early on and to help us become more familiar with this stuff. ]]> 2018-12-10 05:34:48 UTC https://padlet.com/2003435/hqbq7nz1r9lk/wish/312778695 2003435 https://padlet.com/2003435/hqbq7nz1r9lk/wish/312778719 The muscles of the posterior leg are arranged into two components separated by a fascial septum. The superficial group, such as the two belly gastrocnemius, soleus, and plantaris) inserts by way of a common tendon, tendocalcaneus, and the Achilles tendon, and intramuscular junction. One of the movements is plantarflexion with the posterior leg. In the anterior lowerleg, some movements include dorsiflexion--toes face forward, and back to neutral from plantarflexion. In the lowerleg (towards the ankle), there are fibularias muscles, which includes personal muscles (fibularias longus), fibularias brevis, and there is also the fibularias tertius. On the superficial view, there's the anterior tibiliar. Some movements include eversion, dorsiflextion, and inversion. For the ankle, I've had some practice by taking notes in class. Color coding all the Fibularis muscles helps me know the different locations of each. In order to practice, Tala and I worked on a group project together. We attempted to measure the angle of our ankle through the movements (dorsiflexion, plantarflexion, inversion, and eversion). This helped me become more comfortable with the content. Also, watching the edpuzzles helped me learn more about the ankle. Lastly, I think what we learned from the last unit helped me learn about the ankle because in one of the past unit we had some practice with bandaging the ankle and it made me realize how much they all relate to each other.  ]]> 2018-12-10 05:34:57 UTC https://padlet.com/2003435/hqbq7nz1r9lk/wish/312778719 2003435 https://padlet.com/2003435/hqbq7nz1r9lk/wish/315620234 In Unit 4, we dealt with injuries that could occur to  athletes and how to recognize them. Tala and I worked really hard to do some research on injuries that could occur to the knee. Most knee injuries occur surrounding the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL). For example, there is the Terrible Traid of the knee where the Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL), the meniscus, and the meniscus are partially or fully torn. (the most serious unhappy traid injury is a partially or fully torn ACL). Most torn ACL's require surgery and can take 6-9 months to recover, especially when reconstruction is needed. All in all, it provides me with information in which could help me in the future if or when I go into then medical field in the future. After we did a lot of research, Mrs. Pila showed us an Arthroscopic surgery of the knee and it brought us an idea of how everything will look when the surgery occurs and how it all happens. ]]> 2018-12-18 17:36:02 UTC https://padlet.com/2003435/hqbq7nz1r9lk/wish/315620234 2003435 https://padlet.com/2003435/hqbq7nz1r9lk/wish/315625195 From Sports Medicine 1, I will carry all the assignments and videos I've done to remind me of all the bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and serious injuries that can be found within those areas. Because I want to be a doctor, I should be able to identify and recognize the different injuries in the body, especially in areas relating to the knee, ankle, and shoulder. These skills will impact me because I will be a better doctor to know how to properly talk to the patient. If a patient feels pain in a certain area, I should be able to give advice. I've become better at memorizing with this course. Also, as I look at a body part, I'm able to imagine how the muscle or bone may look like. During this course, I've learned how to do CPR, bandage properly, how to recognize injuries, and more. From all these emergency skills, I've improved the most on bandaging and CPR. I feel more confident to do it. These skills will impact me in case anyone ever needs emergency help or is in an emergency situation, I would be able to help. I've also mastered the movements of the knees and shoulder. Some movements (of any knee, ankle, or shoulder) may include: flexion, entension, upward rotation, downward rotation, and dorsiflexion, and plantarflexion. These skills will help me in the future because if I become a doctor it will help to know the movements in order to describe it. If there is an injury in a certain area, it's important to try to check any of the other movements. Also, these skills will just help me overall. In conculsion, I've learned a lot from this course. It was like baby steps to my future. :)]]> 2018-12-18 17:47:19 UTC https://padlet.com/2003435/hqbq7nz1r9lk/wish/315625195
