Every joint has a different purpose and function. For example, the hinge joint can extend but not flex, while a ball and socket joint can extend and flex. Another difference is that pivot joint can move left and right but not up and down unlike a hinge joint.

The three plane movements shown above are transverse, sagittal, and coronal.

The transvere plane of movement would indicate movement within the horizon of the body and for sagittal it would be movement vertically. Lastly, coronal movement is within the front (anterior) and back (posterior) plane of the body

The appendicular skeleton includes the upper extremity and lower extremity of the body. Starting from the top, the upper extermity appendicular skeleton includes the clavicle and scapula then moving down is the humerus to the radius and ulna. After that is the carpals, metacarpals and to the phalanges.

In the lower extremity it starts with the pubic bone, then moves down to the femur and on the knee is the patella. After the patella is the tibia and fibula which descends to the tarsals and hallux.

As pictured above, there are 6 characterisitcs within a synovial joint. Starting from the middle of the joint is the two bons that meet that are covered by cartilage on both bones. Past the cartiliage is the synovial membrane between the cartilage and the fluid which is in the joint space. Supporting the joint is the ligamentous support which essentially upholds the joint. Lastly, is the synovial capsule which further proteccts the joint surrounding the entirety of it.

In the first picutre I was utilizing a epipen. First I had taken the cover off the pen and then stabbed it into my partners inner thigh. Lastly, I told them to rub their thigh. In the second photo was a product of me taping my partners hand.

Universal precautions are necessary to ensure the safety of others and the pateint. For example, before the practice epipen i introduced myself, put on gloves, and thoroughly ensured the patient was well. Universal precautions keep the safety of others prioritize and ensure that the injured person is getting the best possible treatment ethically.

Sports medicine professions range from physical to emotional and can intertwine into other meidcal professions. For example, an athletic trainer can refer someone to a physical therapist that treats all injuries, whether or not it is related to a sports injury. Moreover, a psychiatrist or therapist can help an athlete who had a brain injury or were mentally tramautized by a physical injury they had.

Knee Explaination

251631_3 — 2024-12-18 06:22:29 UTC

Through these notes I learned about major aspects of the knee from the major muscles and tendons, candyle's, and the purpose of each landmark. I liked that I was able to apply the anatomy of the knee to other aspects of the class: the labs, other worksheets, and diagnoising possible issues in the knee. Although I did my best, I could have applied this knowledge in my other classes like Honors Anatomy and Strength and Conditiong to strengthen my knowledge. I hope to learn more about the interactions of the knee with the rest of the body and how that applies to medical issues that can progress over time.

I enjoyed learning about the complexities of the ankle and how important it truly is to the entirety of the body. I learned about the interactions of the muscles, specifc landmarks of the ankles, how to identify where the specfic bones of the ankle are, and each function of the bones in the ankle. I could have applied myself more when we had identified the ankle bones and tried my best to ensure that I was fully comprehending what I had indentified. I hope to learn more about the interactions of the bones in the muscles and how they aid eachother in movements.

I had enjoyed learning about how to indentify problems within the knee, specifcally related to injuries towards the ACL and being able to apply it in real time. I had learned about how to properly diagnosis issues with the knee, how to identify such issues in specific muscles, and executed them. I could have done better at attempting the knee lab multiple times and practiced it a little more to ensure that I was fully absorbing the information, gaining more practice and furthering my knowledge even more. Lastly, I want to learn more about what leads up to these injuries, how the injuries are treated, and how patients react to such issues.

Ankle Evaluation

251631_3 — 2024-12-18 17:43:25 UTC

I enjoyed being able to attempt the ankle evaluation on my partner and learning about how each test is utilize to diagnosis problems in the ankle. I learned about how to properly postion someone, which force to apply, how to test certain injuries, and how to indentify if the person is injured or not. I could have done better by getting more practice in and furthering my knowledge by applying it to other classes, specifically anatomy. I hope to learn about how each test is used in serve situations, how atheltic trainers apply these techniques after, and other possible tests for the ankle.
