Musculoskeletal SystemFUNCTION! • Protection • Framework • Mobility • Reservoir • Blood cells • Minerals • Ca • Ph
Anatomy & PhysiologySKELETAL SYSTEM How many bones are in the human body? • 206 • 1,245 • 847 • 145 • 666
Bone Types • Long bones • Short bones • Flat bones • Irregular bones
Which of the following are formed in the bone marrow? • Red blood cells • White blood cells • Platelets • Hemoglobin • All of the above
Bone structure • Types of bone tissue • Compact bone • Dense • Spongy bone • Bone marrow
Bone Marrow Red Yellow Location Long bones Contents Fat • Locations • Flat bones • Contents • RBC • WBC • Platelets • Hgb
Bone Cells • Osteoblasts • Form matrix • Osteocytes • Maintenance • Osteoclasts • Dissolving & resorbing
Bone Maintenance • Modeling • Childhood • Remodeling • Adulthood
Cool Fact! Complete skeletal turnover occurs every 10 years
Joints • AKA: • Articulations • Defined • Where two or more bones meet
Synovial joints • Cavity filled with synovial fluid
Ligaments • Defined • Connects bones to bones • Function • Joint stability
Tendon • Define • Connects muscles to bone • Function • Joint movement
Muscles • Types of muscles • Skeletal muscles • Voluntary movement • Smooth muscles • Internal organs • Involuntary • Cardiac muscles • Heart muscle • Involuntary
Muscle structure • Muscle thick bundles of parallel fibers
Muscle contraction • EACH muscle cell is “excitable” • Receive and respond to stimuli • Skeletal muscle cells contract when motor neurons release acetylcholine (neurotransmitter)
Muscle contraction • Motor neuron • Acetylcholine • Muscle cells • Contraction
Muscle extension • Muscles extend when they relax
Muscle Tone • Nerve impulses maintain muscle tone. • Lack of muscle use atrophy • Muscle wasting
M/S system of the older adult • i in bone mass • Joint & disc dehydrate iheight • i flexibility • Hips & knees flex • Head tilted backward • Alt. center of gravity • h risk of falls
Assessment • Chief complaint • Pain • Limited mobility
Physical assessment • Gait • Movements • Posture
Physical Examination • Posture • What is this? • Kyphosis • h curve of the thoracic spine
Physical Examination • Posture • What is this? • Lordosis • h Curve of the lumbar spine
Physical Examination • Posture • What is this? • Scoliosis • Lateral curve of the spine
Physical assessment • Inspect & palpate
Physical assessment • Crepitus • Grating sound or sensation during ROM
Neurovascular status • CMS • Circulation • Color • Temp • Cap. refill • Motion • Weak / paralysis • Sensation • Paresthesia • Pain
Range of Motion • Flexion • Bend a joint • Extension • Straighten joint • Abduction • Move away from midline • Adduction • Move towards midline
Range of Motion Passive Active Independent • Total assist
Clinical Alert! • Never attempt to move a joint past its normal range of motion for the client or past the point at which pain is experienced.
Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) • What does an elevated ESR indicate? • Bone cancer • Osteoporosis • Inflammation • Anemia • Auto-immune disease
