JOINTS

Various joint types in the human body are categorized based on their mobility, including diathroses (freely movable), synarthroses (immovable), and amphiarthroses (slightly movable)

JOINTS

JOINTS FLEXIBILITY

DEVICES USE FOR MEASURING JOINT RANGE AND MOTION
LEIGHTON FLEXOMETER
ELECTROGONIOMETER
GONIOMETER
MEASURING JOINT RANGE AND MOTION
ROM for flexion is therefore considered to be the size of the angle through which the extended extremities moves from zero degrees to the point of maximum flexion.
Measured directionally in units of degrees.

DISLOCATION

CLASSIFICATION OF JOINTS

DIATHROSES
the articulating bone surfaces are covered with articular cartilage (protective layer of dense white connective tissue covering the articulating surfaces), an articular capsule (double-layered membrane that surrounds every synovial joint), and synovial fluid (clear, slightly yellow liquid that provides lubrication inside the articular capsule at synovial joint)
AMPHIATHROSES
cartilaginous joint attenuate applied forces & permit more motion of the adjoining bones than synarthrodial joint.
SYNATHROSES
these fibrous joints can attenuate force (absorb shock) but permit little or no movement of the articulating bones.

JOINTS ARCHITECTURE

DIATHROSES(FREELY MOVABLE)
Gliding (plane; arthrodial) Hinge (ginglymus) Pivot (screw; trochoid) Condyloid (ovoid; ellipsoidal) Saddle (sellar) Ball & socket (spherroidal)
AMPHIATHROSES(SLIGHTLY MOVABLE)
Synchondroses symphyses
SYNATHROSES(IMMOVABLE)
Sutures Syndesmoses
