Write down the translatoric joint play movements. Explain normal grades of translatoric movement?

Image
Translatoric Joint Play Movements: The translatoric joint play movements used in the OMT Kaltenborn-Evjenth concept are Traction, Compression and gliding. Traction: Tra ction ( separation ) is a linear translatoric joint play movement at a right angle to and away from the treatment plan.  Compression: Compression ( approximation ) is a linear translatoric movement at a right angle to and toward the treatment plane.   Compression presses the joint surfaces together. It is usefu l to differentiate between articular and extra-articular lesions. Gliding: Translatoric gliding is a joint play movement parallel to the treatment plane.  Translatoric gliding is possible over a short distance in all joints because curved joint surfaces are not perfectly congurent.  Grade 1 traction is always performed simultaneously with a translatoric gliding movement. Normal Grades Of Translatoric Movement: Normal grades of translatoric movement gives Pain-relief mobilization, Relaxation mob...

What is Bone? Explain the Classification of bone.

Image
What is BONE? Bone is a rigid, highly vascular, dynamic, constantly changing, mineralized connective tissue. It gives characteristic form to the human body. It also gives support to human body. Classification Of Bones: Bones can be classified as following: Developmental Classification Structural Classification Regional Classification According to size and shape. Developmental Classification: This classification includes 3 types: Intramembranous:  In this type the embryonic mesenchyme directly differentiate into bony tissues. It usually occurs in embryo. The characteristic of this type of bone formation is its rapidity of formation, e.g., Bones of the vault of the skull Bones of the face Clavicle. Intracartilagenous:   In it, firstly cartilagenous model of bone is formed which later on transforms into bony tissues. For example, All long bones of the body except clavicle Short bone Irregular bones Membrano-cartilagenous:  At the junction of vault and base of skull the bone...

Write down the anatomy of Ulna. Also explain its features and muscle attachments?

  ULNA The ulna is the medial bone of the forearm. It is homologous with the fibula of the lower limb. It has an upper end, a shaft and a lower end. Features: Upper End: The upper end presents the olecranon and coracoid processes, and the trochlear and radial notches. The olecranon process projects upwards from the shaft. It has superior, anterior, posterior, medial and lateral surfaces. The anterior surface is articular, it forms the upper part of the trochlear notch. The posterior surface forms a triangular sub cutaneous area which is separated from the skin by a bursae. The medial surface is continuous inferiorly with the medial surface of the shaft. The lateral surface is smooth, continues as posterior surface of shaft. The superior surface in its posterior part shows a roughened area. 2. The Coracoid process projects forwards from the shaft just below the olecranon and has four surfaces. The superior surface forms the lower part of the trochlear notch. The anterior surface is ...
