To break down this concept of hip movement, hip abduction is to propulsion as hip adduction is to flexion and recovery. This analogy leads to the, three phases in skating strides: single-support propulsion, double-support propulsion and single-support glide/recovery.2 Propulsion begins while one skate has contact with the ice and the other is approximately halfway through the recovery stage. The recovery stage is the period of time immediately after the skate pushes off before it is brought forward
shows us that hinge joints allow larger ranges of movement whereas pivot joints only allow small movements like turning your head. Both hinge joints and ball and socket joints allow flexion and extension although ball and socket joints also allow adduction, abduction, rotation and circumduction. Hinge joints are uni-axial but ball and socket joints are multi-axial. Ball and socket joints are spheres in concaved balls but hinge joints are cylinders in
Musculoskeletal Disorders are disorders that affect the human body’s movement and/or musculoskeletal system (such as muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, discs, blood vessels, etc.). The musculoskeletal system has a make up of bones in the skeleton as well as muscles, tendons and joints but also other connective tissue that sustain and join tissues and organs together. The primary functions of the musculoskeletal system are to support the body, allow motion, and protect vital organs. Bones There
frontal plane. Thus, the movement in this exercise occurs in transverse plane. 3. Pec-Deck Pectoral Fly: This exercise works pectoralis major muscle. This exercise involves pulling the handles across the chest towards each other i.e. horizontal adduction of glenohumeral joint. Hence, this exercise is an example for movement in transverse plane.

Pivot Joint This type of joint is also known as a rotary joint and allows only one type of movement, rotational movement which occurs when bone rotates on or around another bone, an example of this type of joint includes the joint of the first and second vertebrae of the neck that allows the head to move back and forth, the joint in the wrist which allows the palm to be turned facing upwards and facing downwards, this type of joint is incredibly important because it allows the bones to move freely
VOICE EVALUATION HISTORY OF VOICE PROBLEM: The patient, a 13 year-old female, was referred to speech-language pathology for a voice evaluation by Dr. Smith. She was diagnosed with Vocal Cord Dysfunction (VCD) and laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) approximately 1 month ago by Dr. Smith, Otolaryngologist and Dr. Jones, Pulmonologist. Today the patient stated that she was diagnosed with asthma 5 years ago, and had been using inhalers since that time. Two months ago the patient moved to West Lafayette
In the frontal plane, the movement shows the depression of scapula. The joint involved in this part of the pirouette is the scapulothoracic joint. This motion can be analyzed in the frontal plane or the sagittal due to the movements of the shoulders with the trunk (Hall, 2011). In the transverse plane it is the external rotation of the hip that helps form a pirouette. The muscles used to perform the rotation are the gluteus minimus, piriformis, superior gemellus, inferior gemellus, obturator internus
had received a trial of repeated manipulation and casting before the tenotomy procedure but it failed, this was attributed to the older age of patients at the start of manipulation. Some outhers recommended that, if a significant forefoot adduction is present in a child up to 6 years of
tearing of the ligament and abnormal laxity of the ankle. A grade 3 sprain is characterized by complete tear of the ligament if it can be pushed or pulled in certain movements there is gross instability. The movements of the ankle are abduction, adduction, plantar flexion, dorsiflexion, and inversion, eversion. The ligaments of the ankle hold the ankle bones and joint into position. These ligaments protect the ankle joint from abnormal movements such as twisting, turning, and rolling of the foot.
Inspection o Posture - Note the resting posture. Look for abnormal flexion, unusual rotation or clawing of the hand. Always compare with the other side for symmetry.

In order to assess the functional capacity of upper extremity and performance, the following tests can be done o Give an object and see how he receives it
The hip joint is the articulation between the pelvis and the femur, characterized by the joint surface opposition of the acetabulum and the head of femur creating a synovial ball and socket joint. It is one of the largest and most stable joints in the body. Figure ( ): Anatomy of the hip, adapted from (Connecticut, 2006) The stability of the hip joints is achieved by the depth and congruence of the articular surfaces, further deepened and stabilized by the acetabular labrum. The fibrocartilagenous
How the Arm and the Leg are Adapted for Their Special Function Both the arm and the leg are adapted in a variety of ways to accommodate their special functions. The primary function of the lower limb is to support the weight of the body and to provide a stable foundation in standing, walking and running. Thus, in general it can be seen that in the lower limb, adaptation to stability takes precedence over adaptation to mobility. The upper limb is the organ of manual activity, and as such
Baseball is considered America’s past time. Legends like Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Jackie Robinson, and many more have come and gone. Throughout baseball’s history certain players have excelled more than others, and like any sport they were successful by exploiting their strengths. It isn’t the rules, uniforms, stadiums, and fan base that make baseball a beautiful sport; it’s the players. Anyone competing, whether it is at a professional level or not, has their own unique mechanics that allows them
The patient presented with a shoulder disorder, a common orthopedic condition. To diagnose and treat the patient, the pathoanatomic diagnosis and the treatment based classification scheme called as staged approach for rehabilitation classification (STAR- Shoulder) was used as given by McClure and Michener 1. This classification is a staged classification and has three different levels: Screening, Pathoanatomic diagnosis, and A rehabilitation classification. Level 1: Screening On History- The patient

Furthermore, peer pressure is one of the main reason for attending college, college can become expensive for those with low income background and college is not the best option for some students. The common next step to an academic adduction after graduating from high school is to attend to college. At least that is what anybody would expect from a highschool graduate otherwise any other choice would be seen as a waste of time. In some cases, students can feel obligated for the reason
Chapter One: Introduction Over the past fifteen to twenty years women's fastpitch softball popularity has continued to grow and spread internationally. By the mid-1990s it was played in more than 85 countries under the eye of the International Softball Federation (ISF). It has become increasingly popular among women at the youth and collegiate levels. More than 630 National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) member institutions sponsor women's softball programs, and national championships for
Functions Of The Skeleton The human skeleton has 6 main functions that provide the body with good health. They are as follows: Support - our skeleton provides shape and support to our body which gives our body its shape, without this function our body would simply collapse. Movement - it aids our body to move by giving a framework to the attached muscles which then allows different movements at different joints. Movement is therefore powered by the skeletal muscles. Protection - the

possible hundreds, approximately twenty muscles work together to give the joint it stability and motion. Of the twenty, five major groups of muscles are responsible for dorsiflexion, plantar flexion, supination, pronation, eversion, inversion, adduction, and abduction. From the dorsal view, the following muscles are responsible for mostly dorsiflexion movement: The Extensor Digitorum Longus run from the lateral condyle to the distal of the second to fifth digit. The Extensor Hallicus Longus run
beginning with 1) our muscle being excitable or irritable. 2) Our muscles are contractible. 3) Our muscles are extensible. 4) Our muscles have elasticity. 5) Last, our muscle system is adaptable. Third, there are five types of muscle movements. 1) Adduction, movement towards the body. 2) Abduction, movement away from the body. 3) Flexion, “movement in the anterior-posterior plane that reduces the angle between the articulating elements.” (Martini, F 230). 4) Extension, “occurs in the same plane as flexion
