The skeletal system protects and supports the body through its 206 bones and over 200 joints. It also produces blood cells and stores minerals. Muscles are the actuators of the musculoskeletal system and account for 36-45% of body weight. Tendons connect muscles to bones. Synovial joints contain synovial fluid that lubricates and protects bones. Common types include ball-and-socket, hinge, saddle, sliding, and pivot joints. Problems with bones and joints include fractures, osteoarthritis, and osteoporosis. Artificial joints and implants are made from biocompatible materials like cobalt-chrome, titanium, and stainless steel alloys.

Bones, Joints, and the Architecture of Movement: Exploring the Skeletal SystemNursing Mastery
Title: Bones, Joints, and the Architecture of Movement: Exploring the Skeletal System
Introduction:
Welcome to our engaging SlideShare presentation on the Skeletal System & Joints, where we embark on a fascinating exploration of the framework that supports our bodies and facilitates movement. Join us as we delve into the intricate world of bones, joints, and the dynamic interplay that shapes our mobility and stability.
The skeletal system serves as the foundation of our anatomy, providing structural support, protection for vital organs, and a framework for locomotion. Comprised of bones, cartilage, ligaments, and tendons, this complex system forms the structural scaffold upon which our bodies are built.
In this presentation, we'll take a closer look at the anatomy of bones, from their composition and classification to their roles in mineral storage and blood cell production. Through detailed illustrations and interactive diagrams, we'll explore the dynamic nature of bone remodeling and the factors that influence bone health and density.
But bones alone do not account for the versatility of human movement. Joints, the articulations where two or more bones meet, play a crucial role in facilitating motion and absorbing impact. From synovial joints like the knee and shoulder to fibrous and cartilaginous joints, we'll unravel the mechanics of joint structure and function.
Together, the skeletal system and joints form a complex network that enables us to walk, run, jump, and perform a myriad of daily activities. Whether you're a student studying anatomy, a fitness enthusiast seeking to optimize performance, or simply curious about the mechanics of the human body, our presentation offers valuable insights into the wonders of the skeletal system and joints.
Join us as we embark on a journey through the bony landmarks and articulations that define our physical form and discover the intricate architecture of movement hidden beneath our skin.
2. The Skeletal System Role of the skeletal system Protects Supports Movement Produces blood cells Stores minerals
3. The Skeletal System The human skeletal system normally has 206 bones has over 200 articulations
4.
5. The Muscular System Muscles – maintain posture, generate heat, provide driving force for movement Muscles are the actuators of the musculoskeletal system.
6. The Muscular System The human muscular system normally has approximately 640 skeletal muscles accounts for 36 to 45% of total body weight.
7. Muscles and Tendons Tendons connect muscles to bone Tendons are strong elastic bands, like very stiff rubber bands.
15. What type of levers are these? Draw diagrams showing the pivot (fulcrum), the load and the effort Seesaw, nut cracker, scissors, stapler, wrench pliers, crowbar, tweezers.
18. Synovial Joints Synovial joints contain synovial fluid which is secreted by the synovial membrane. This fluid helps lubricate and protect the bones.
19. Cartilage Cartilage is a tough and fibrous substance that is between bone ends in some joints. The cartilage allows the bones to move freely over each other, reducing friction and protecting the bone ends. Cartilage is thicker in the leg joints where the load is greater.

21. Types of Synovial Joints Give a brief description of the different types of synovial joints and identify their location ball and socket hinge saddle sliding pivot
25. Ligaments connect bone to bone. ligaments are composed of strands of collagen fibres. are slightly stretchy, but are arranged in crossing patterns which prevents the joint itself to become loose.
26. Bone A bone is generally made up of two types of tissue: spongy bone and compact bone.
27. Compact bone provides protection and support, and forms a hard, thin layer over the inner spongy bone. much denser than spongy bone
28. Spongy Bone very porous and contains the bone marrow. soft and spongy it distributes and dissipates the energy transferred to it by compact bone.
42. Polyethylene similar density to living tissue it is relatively elastic it has a low coefficient of friction will not deform under stress.
43. Artificial Hip components 1. titanium femoral component, 2. polyethylene cup 3. ceramic head 3. acrylic bone cement, and/or screws.
44. Treatment of finger arthritis. Joint replacement surgery is called joint arthroplasty. Silicone joints would be suitable substitutes for small joints in the fingers and toes because they can be made as strong and as flexible as natural joints. They are biocompatible, as they allow the flow of oxygen and do not react with living tissue.

46. When good hips go bad... within the first two years following implantation, 14 out of 165 patients of his who received the Durom hip replacement system had to undergo revision surgery to correct a failed device.
