1. Explain the basic process of movement for the musculoskeletal system.
When a football is kicked using the right foot, the psoas major, abdominals, and erector spinae stabilize the player’s trunk. The psoas, sartorius (oblique muscle situated at the inner thigh and linked to sitting cross-legged), iliacus, rectus femoris, and adductor group control bending or flexion of the right hip. The gluteus – the human body’s largest muscle – guides the left hip’s extension. The strong quadriceps is responsible for extension of the right and left knees, whereas the plantarflexors are responsible for right ankle flexing. The biceps brachii, pectoralis major and anterior deltoid move the football player’s left shoulder towards the body’s midline. Follow-through involves rotation and extension of the player’s right hip by the hamstrings, piriformis and gluteus, whilst the right knee is flexed by the hamstring group (Dale).
Sense organs in the muscles, joints, and tendons inform the CNS (central nervous system) of their motions, allowing the body to act accordingly and control the muscular involvement and joint angles when kicking the ball, thereby addressing it appropriately. Horizontal and front planes facilitate hip rotation. Normally, the knee flexes and extends by 140 degrees. The player’s arms, which are...

Musculoskeletal Case Study What other questions should the nurse ask? Was the birth weight below normal Questions about past medical history including significant past diseases/illnesses, surgery, including complications, trauma. Is she Hypermobile? Does she have Sleep disturbance (Connel, Bennett, & Eccleston, 2001)? The social deprivation factor should be explored Has the child undergone bereavements. What techniques are helpful to incorporate in assessing a patient in this age group? Establishing a rapport with both parents and the child is important
Ergonomic risk factors related to dental office design, equipment and tools are well-described. As dissimilar kinds of dental work, ideal working locations, and dissimilar user groups influence design and precise equipment, postural and positioning variables may reduce the risks, and designs need to consider neuromuscular factors, postural factors and the possibilities of relaxation. Demands of dental tasks are alike for male and female dentists. Yet, many equipment designs helpful
Skeletal and Muscular Systems: The human body is made of several parts and systems that perform various functions to sustain an individual's life. The skeletal and muscular systems are examples of important systems in the body with various functions. The skeletal system can be described as the body framework on which the human body is built (Turley, 2011). This system is made of 206 bones in addition to ligaments and cartilage
Physiology Body Systems Involved in Eating a Snack The first thing I do when eating a snack is to prepare it. In this case, I reach into the cabinet above me and grab a bag of potato chips. I read the label and make sure they are plain chips, because I do not like flavored chips. When I am satisfied they are the type of chip I like, I break open the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Skeletal and Muscular SystemsIntroductionToday, human health is being threatened on multiple fronts and it is not surprising that there is growing interest in developing a better understanding about the human body�s various systems and the respective roles they play in maintaining good health. Some people may intuitively recognize the importance of the skeletal and muscular systems to human health, but far too few understand the
Title: Safe Patient Handling/Moving 1. Problem/Challenge/Need Description Nonfatal occupational injury and illness rates in healthcare institutions tend to be relatively high. Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) continue to be a major injury source for healthcare workers in the realm of patient handling. As a matter of fact, some of those most affected include, but they are not limited to, nursing aides, attendants, as well as orderlies. To bring this concern into perspective, it is
