KLASIFIKASI SENDI :
27
1. Fibrous Joint : kedua tulang ini dihubungkan oleh jaringan ikat fibrosa. Jumlah
pergerakan yang terjadi pada fibrous joint bergantung pada panjangnya serat yang
menghubungakan kedua tulang. Contoh :
a. Sutura : berupa pita kolagen tidak keras. Pada saat dewasa terjadi penulangan,
disebut synostosis; sutura pada cranium(kedua tulang cranium saling mengunci
dengan garis zig zag/ overlap)
2. Cartilaginous Joint : struktur sendi ini dihubungkan oleh kartilago hyaline atau
fibrocartilage.
28
epiphysial plate berubah menjadi tulang (fusi dengan diaphysis).Contoh : discus
epiphysialis, synchondrosis sphenooccipitalis, synchondrosis manubriosternalis
b. Secondary cartilaginous joints atau symphisis merupakan sendi yang kuat, sedikit
gerak, dan terhubung oleh jaringan fibrokartilago. Contoh : discus
intervertebralis jaringan fibrokartilago menghubungkan vertebra sehingga dapat
memeberikan kekuatan dan sebagai shock absorption ; symphisis pubis
3. Synovial Joint : dihubungkan oleh capsul sendi (terdiri dari lamina fibrosa atau
membran yang dibatasi oleh serous synovial membrane). Capsul sendi ini
menyelubungi cavitas articularis. Cavitas articularis dari synovial joint merupakan
ruang potensial yang mengandung sedikit cairan synovial yang disekresikan oleh
membrane synovial yang berfungsi sebagai lubricant. Didalam capsul, terdapat
cartilago sendi membungkus permukaan sendi/ facies articularis pada tulang, sisanya
akan cavitas articularis akan dilapisi oleh membrane synovial.
29
Synovial joints merupakan jenis sendi yang paling umum. Dengan struktur
seperti yang telah dijelaskandiatas memungkinkan adanya gerakan bebas antar tulang
yang dihubungkan oleh sendi jenis ini. Terdapat 6 tipe synovial joints yang
diklasifikasikan berdasarkan bentuk permukaan sendi atau tipe gerakan yang
memungkinkan terjadi,berikut klasifikasinya :

FISIOLOGI MUSKULOSKELETAL
1. Fisiologi skeletal
Tulang adalah suatu jaringan dinamis yang tersusun oleh 3 jenis sel yaitu
osteoblas, osteosit, dan osteoklas, yang berperan pada proses remodelling tulang.
Osteoblas berfungsi membangun tulang dengan membentuk kolagen tipe 1
dan proteoglikan sebagai matrix tulang melalui proses osifikasi. Selain itu osteoblas
mensekresi fosfatase alkali, yang sebagiannya akan memasuki aliran darah (oleh
karena itu kadar fosfatase alkali yang tinggi merupakan indikator baik dalam
penyembuhan fraktur).
Osteosit adalah sel-sel tulang dewasa sebagai lintasan pertukaran kimiawi
tulang yang padat. Sedangkan osteoklas berfungsi untuk mengasorbsi mineral dan
matriks tulang agar pecah dan larut sehingga kalsium dan fosfat terlepas kedalam
darah. Sel ini mengikis tulang.
Pertumbuhan embriologi tulang
Perkembangan tulang menjadi 2 tahap, tahap pertama terjadi pada minggu
kelima perkembangan embrio, sedangkan tahap kedua terjadi setelah minggu ketujuh.
Lalu tulang akan terbentuk melalui 2 cara yaitu secara langsung dan tidak langsung
atau osifikasi desmal atau osifikasi endokondral.
2. Fisiologi otot
Otot merupakan organ tubuh yang mempunyai kemampuan mengubah energi
kimia menjadi energi mekanik/gerak sehingga dapat berkontraksi untuk
menggerakkan rangka.
Satu gelendong otot tersusun oleh fasicle yang merupakan berkas otot yang
terdiri atas beberapa sel otot atau muscle fiber. Muscle fiber tersusun oleh miofibril,
sedangkan miofibril tersusun oleh miofilamen yaitu aktin dan miosin. Miofibril
dibangun oleh 3 jenis protein yaitu protein kontraktil (miosin dan aktin), protein
regulator yang merupakan bagian dari filamen tipis/aktin (tropomiosin dan troponin),
dan protein struktural. Dapat dilihat lebih jelas pada gambar dibawah ini.
32
Kontraksi dan relaksasi otot skelet.
Kontraksi dan relaksasi otot terjadi karena adanya mekanisme sliding filament,
seperti berikut :
Kepala miosin melekat dan berjalan sepanjang filamen tipis di kedua ujung
sarkomer, menarik filamen tipis ke arah M line
Filamen tipis masuk dan bertemu di pusat sarkomer
Dorongan masuk filamen tipis sampai saling tumpang tindih
Z disc saling mendekat, sarkomer memendek
Panjang fiamen tebal dan tipis secara individu tidak berubah
Pemendekan sarkomer menyebabkan pemendekan seluruh serabut otot,
selanjutnya ototnya memendek kontraksi
33
Untuk terjadinya mekanisme sliding filamen tersebut terjadi beberapa proses
secara singkatnya akan dijelaskan pada skema dibawah ini :

CLINICAL APPLICATION
3. Fracture
Types of Fractures
Bones are rigid, but they do bend or "give" somewhat when an outside
force is applied. However, if the force is too great, the bones will break, just as a
plastic ruler breaks when it is bent too far.
The severity of a fracture usually depends on the force that caused the
break. If the bone's breaking point has been exceeded only slightly, then the bone
may crack rather than break all the way through. If the force is extreme, such as
in an automobile crash or a gunshot, the bone may shatter.
If the bone breaks in such a way that bone fragments stick out through the
skin, or a wound penetrates down to the broken bone, the fracture is called an
"open" fracture. This type of fracture is particularly serious because once the skin
is broken, infection in both the wound and the bone can occur.
Stable fracture. The broken ends of the bone line up and are barely
out of place.
Open, compound fracture. The skin may be pierced by the bone or by
a blow that breaks the skin at the time of the fracture. The bone may or
may not be visible in the wound.
Transverse fracture. This type of fracture has a horizontal fracture
line.
35
Oblique fracture. This type of fracture has an angled pattern.
Cause
Symptoms
Many fractures are very painful and may prevent you from moving the
injured area. Other common symptoms include:
36
Causes
A sprain is usually caused by trauma to a joint (the space between bones).
Twisting or forces overstretch the ligaments (such as hyperextension or
hyperflexion) and can cause tears in the ligament tissue, which can be graded
from mild to severe depending on the amount of damage. Sprains can happen
when people twist an ankle or knee or fall on an elbow or shoulder. A strain is
usually the result of overstretching or overuse of muscles and tendons. An
acute strain can be the result of sudden twisting or trauma to the muscles or
tendons. Chronic strains are the consequence of overuse of muscles and
tendons, such as with athletes who train constantly and do not rest adequately.
pain,
swelling,
bruising,
instability of the joint,
decreased range of motion.
pain,
inflammation,
muscle spasm,
muscle cramping,
muscle weakness,
bruising may occur but may be delayed for several days.
37
5. Dislocation
A joint dislocation, or luxation, occurs when there is an abnormal separation
in the joint, where two or more bones meet. A partial dislocation is referred to as
a subluxation. Dislocations are often caused by sudden trauma on the joint like an
impact or fall. A joint dislocation can cause damage to the surrounding ligaments,
tendons, muscles, and nerves. Dislocations can occur in any joint major
(shoulder, knees, etc.) or minor (toes, fingers, etc.). The most common joint
dislocation is a shoulder dislocation.
Treatment for joint dislocation is usually by closed reduction, that is, skilled
manipulation to return the bones to their normal position. Reduction should be
done only by trained people, because it can cause injury.
Causes
Joint dislocations are caused by trauma to the joint or when an individual falls
on a specific joint. Great and sudden force applied, by either a blow or fall, to the
joint can cause the bones in the joint to be displaced or dislocated from normal
position. With each dislocation, the ligaments keeping the bones fixed in the
correct position can be damaged or loosened, making it easier for the joint to be
dislocated in the future.
38
Some individuals are prone to dislocations due to congenital conditions, such
as hypermobility syndrome and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Hypermobility
syndrome is genetically inherited disorder that is thought to affect the encoding of
the connective tissue protein’s collagen in the ligament of joints. The loosened or
stretched ligaments in the joint provide little stability and allow for the joint to be
easily dislocated.
Symptoms
Intense Pain
Joint instability
Deformity of the joint area
Reduced muscle strength
Bruising or redness of joint area
Difficulty moving joint
Stiffness
6. Osteomyelitis
Osteomyelitis is inflammation of the bone caused by an infecting organism.
Although bone is normally resistant to bacterial colonization, events such as
trauma, surgery, the presence of foreign bodies, or the placement of prostheses
may disrupt bony integrity and lead to the onset of bone infection. Osteomyelitis
can also result from hematogenous spread after bacteremia. When prosthetic
joints are associated with infection, microorganisms typically grow in biofilm,
which protects bacteria from antimicrobial treatment and the host immune
response.
Early and specific treatment is important in osteomyelitis, and identification of
the causative microorganisms is essential for antibiotic therapy.The major cause
of bone infections is Staphylococcus aureus. Infections with an open fracture or
associated with joint prostheses and trauma often must be treated with a
combination of antimicrobial agents and surgery. When biofilm microorganisms
are involved, as in joint prostheses, a combination of rifampin with other
antibiotics might be necessary for treatment.
39
Anatomy
The bony skeleton is divided into two parts: the axial skeleton and the
appendicular skeleton. The axial skeleton is the central core unit, consisting of the
skull, vertebrae, ribs, and sternum; the appendicular skeleton comprises the bones
of the extremities. The human skeleton consists of 213 bones, of which 126 are
part of the appendicular skeleton, 74 are part of the axial skeleton, and six are part
of the auditory ossicles.
Hematogenous osteomyelitis most commonly involves the vertebrae, but
infection may also occur in the metaphysis of the long bones, pelvis, and clavicle.
Vertebral osteomyelitis involves two adjacent vertebrae with the corresponding
intervertebral disk. (See the image below.) The lumbar spine is most commonly
affected, followed by the thoracic and cervical regions.
Posttraumatic osteomyelitis begins outside the bony cortex and works its way in
toward the medullary canal, typically found in the tibia. Contiguous-focus
osteomyelitis often occurs in the bones of the feet in patients with diabetes mellitus
and vascular compromise.
40
7. Tendon rupture
A tendon is the fibrous tissue that attaches muscle to bone in the human body.
The forces applied to a tendon may be more than 5 times your body weight. In
some rare instances, tendons can snap or rupture. Conditions that make a rupture
more likely include the injection of steroids into a tendon, certain diseases (such
as gout or hyperparathyroidism), and having type O blood.
Although fairly uncommon, a tendon rupture can be a serious problem and
may result in excruciating pain and permanent disability if untreated. Each type
of tendon rupture has its own signs and symptoms and can be treated either
surgically or medically depending on the severity of the rupture and the
confidence of the surgeon.
The 4 most common areas of tendon rupture include:
Quadriceps
Often called the quads, this group of muscles is used to extend the leg
at the kneeand aids in walking, running, and jumping.
Achilles
This tendon is located on the back portion of the foot just above the
heel. It is the site where the calf muscle attaches to the heel of the foot
(the calcaneus bone).
This tendon is vital for pushing off with the foot. The Achilles helps
you stand on your tiptoes and push off when starting a foot race.
Rotator cuff
Your rotator cuff is located in the shoulder and is actually composed of
4 muscles that function together to raise your arm out to the side, to
help you rotate the arm, and to keep your shoulder from popping out of
its socket.
The rotator cuff tendon is one of the most common areas in the body
affected by tendon injury. Some studies of people after death have
shown that 8% to 20% have rotator cuff tears.
41
Biceps
The biceps muscle of the arm functions as a flexor of the elbow. This
muscle brings the hand toward the shoulder by bending at the elbow.
Ruptures of the biceps are classified as proximal (close) or distal (far).
Distal ruptures are extremely rare. The proximal rupture occurs where
the biceps attaches at the top of your shoulder.
Symptomps
Severe pain
Marked weakness
Inability to use the affected arm or leg
Rotator cuff rupture: You will be unable to bring your arm out to the
side.
