Used for microscopic injuries in bone
•
Phase 1 (activation)
Stimulis - hormone, drug, physical stressor activates body to formosteoclasts.
•
Phase 2 (resorption)
Osteoclasts gradually reabsorb bone
•
Phase 3 (Formation)
Laying down of new bone by Osteoblasts lining walls of injuredsite.
○
Repair
Larger wounds
•
Hematoma formation
Blood clot over ends of bony tissue
•
Formation of procallus by osteoblasts
Sits up from bone tissue, forms seal over end of bone (byosteoblasts)
Happens within days of injury
Form bone matrix
•
Callus formation
Takes a few weeks to form.
Structural integrity
•
Replacement and contour modeling
Can take years (up to 4 yrs)
Bone broken down (lysed), then mineralized.
•
Structure and Function of Joints
•
Stabilize and move
○
Synarthrosis
•
Completely immovable, i.e. Skull.
○
Amphiarthrosis
•
Slightly movable, where sternum and ribs come together
○
Diarthrosis
•
Freely movable, knees, hips, elbows.
○
Fibrous Joints
•
Connected by fibrous CT, usually synarthrosis.
•
Depends on how far apart the two bones are.
•
Radius ulna, teeth to mandible.
○
Cartilaginous Joints
•
Connected by cartilage.
•
2 types
Symphysis type joints (pad or disc b/t bones, pubis, intervertebraldiscs)
Synchondrosis type joints (have hyaline cartilage, costal cartilageb/t ribs and sternum)
○
Synovial Joints
•
Diarthrosis joints, most movable and most complex.
•
Uniaxial
Move in one direction
