movement of a body part toward midline of body Circumduction: Turning in a circular motion; combines abduction, adduction, extension & flexion Flexion: State of being bent Extension: State of being in a straight line Hyperextension: State of exaggerated extension Dorsiflexion: Backward bending of hand or foot Plantar flexion: Flexion of foot Rotation: Turning on an axis; turning of a body part on axis provided by its joint Internal Rotation: A body part turning on its axis toward midline of body External Rotation: A body part turning on its axis away from midline of body Pronation: Lying on abdomen; forearm turned so palm faces downward Supination: Lying on back; forearm turn so palm faces upward Inversion: Movement of sole of foot inward (occurs at ankle) Eversion: Movement of sole of foot outward (occurs at ankle) Opposition: Rotation of thumb around its long axi s (movement of thumb across palm to touch each fingertip of same hand) Patient Positioning Fowler’s position: seated in a semi-sitting position (45-60°) Protective Supine Position: lying horizontally with the face & torso facing up Protective Side-Lying/Lateral Position: patient lies on one side of body with top leg in front of bottom leg & hip & knee flexed Protective Sims’ Position: patient lies on their left side, left hip & lower extremity straight with right hip & knee bent Protective Prone Position: lies flat with chest down & back up Effect of Nervous System on Muscle Contraction • Neurons conduct impulses from one part of body to another • Afferent nervous system conveys information to CNS from sensory organs • Information is processed by CNS leading to a response • Efferent neurons convey response from CNS to skeletal muscles by way of somatic nervous system Postural Reflexes: automatic movements- maintain body position & equilibrium, essential for body alignment & balance • Postural tonus: sustained contraction of select skeletal muscles that keeps human body in an upright position against force of gravity, depends on functioning of several postural reflexes; o Labyrinthine sense o Proprioceptor/kinesthetic sense o Visual/optic sense o Extensor/stretch reflexes Factors Influencing Mobility • Developmental considerations • Physical health o Muscular, skeletal, or nervous system problems o Problems involving other body systems • Mental health • Lifestyle • Attitude & values • Fatigue & stress • External factors Types of Exercises Isotonic: muscle shortening & active movement Isometric: muscle contraction without shortening Isokinetic: muscle contraction with resistance Benefits of Exercise to Cardiovascular System • Increased efficiency of heart • Decreased heart rate & blood pressure • Increased blood flow to all body parts • Improved venous return • Increased circulating fibrinolysin (substance that breaks up small clots) Benefits of Exercise to Respiratory System • Improved alveolar ventilation • Decreased work of breathing • Improved diaphragmatic excursion Benefits of Exercise to Musculoskeletal System • Increased muscle efficiency (strength) & flexibility • Increased coordination • Reduced bone loss • Increased efficiency of nerve impulse transmission Effects of Immobility on Body • Cardiovascular system • Respiratory System • Musculoskeletal system • Metabolic processes • Gastrointestinal system • Urinary system • Skin • Psychosocial outlook Variables Leading to Back Injury in Health Care Workers • Uncoordinated lifts • Manual lifting & transferring of patients without assistive devices • Lifting when fatigued or after recent back

inflamed; leads to cracking Halitosis: bad breath Plaque: soft, sticky film built up on teeth Tartar: hard calcified deposit that forms on teeth Purpose of Back Massage • Acts as a general body conditioner • Relieves muscle tension & promotes relaxation • Provides opportunity for nurse to observe skin for signs of breakdown • Improves circulation • May decrease pain, distress, & anxiety •

Serves as musculoskeletal exercise • Stimulates rate & depth of respirations • Promotes comfort through muscle relaxation & skin stimulation • Provides person with sensory input • Helps improve self-image • Strengthens nurse-patient relationship Providing Bed Baths • Provide articles for bathing on overbed table/bedside stand • Provide privacy for patient • Remove top linens & replace with
