The Muscular System

Lecture Outline


INTRODUCTION

• The voluntarily controlled muscles of the body make up the muscular system.

• The muscular system and muscle tissue contribute to homeostasis by producing movement, stabilizing body position, regulating organ volume, moving substances within the body, and producing heat.

• This chapter discusses how skeletal muscles produce movement and describes the principal skeletal muscles.


Chapter 11The Muscular System

• Skeletal muscle major groupings• How movements occur at specific joints• Learn the origin, insertion, function and innervation of all major

muscles• Important to allied health care and physical rehabilitation

students


HOW SKELETAL MUSCLES PRODUCE MOVEMENT


Muscle Attachment

Sites:Origin and Insertion

• Skeletal muscles shorten & pull on the bones they are attached to• Origin is the bone that does not move when muscle shortens

(normally proximal)• Insertion is the movable bone (some 2 joint muscles)• Fleshy portion of the muscle in between attachment sites = belly


Tenosynovitis

• Inflammation of tendon and associated connective tissues at certain joints– wrist, elbows and shoulder commonly affected

• Pain associated with movement• Causes

– trauma, strain or excessive exercise


Lever Systems and Leverage

• A lever is a rigid structure that moves around a fixed point, the fulcrum (F)

• The lever is acted on by two different forces: (Figure 11.1b).– resistance (load) (L), which opposes movement– effort (E) which causes movement Bones serve as levers

and joints serve as fulcrums.• Leverage, the mechanical advantage gained by a lever, is

largely responsible for a muscle’s strength and range of motion (ROM), i.e., the maximum ability to move the bones of a joint through an arc.


Levers are categorized into three types –

• First class levers (EFL) e.g. a seesaw – the head on the vertebral column (Figure 11.2a)

• Second-class (FLE) eg. a wheelbarrow(Figure 11.2b)• Third-class (FEL) (Figure 11.1b) e.g. forceps - the elbow

joint (Figure 11.2c).


• Muscle acts on rigid rod (bone)that moves around a fixed point called a fulcrum

• Resistance is weight of bodypart & perhaps an object

• Effort or load is work doneby muscle contraction

• Mechanical advantage

– the muscle whose attachment is farther from the joint will produce the most force

– the muscle attaching closer to the joint has the greater range of motion and the faster the speed it can produce

Lever Systems and Leverage


First - Class Lever

• Can produce mechanical advantage or not depending on location of effort & resistance– if effort is further from fulcrum

than resistance, then a strong resistance can be moved

• Head resting on vertebral column– weight of face is the resistance– joint between skull & atlas is

fulcrum– posterior neck muscles provide

effort


Second - Class Lever

• Similar to a wheelbarrow• Always produce mechanical advantage

– resistance is always closer to fulcrum than the effort

• Sacrifice of speed for force• Raising up on your toes

– resistance is body weight– fulcrum is ball of foot– effort is contraction of calf muscles

which pull heel up off of floor


Third - Class Lever

• Most common levers in the body• Always produce a mechanical

disadvantage– effort is always closer to fulcrum than

resistance• Favors speed and range of motion over

force• Flexor muscles at the elbow

– resistance is weight in hand– fulcrum is elbow joint– effort is contraction of biceps brachii

muscle


Fascicle Arrangements

• A contracting muscle shortens to about 70% of its length• Fascicular arrangement represents a compromise between force of

contraction (power) and range of motion– muscles with longer fibers have a greater range of motion– a short fiber can contract as forcefully as a long one.


Coordination Within Muscle Groups

• Most movement is the result of several muscle working at the same time

• Most muscles are arranged in opposing pairs at joints– prime mover or agonist contracts to cause the desired

action– antagonist stretches and yields to prime mover– synergists contract to stabilize nearby joints– fixators stabilize the origin of the prime mover

• scapula held steady so deltoid can raise arm


HOW SKELETAL MUSCLES ARE NAMED

• The names of most of the nearly 700 skeletal muscles are based on several types of characteristics.

• These characteristics may be reflected in the name of the muscle.

• The most important characteristics include the direction in which the muscle fibers run, the size, shape, action, numbers of origins, and location of the muscle, and the sites of origin and insertion of the muscle

• Examples from Table 11.2– triceps brachii -- 3 sites of origin– quadratus femoris -- square shape– serratus anterior -- saw-toothed edge


PRINCIPLE SKELETAL MUSCLES

• Exhibits 11.1 through 11.20 list the principle skeletal muscles in various regions of the body.

• Figure 11.3 shows general anterior and posterior views of the muscular system.

• The exhibits contain objectives, an overview which provides a general orientation to the muscles, muscle names, origins, insertions, and actions, “relating muscles to movements,” innervation, and Figures (11.4-11.23) that show the muscles under consideration.


Muscles of Facial Expression

• Arise from skull & insert onto skin

• Encircle eyes, nose & mouth

• Express emotions• Facial Nerve (VII)

• Bell’s palsy = facial paralysis due


Muscles of Facial Expression

• Orbicularis oculi closes the eye

• Levator palpebrae superioris opens the eye

• Orbicularis oris puckers the mouth

• Buccinator forms the muscular portion of the cheek & assists in whistling, blowing, sucking & chewing


Extrinsic Muscles of the Eyeballs

• Extrinsic muscles insert onto white of eye

• Fastest contracting & most precisely controlled

• Cranial nerves 3, 4 & 6 innervate the six muscles– 4 Rectus muscles & 2

obliques• Intrinsic muscles are

found within the eyeball• Levator palpebrae

superioris raises eyelid


Muscles that Move the Mandible

• Masseter, temporalis & pterygoids

• Arise from skull & insert on mandible

• Cranial nerve V (trigeminal nerve)

• Protracts, elevates or retracts mandible

– Temporalis & Masseter elevate the mandible (biting)

– temporalis retracts


Jaw Muscles -- Deep Dissection

• Lateral pterygoid protracts mandible– sphenoid bone to condyle of mandible

• Medial pterygoid elevates & protracts mandible– sphenoid bone to angle of mandible

• Together move jaw side to side to grind food.


Muscles that Move the Tongue

• 4 extrinsic mm ariseelsewhere, but insertinto tongue– Genioglossus

• from inside tip of mandible– Styloglossus

• from styloid process– Palatoglossus

• from hard palate– Hyoglossus

• from hyoid bone• Together move tongue in various directions• Intubation is necessary during anesthesia since Genioglossus relaxes

& tongue falls posteriorly blocking airway


Muscles of the Floor of the Oral Cavity

• Suprahyoid muscles lie superior to hyoid bone.– Digastric m. extends from mandible to mastoid process

• used to open the mouth– Mylohyoid m. extends from hyoid to mandible

• supports floor of mouth & elevates hyoid bone during swallowing– Stylohyoid & Geniohyoid elevate the hyoid during swallowing


Muscles that Move the Head

• Sternocleidomastoid muscle– arises from sternum & clavicle & inserts onto mastoid process of

skull– innervated by cranial nerve XI (spinal accessory)– contraction of both flexes the cervical vertebrae & extends head – contraction of one, laterally flexes the neck and rotates face in

opposite direction


Muscles of Abdominal Wall

• Notice 4 layers of muscle in the abdominal wall


Muscles of Abdominal Wall

• 4 pairs of sheetlike muscles– rectus abdominis = vertically oriented– external & internal obliques and transverses abdominis

• wrap around body to form anterior body wall• form rectus sheath and linea alba

• Inguinal ligament from anterior superior iliac spine to upper surface of body of pubis

• Inguinal canal = passageway from pelvis through body wall musculature opening seen as superficial inguinal ring

• Inguinal hernia = rupture or separation of abdominal wall allowing protrusion of part of the small intestine (more common in males)


Transverse Section of Body Wall

• Rectus sheath formed from connective tissue aponeuroses of other abdominal muscles as they insert in the midline connective tissue called the linea alba


Muscles Used in Breathing• Breathing requires a change in

size of the thorax • During inspiration, thoracic

cavity increases in size– external intercostal lift the

ribs – diaphragm contracts &

dome is flattened • During expiration, thoracic

cavity decreases in size– internal intercostal mm used

in forced expiration• Diaphragm is innervated by

phrenic nerve (C3-C5) but intercostals innervated by thoracic spinal nerves (T2-T12)

Quadratus lumborum fills in space between 12th rib & iliac crest to create posterior body wall


Female Pelvic Floor & Perineum

• Both the pelvic diaphragm ( coccygeus & levator ani) and the muscles of the perineum fill in the gap between the hip bones – supports pelvic viscera & resists increased abdominal pressure during

defecation, urination, coughing, vomiting, etc– pierced by anal canal, vagina & urethra in females– levator ani may be damaged during episiotomy during childbirth

(urinary incontinence during coughing)


Muscles of Male Perineum

• Perineum contains more superficial layer of muscle– urogenital triangle contains external genitals

• muscle arrangement forms urogenital diaphragm assists in urination (external urethral sphincter) and ejaculation (ischiocavernosus, bulbospongiosus)

– anal triangle contains anus• external anal sphincter

Muscles Crossing the Hip Joint

• Iliopsoas flexes hip joint– arises lumbar vertebrae & ilium– inserts on lesser trochanter

• Quadriceps femoris has 4 heads– Rectus femoris crosses hip– 3 heads arise from femur– all act to extend the knee

• Adductor muscles – bring legs together– cross hip joint medially– see next picture

• Pulled groin muscle– result of quick sprint activity– stretching or tearing of

iliopsoas or adductor muscle

– cross ankle joint to insert into foot

• tibialis posterior• flexor digitorum longus• flexor hallucis longus

– flexing ankle joint & toes

ACL Surgery


ACL Surgery

• The tendons are arranged into three or four strips, which increases the strength of the graft. The surgeon stiches the strips together to hold them in place.


ACL Surgery


• Next, the surgeon prepares the knee to place the graft. The remnants of the original ligament are removed. The intercondylar notch (mentioned earlier) is enlarged so that nothing will rub on the graft. This part of the surgery is referred to as a notchplasty.

ACL Surgery

• Once this is done, holes are drilled in the tibia and the femur to place the graft. These holes are placed so that the graft will run between the tibia and femur in the same direction as the original ACL.


ACL Surgery

• The graft is then pulled into position through the drill holes.• Screws or staples are used to hold the graft inside the drill

holes.


ACL Surgery

• To keep fluid from building up in your knee, the surgeon may place a tube in your knee joint. The portals and skin incisions are then stitched together, completing the surgery.



Muscles of the Leg and Foot

• Anterior compartment of leg– extensors of ankle & toes

• tibialis anterior• extensor digitorum longus• extensor hallucis longus

– tendons pass under retinaculum• Shinsplits syndrome

– pain or soreness on anterior tibia– running on hard surfaces

• Lateral compartment of leg– peroneus mm plantarflex the foot– tendons pass posteriorly to axis

of ankle joint and into plantar foot


Muscles of the Plantar Foot

• Intrinsic muscles– arise & insert in foot

• 4 layers of muscles– get shorter as go into deeper

layers• Flex, adduct & abduct toes• Digiti minimi muscles move little

toe• Hallucis muscles move big toe• Plantar fasciitis (painful heel

syndrome) chronic irritation of plantar aponeurosis at calcaneus– improper shoes & weight

gain


Compartment Syndrome

• Skeletal muscles in the limbs are organized in units called compartments.

• In compartment syndrome, some external or internal pressure constricts the structures within a compartment, resulting in damaged blood vessels and subsequent reduction of the blood supply to the structures within the compartment.

• Without intervention, nerves suffer damage, and muscle develop scar tissue that results in permanent shortening of the muscles, a condition called contracture.


IM injection

• Intramuscular injection penetrates the skin, subcutaneous tissue and enters the muscle.

• They are given when rapid absorption is necessary, for large doses, or when a drug is irritating to subcutaneous tissue.

• Common sites of injection are the gluteus medius, vastul lateralis, and deltoid.

• Intramuscular injections are faster than oral medications, but slower than IV.
