In this video, we’re diving into a basic understanding of saddle joints, focusing on two key examples: the trapeziometacarpal joint and the sternoclavicular joint; that you will definitely need to know for the MBLEx.
Saddle joints are unique among the six types of diarthrotic joints, allowing movements like flexion/extension, adduction/abduction, and circumduction. Understanding how these joints function is essential for anyone preparing for the MBLEx.
In this video, I’ll explain what makes a saddle joint distinctive and break down the structures involved in these examples. You’ll learn how the trapezium and the first metacarpal of the thumb interact to create the saddle joint of the thumb and how the sternum and clavicle contribute to movements such as elevation/depression, protraction/retraction, and circumduction.
Looking for more resources? I’ve got you covered! On Etsy, you’ll find a detailed study guide and worksheet that cover all six types of diarthrotic joints you’ll need know to master for the MBLEx. Plus, on my Patreon page, I’ve shared 46 FREE MBLEx practice questions (and counting!) along with live lessons and additional study materials to deepen your understanding.
