CHAPTER 3: THE MUSCULAR SYSTEM Three Types of Muscle * Muscle tissue is a collection of cells that shorten during contraction which create tension that results in movement * Tendons are touch bands of connective tissue that join muscle with bones Skeletal muscles * Muscles that are attached to bone (by tendons and other tissue) * Comprise 30 to 40% of human body weight * Humans have conscious control (conscious muscle) over these muscles (the brain can tell them what to do)

Cardiomyopathy also known as the “heart muscle disease” is a deterioration of the function of the myocardium. This sometimes leads to heart failure. People with this disease are often at risk of dangerous forms of irregular heartbeat and sudden cardiac death. The term cardiomyopathy generally apply’s to any disease affecting the heart. Usually it is used for severe myocardial disease leading to heart failure. Different cases of myocardial diseases can be categorized as extrinsic or intrinsic. The

Reyes November 08‚ 2011 Dr. Dunaway Neuronal signaling in muscle contraction is triggered when an action potential reaches the neuromuscular junction. At this junction‚ acetylcholine (ACh) is the main neurotransmitter. Packaged in vesicles‚ ACh fuses with the neuron’s membrane and is released into the synaptic cleft. ACh diffuses toward the motor end plate and bind to the neurotransmitter receptor on it. The muscle fiber is then triggered to produce an action potential of its own that

below: 1. A patient is admitted for electroconvulsive treatment (ECT). The physician orders the neuromuscular blocking agent metocurine iodide (metubine) to reduce trauma by relaxing skeletal muscles. Explain the process of muscle contraction and how a neuromuscular blocking agent‚ such as metubine‚ would interfere with muscle contraction. According to the Mayo Clinic website electroconvulsive treatment is the use of an electrical signal that sent through the brain to intentionally induce a brief seizure

Ice: Ice application helps reduce swelling‚ bleeding‚ and pain. Ice application should begin as soon as possible after sustaining a muscle pull. Ice applications can be done frequently‚ but should not be done for more than 15 minutes at a time. Anti-Inflammatory Medications: Anti-inflammatory medications can help
