Anatomy and Function of the Skeletal and Muscular Systems with Cranial Nerve Assessment | Nursing and Anatomy Study Guide

This Anatomy and Function of the Skeletal and Muscular Systems Study Guide provides a complete overview of musculoskeletal anatomy, joint function, cranial nerve assessment, and neurological testing. It covers types of joints (fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial) and examples such as ball-and-socket, hinge, pivot, and saddle joints. The guide explains muscle functions, movements (abduction, adduction, flexion, extension), and risk factors for osteoporosis, including prevention and treatment measures. It also details cranial nerves I–XII, their functions, and assessment methods (e.g., sensory, motor, and reflex tests), along with Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) components and scoring. Ideal for nursing, anatomy, and health science students preparing for exams or practical assessments.
