ALt. in Musculoskeletal Fxn: trauma, disease, and infection Flashcards
what are the 2 types of soft tissues?
contractile and inert
ligament
a dense connective tissue with prallel-fibered collagenous tissues designed to connect bone to done
Strain
injuries ro muscles
Sprains
injuries to ligaments (bone to bone)
Rotator cuff injuries
injuries to tendons (muscle to bone)
When do injuries to ligaments occur?
when loading exceeds the physiologic range of motion
Fasciae
occurs when connective tissues of the body are arranged in sheaths that envelopes muscles
What are the results of the trauma to the fasciae?
edema and scarring
location between muscles or between muscle or tendon and bone, connective tissue forms a pocket lined with synovium that contains fluid
bursae
tendonitis
inflammation of the tendon within the sheath in which a tendon slide may also be traumatized
Causes of tendonitis
infection, direct injury, or i jury from repetitive motion
Compartment syndrome
due to trauma to soft tissue the unyielding structure of inert tissue
what are the 2 types of bone?
cortical and cancellous bone
cortical bone
forms the cortex of the bone that is designed to tolerate compression and shearing forces
cancellous bone
found in the interior bone that has a spongy or lattice-like appearance
fracture
a break in continuity of a bone, an epiphyseal plate or a cartilaginous joint surface
a fracture that occurs in a straight line at approx a 90 degree angle
transverse
a fracture that results from a rotational force and cause the bone to separate in an S around the bone
spiral
fracture in which the bone splits along its length
longitudinal
fracture that results from a rotational force at a 45 degree angle
oblique
fracture that consist of more than one fracture line and more than 2 bone fragments
comminuted
