athletic injurys test Flashcards
what are the three types of joints and the movements of each
fibrous (synarthroidal) no range of movement sutures in skull bones and teeth
cartilaginous (amphiarthroidal) slightly moveable sacroiliac symphysis pubis intervertebral joints
synovial (diarthroidal) freely moveable (many types)
what are the six types of synovial joints and examples for each
ball and socket ex shoulder and hip joints
gliding ex intercarpal and intertarsal joints
what are the six types of synovial joints and examples for each
ball and socket ex shoulder and hip joints
gliding ex intercarpal and intertarsal joints
hinge ex knee elbow joints of phalanges
pivot ex atlantoaxial joint proximal radio ulnar joint
saddle ex carpometacarpal (thumb joint)
ellipsoid ex radio carpal joint (wrist)
define tendons
attach muscle to bone made of protein flexible bc of collagen
define ligaments
attach bone to bone less flexible joint stabalizers
bursae
small fluid filled sacks bw tendons ligaments and bones to reduce friction
joint capsule
a fibrous structure that consists of a synoibal memebrane an a fibrous capsule
articulating cartilage
located at the end of bones to allow smoooth mobement bw bones adn act as a shock absorbers
joint cavity
bw two articulating bones slowly release synovial fluid which lubricates the joint reducing friction and providing nutrients
synovial fluid
lubricates joints to release friction
hyaline cartilege
found at the end of bones (nose larynx)
extrinsic ligaments
help stabalize the joint (bones to bones)
vascularity
the amount of blood a tissue requires
tendonitis
inflammation of a tendon, most commonly from overuse but also from infection or rheumatic disease
contusion
soft tissue is compressed against hard bone capillaries are torn which allows bleeding into tissues causing a bruise
strain
ligament or the joint capsule is stretched or torn
acute vs chronic injurys
Acute injuries happen suddenly, such as sprained ankles. Chronic injuries happen after you play a sport or exercise over a long period of time. Sports injuries are first treated with R-I-C-E: Rest, Ice, Compression (pressure on the injury), and Elevation (raise the injured area above the heart).
degree of sprains
1st degree is mild and should take a few days to heal
2nd degree moderate and requres rreatment from a physiotherapist
3rd degree most severe may require surgery often 6-12 months to fully recover
bones
most rigid tissue they will break before they bend
ligaments
are less rigid than bones but do not have the stretching properties of tendons ligaments are static joint stabilizers
tendons and muscles
are dynamic stabilizers tendons are more stretchy than igaments butt will tear if pushed too far
osteoarthritis
symptoms causes treatments and prevention
the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of your bones wears down over time.
symptoms: Pain. Stiffness. Tenderness. Loss of flexibility. Grating sensation. Bone spurs. Swelling.
causes genetics overuse previous injury
treatments surgery lose weight and be active
prevention be active keep a healthy body weight
what is cte
chronic traumatic encephalopathy
what is a serious injury
not currently a threat to athletes life but could become life threatning if not treated
what is a non life threating injury
soft tissue injuries such as muscle strains ligament strains abrasions cuts and blisters
