Chapter 9 Flashcards
5 Types of Tissue Loading producing stress and strain
- Compression
- Tension
- Shearing
- Bending
- Torsion
Acute Onset Muscle Soreness
Accompanies fatigue
Transient and occurs during and immediately after exercise
At what % of a load increase is a tendons breaking point?
6%-8%
Bone Structure: Articular Cartilage
at ends of long bones, covering joint surfaces of epiphysis
Provides protection during movement and cushions jars and blows
Bone Structure: Diaphysis
Main shaft of long bone
Hollow and cylindrical and covered in compact bone
Bone Structure: endosteum
lines medullar cavity
Bone Structure: epiphysis
located at ends of long bones
Composed primarily of cancellous bone, giving it sponge-like appearance
Bone Structure: medullary cavity
hollow tube in long bone diaphysis
Contains a yellow, fatty marrow in adults
Bone Structure: Periosteum
Covers long bones
Causes of DOMS
may occur from very small tears in the muscle tissue
May occur from disruption of the connective tissue that holds muscle tendon fibres together
Definition: Atrophy
wasting away of muscle tissue
Main causes are immobilization, inactivity and loss of nerve innervation
Definition: Blowout Fracture
occurs to the wall of the eye orbit as a result of a blow to the eye
Definition: Capsulitis
chronic inflammatory condition occurring after repeated joint sprains of micro traumas
Definition: closed fracture
little or no movement or displacement of the broken bones
Definition: Contracture
Abnormal shortening of muscle tissues, great deal of resistance to passive touch
Definition: Creep
deformation in the shape and/or properties of a tissue that occurs with the application of a constant load over time
Definition: Deformation
internal strain placed on the tissues from stress
Definition: Diastasis
Separation of two articulating bones
Definition: Elasticity
property allowing a tissue to return to normal following deformation
Definition: hyperesthesia
Increased sense of feeling such as pain or touch
Definition: hypoesthesia
diminished sense of feeling
Definition: Load
external force acting on tissues that causes internal reactions within the tissues
Definition: Mechanical Failure
Ability of the tissue to withstand stress and strain is exceeded
Definition: Muscle Strain
muscle overstretched by tension or forced to contract against too much resistance, separation or tearing of the muscle fibres occurs
Definition: Neuritis chronic nerve problem
Definition: Neuropraxia
interruption in conduction of the impulse down the nerve fiber
Definition: Open fracture
enough displacement of the fractured ends that the bones breaks through surrounding tissues, including the skin
Increases the possibility of infection
Definition: Overuse
chronic -> occur with repetitive dynamics of running, throwing or jumping
or
recurrent -> traumatic injuries that occur multiple times
Definition: Paresthesia
numbness, prickling, ot tingling, which may occur from a direct blow to or stretch of an area
Definition: Sarcoplasm
semifluid inside the muscle fiber cell
Definition: Stiffness
relative ability of a tissue to resist a particular load
Definition: Strain
Extent of the deformation of tissue when it is loaded
Definition: Stress
internal resistance of the tissue when it is loaded
Definition: Synovitis
active joint congestion with edema (chronic)
Definition: Tedninitis
Inflammation of the tendon
Definition: Tendinopathy
most used to refer to tendinitis and tendinitis
Definition: Tendinosis
microtears and degeneration of a tendon
Definition: Trauma
Physical injury or wound that is produced by an external or internal force
Definition: Trauma
Physical injury or wound that is produced by an external or internal force
Definition: Yield Point
tissue deformed to extent that it no longer reacts elasticity
Delayed-Onset Muscle Soreness
appears approximately 12 hours after injury
Becomes most intense after 20-48 hours
becomes symptoms free after 3-4 days
Grade 1 Muscle Strain
some fibers stretched or actually torn
Some tenderness and pain on AROM
Mvm’t painful, full ROM possible
Grade 2 Muscle Strain
number of muscle fibers torn
active contraction of muscle painful
Depression or divot can be felt somewhere in muscle belly at place of strain
Swelling may occur
ROM decreased due to pain
Grade 3 Muscle Strain
complete rupture of muscle
Significant impairment to or perhaps total loss of mvm’t due to disruption of nerve fibers
initially intense pain but quickly diminishes b/c of complete unloading
how long does it take to heal a muscle strain?
6-8 weeks
how to prevent muscle soreness
Beginning exercise at a moderate level and gradually progressing the intensity of exercise overtime
True or False: A tendon is usually double the strength of the muscle it serves?
True
what 5 basic functions do bones perform?
- body support
- Organ protection
- Movement
- Calcium storage
- Formation of blood cells (hematopoises)
