Chapter 9- Mechanism and Characteristics of Sports Trauma Flashcards
a fracture in which ligament tears off of part of the bone
avulsion fracture
the glenohumeral joint
ball and socket joint
this is a compression injury
contusion
this means tissue discoloration
ecchymosis
this is a resistance to a load
stress
this is deformation of a tissue
strain
a group of 3 or more bone fragments
comminuted fracture
this joins bone to bone
ligament
occurs after repeated joint sprains
capsulitis
inflammation of a muscles tissue
myositis
cause of osteochondrosis
aseptic necrosis
the elbow joint
hinge joint
muscle soreness that happens after 2-3 days
DOMS
a stress fracture is a
spontaneous fracture
this joins muscle to bone
tendon
what happens when an intact ligament is traumatically stressed?
avulsion fracture
what is a tendinitis that leads to mineral deposits
calcific tendonitis
in throwing, muscles exert a tremendous amount of force on the distal and proximal humeral epiphysis during the acceleration face, damaging the
radial head
approximately 85% of all ankle injuries result from
inversion
a contusion can penetrate the outer layer of the bone causing
periostitis
the technical name for a total disunion between two articulatory processes is
luxation
what are some common sites for stress fractures
tibia, fibula, metatarsal shaft, femur, ribs, humerus
what features do all synovial articulations have in common?
have a capsule and ligaments
capsule is lined with a synovial membrane
opposing bone surfaces contain hyaline cartilage
joint space containing synovial fluid
list the four progressively severe stress fractures
focal microfractures
periostel and end-steal response
linear fractures
displaced fractures
muscles try to stabilize joints in what ways?
cross joint muscles assist in proper alignment
some attach to articulacy capsule and tighten it when stretched
Which is more susceptible to n injury, muscle of its tendon? why?
a muscle because tears occur there and is the weakest between it and the tendon, and the weakest structure is damaged first
what factors would you use in evaluating dislocations
loss of limb function
deformity
swelling and tenderness
how to determine stress fracture of anterior leg pain
look for swelling, focal tenderness, and pain
