17
Q

What is the key difference between a tensile force and a compressive force?
• A. A tensile force pulls or stretches tissue, while a compressive force squeezes or crushes tissue.
• B. A tensile force causes sliding, while a compressive force causes twisting.
• C. A tensile force acts parallel to the tissue, while a compressive force acts perpendicularly.

18
Q

Which of the following describes a neuropraxia injury?
• A. Complete severance of a nerve
• B. Temporary nerve damage with intact axon
• C. Disruption of the nerve’s endoneurium
• D. Inflammatory damage to the nerve sheath

19
Q

What is the most common location for dislocations?
• A. Spine
• B. Shoulder and fingers
• C. Hips and knees
• D. Wrist and ankles

20
Q

What type of injury results from internal forces generated by the body?
• A. Direct injuries
• B. Indirect injuries
• C. Open fractures
• D. Shear injuries

21
Q

What is a nerve injury called that has little to no disruption of the nerve sheath and the axon remains intact. However, if repeated, scar tissue can build up and disrupt the nerve impulse and pathway?

*	A. Axonotmesis
*	B. Neurotmesis
*	C. Neuropraxia
*	D. Neuroproxia
22
Q

What is a nerve injury called that includes disruption of the axon and surrounding endoneurial sheath. The episode and perineurium remain intact and continuous.

*	A. Axonotmesis
*	B. Neurotmesis
*	C. Neuropraxia
*	D. Neuroproxia
23
Q

What is the nerve injured called that involves severe damage or severance of the entire nerve. There is damage to mast of the nerve structures including: axon, myelin, and the surrounding connective tissue. It is associated with axon degeneration and the ealing is often blocked by scar tissue or nerve transection.

*	A. Axonotmesis
*	B. Neurotmesis
*	C. Neuropraxia
*	D. Neuroproxia
24
Q

True or false?

Fracture classification includes transverse, oblique, spiral, comminuted, segmental, avulsed, impacted, torus, and greenstick.

25
Q

True or false?

The stress overload cycle starts with muscle fatigue –> loss of shock absorption –> structural stress to bone –> remodelling (which can lead to stress fracture) –> pain –> (in)voluntary disuse –> muscle atrophy (bip)
