21

22
Q

What type of pathology occurs when osteoclasts activity outweighs osteoblasts activity? What structural changes occur in compact and cancellous bone?

A

Osteoporosis. Look up symptoms in book

23
Q

Name three types of fractures

A

Compound, simple, green stick

24
Define a compound fracture
Also known as open fracture. Bone penetrates skin and open to the environment
25
Define simple fracture
Also known as closed fracture. Broken bone confined to inside the body. Ie opposite of open
26
Define green stick fracture
A partial break resulting in splinters. Usually occurs only in children.
27
How many stages of healing are there?
4
28
First stage of healing a fracture
Haematona (blood clot) formed
29
Second stage of healing a fracture
Fibroblasts (make fibres) and chondroblasts (make cartilage) firm a soft callus
30
Third stage of healing a fracture
Osteoblasts replace with bone tissue forming a hard callus
31
Last stage of healing a fracture
Bone remodelling via osteoblasts and osteoclasts
