INFLAMMATORY disorders of musculoskeletal tissue Flashcards
the frequency with which a condition occurs over a period of time and in relation to the population in which it occurs
incidence
number of cases a disease presents in a specific population at a given time
prevalence
slow progressive, degeneration of joint structures which can lead to loss of mobility
osteoarthritis
disorder of unknown cause but thought to be related to articular cartilage
primary osteoarthritis
trauma infection or osteonecrosis arthrities
secondary osteoarthritis
osteoarthritis is blank arthritis
wear and tear
changes in bone causing it to become dense and hard like ivory
eburnation
osteoarthritis causes eburnations because of increased blank on other bones
loads
symptoms that progress gradually
insidious
pain from osteoarthritis may be described as blank
deep ache
loss of blank is associated with osteoarthritis
flexibility
inflammation of fibrous connective tissue serving as connection of muscle and bone
tendinitis
inflammation of the lubricating fluid of the joint due to contractile tissue involvement
tendosynovitis
inflammation of a synovial membrane due to damaged cartilage or exposure to cold and dampness
synovitis
inflammation of the pad like sac found in connective tissue
bursitis
infected joint from osteomyelitis
septic joint
inflammation of bone caused by infectious organism
osteomyelitis
osteomyelitis occurs more often in blank than blank
boy children, adults
type of osteomyelitis most common and seen in children
acute hematogenous
osteomyelitis more common in adults who are immunocompromised
chronic
usual cause of osteomyelitis
S. aureus
deep continuous pain that increases with weight bearing can be blank
osteomyelitis
any person with an acute onset of joint pain and disability should be evaluated for possible blank
sepsis (septic arthritis)
children with a septic joint may refuse to blank and be very tender to blank
bear weight, palpation
septic joint is often accompanied by other blank symptoms
infection like
chronic, systemic, inflammatory disease that is diagnosed by a blood test
rheumatoid arthritis
rheumatoid arthritis may involve other blank
systems (cardiopulm, gastrointestinal)
1-2% of population of blank
ra
rheumatoid arthritis is thought to be a blank disease
autoimmune
the blank can proliferate and encroach the joint space in ra
pannus
symptoms of early ra
joint stiffness, pain, fatigue, weakness
after periods of rest, intense joint pain and stiffness may last from blank to blank
30 mins, several hours
blank is the deformity associated with ra
swan neck of fingers
diagnosis of ra is based on blank
lab tests, history, physical exams
two ra criteria of association
morning stiffness for at least 1 hour and present for 6 weeks, swelling of joints for at least six weeks
juvenile ra form marked by a fever and rash that usually appears on trunk and extremities
stills disease
inflammatory arthropathy of the axial skeleton like the si joints, costovertebral joints, and iv discs
ankylosing spondylitis
ankylosing spondylitis is marked by a chronic blank
inflammation
unknown etiology but a blank link is suspected for ankylosing spondylitis
genetic/environmental
ankylosing spondylitis causes loss of blank mobility in multiple planes
spinal
uric acid in joints and kidneys
gout
gout is caused by things like alcohol which decrease the blank of uric acid
excretion
tendinitis three key impairments
active motion, isometric pain, palpative tenderness
key to tendinitis management
stage of healing identification
two key impairments of bursitis
abnormal end feel, local pain
wear and tear condition of iv disc
spondylosis
defect to pars interarticularis that affects alignment due to slippage
spondylolisthesis
