swelling

Question 9

types of chronic injuries

Answer 9

archilles tensoisitis
elbow tenis
stress fracture

Question 10

archilles tendositis

Answer 10

tendons-connet muscle to bone
over use injury that causes pain and innflamation of the tendon
located at back of ankle

Question 11

stress fracture

Answer 11

over use injury where area becomes tender and sollen

msucles become fatigued and no longer able to absord added shock from exercise

Question 12

tennis elbow

reduce chances of injury

Question 14

screening

Answer 14

detcts problem early before any symptoms occur

many young athelets may use CRY heart scanning
EEG used to assess and moniotr the heart

asses muscle imbalances, core strength, range of moevemtn and mobility

adv-save lives
dis-not always 100% accurate
miss a problem (false negative)
identify problem that does not exist(false postive)

Question 15

protective equipment

Answer 15

rugby
gum sheilds
football
shin pads
cricket
battiling pads

Question 16

warm up

Answer 16

reduces risk of injury by increasing elasticity of the muscle tissue
first stage-cardiovascualr endurace gets HR going, gets more oxygen going to workign msucles
second stage-stretching
ballistic-jumping/swining movements
ststic-no moevemnt
passive-external force used e.g partner
active-working on one joint, pushing it beyond resistance
third satge-moving patterners copied ut for real game e.g shooting practices

Question 18

taping and bracing

Answer 18

taping-help ith suppport and stability to reduce risk of injury

Question 19

injury rehabiitation methods

Answer 19

ways of making recovery stage shorter

Question 20

proprireceptive training

Answer 20

uses hopping and jumping movements
restore lost proprioreceptors
teach nody to control psotiton
e.g balance board used for sprained ankle
strengthens joint

Question 21

strength training

Answer 21

using free weight or resistance weigths, or therabands, body weight

more liekly to use resitnce weigths at early stages as they have more of thecontrol
free weights later on in recovery stage

Question 22

hyperbaric chambers

Answer 22

chmber is pessurisides 100% pure oxygen
pressure increases amount of oxygen tp break in, oxygen can be diffused in injured area
excess oxygen dissolves in plasma to reduce swelling
increase blood activity to active site

Question 23

cryotherapy

Answer 23

use of COLD temperatures to treat injury
chamber is cooled by liquid nitrogen to temperates below 100 degrees
performer stands in chamber for up to 3 mins
blood from arms and legs flow towards core in attempt to protect vital oragns and keep body warm
when out of chamber, blood returns back to arms and legs containing oxygen to help heal injured cells

Question 24

hydrotherapy

Answer 24

takes place in warm water
to improbve blood circaultion, relieve pain and relax muscles
pools are heated to approixmately 35-37 degrees
increase blood circulation
buyoncy of water helps with body weight
