musculoskeletal 2; treatment for fractures and infection Flashcards
fat has opportunity to enter bloodstream
thick blood with potentially huge clot
petechiae
fat embolism syndrome
ischemia
inadequate blood supply to organs
hematogenous osteomyelitis
secondary infection from another body infection
can happen without a broken bone
fat embolism syndrome
fat has opportunity to enter bloodstream
thick blood with potentially huge clot
petechiae
clavicle fractures
dislocations
bursa damage
torn tendons
rotator cuff injuries
knee injuries include
meniscus
cruciate ligament
chondromalacia
bone/ bone marrow infection
iatrogenic
continuous (open wound)
osteomyelitis
petechiae
small bright red blood dots under the skin
impaired bone fracture healing
age medication disease stress at site circulation problems poor nutrition
increase in fascial pressure in limited space circulation is compromised cell death (cast is too tight) lose leg/arm within hours
compartment syndrome
compartment syndrome
increase in fascial pressure in limited space circulation is compromised cell death (cast is too tight) lose leg/arm within hours
iatrogenic
caused mistakenly by medical treatment
cartilage underneath patella softens and weakens
chondromalacia
strain
overuse of muscle or tendon
increase risk of complete tear with age and chronic use
common in athletes and elderly for opposite reasons
shoulder injury (rotator cuff)
small bright red blood dots under the skin
petechiae
hematoma forms
callus formation
bony callous formation remodeling
healing of bone fracture process
osteomyelitis
bone/ bone marrow infection
iatrogenic
continuous (open wound)
inadequate blood supply to organs
ischemia
if remodeling doesnt happen
addition to bone is hitting nerve endings and still hurting; surgery is needed for removal
callus is reabsorbed
remodeling
secondary infection from another body infection
can happen without a broken bone
hematogenous osteomyelitis
