musculosketetal patho Flashcards
function of osteoblasts
build up bobe
function of osteoclasts
chew and destroys bone
-increases calcium levels
modeling
converts cartilage to adult bone
takes about 20 years
epiphyseal growth plate
allows for growth
remodeling
process of bone reabsorption and formation that is coupled or balanced
what affects remodeling
nutrition
physical activity
aging
hormone status
estrogen role in bone formation
promotes osteoblast activity
closes epiphyseal plate
promotes apoptosis of osteoclasts
strain
muscle and tendon
sprain
ligament and joint capsule
treatment for strains and sprains
RICE rest ice compression elevation
bursitis
inflammation or fluid buildup
dt increase use or pressure
dislocation
completely completed unaligned
- congenital
- traumatic
- pathologic
subluxation
partial dislocation
joint still in contact
clinical manifestations of fractures
deformity pain and tenderness abnormal movement contusion/ecchymosis crepitus (rubbing together) local shock
treatment of fractures
splint/ immobilization immediate
three objectives for treatment of fractures
reduction -closed vs open immobilization -external vs internal preservation and restoration of function
steps of bone healing
hematoma
fibrocartilaginous callus granulation
bony callus formation - ossification
remodelling
hematoma formation
most important 1-2 hematoma 2-5 hematoma initiates cellular events 7-clotting factors present release of growth hormones
fibrocartagious callus granulation
after day 7 fibroblasts -produce collagen -differentiate into chondrocytes osteoblasts -fibrocartilage collar
bony calls formation
3-4 weeks
ossification
fat embolism syndrome
from the presence of fat droplets in the small blood vessels of the lungs or other organs after lone bone fracture or complication of major trauma
clinical manifestations of fat embolism syndrome
3-4 days post injury subtle change in behavior respiratory failure -dyspnea with tachycardia -pallor and cyanosis cerebral dysfunction sub-sternal chest pain low grade pain diaphoresis 2-3 days non blanchable petechia rash
osteomyelitis
ACUTE OR CHRONIC INFECTION OF bone and bone marrow by a parasite, bacteria, virus, or fungus
endogenous osteomyelitis
via blood stream
cutaneous, sinus, ear dental infections
