Q

Proliferative Stage - repair phase

A

Hematoma is broken down and replaced with granulation tissue (scar tissue is being formed)

Eventually healthier tissue replaces granulation tissue and as the amount increases so does the tensile strength of the tissue

24
Q

What is misfeasance?

A

Occurs when an individual commits an act that is one’s responsibility to perform but either uses the wrong procedure or does the correct procedure in an improper manner (e.g. if an AT suspects a neck injury and improperly secures the head and neck area to the spine board)

25
Q

What is nonfeasance?

A

Occurs when an individual fails to perform the legal duty of care (e.g. if an AT suspects a neck injury (or should suspect one) and fails to use a spinal board to stabilize the individual)

26
Q

What is gross negligence?
