strain/sprains Flashcards
continued deform over time when constantly loaded
-in tissue, due to expulsion of water
creep
corresponding eventual decrease in stress that occurs as fluid is no longer exuded
relaxation
energy loss exhibited by a viscoelastic materials when they are subjected to loading and unloading cycles
hysteresis
- the larger the stress load the greater the ___, which decreases when the load is applied a second time
- discs are less protected against rep loads
hysteresis
- normal range of motion, where little force is req to remove the “crimping” or “slack” in the tissue
- after this, tissue resists elongation much more strongly
toe region
small amount of damage to the tissue that occurs after taking out the slack in the soft tissue
micro failure
the stress when plastic deformation starts
yield stress
the tissue undergoes plastic deformation (grade 2 sprain), causes eventual tissue rupture (grade 3)
macro failure
injury to soft tissue that occurs up to 72 hr
inflammation
after 48h, injury will ___, and after 3 weeks to 12 months it will ___
repair
remodel
a ___ is an overexertion or stress on contractil tissues
strain
structure most at risk, esp LE like hamstrings, rectus femoris, medial gastroc, sometimes biceps brachii in UE
muscle
structure that isnt truly contractile but is in series with muscle to transmit the force to the bone
tendon
strain type with only a few of the fibers torn, there is only minor weakness and loss of function
grade one
strain type with about 1/4-1/2 of the muscle/tendon torn, with moderate to major weakness and loss of function
grade two
