Superficial Tissues and Injuries Flashcards
Epithelial Tissue
main tissue of the skin, lines body cavities and tubes
Connective Tissue
framework for most organs. supports other tissues and parts
Nerve Tissue
pathway for communication from central nervous system to muscles and organs
Muscle Tissue
fibers contracting allowing muscles to produce movement and power
Soft Tissues
fascia, cartilage muscles, tendons, ligaments, veins and arteries
Rotation
Circular motion
Adduction
Towards body
Abduction
away from body
Extension
increased angle between two bones
Flexion
decreased angle between two bones
Inversion
turn inward
Eversion
turn outward
Cardiac muscle tissue
makes up walls of the heart and contracts
Smooth/ Visceral Musle tissue
found throughout body in internal organs, respiratory tract, digestive tract
Skeletal/ striated muscle
attaches to bones and produces movement upon command from brain
Atrophy
muscles aren’t used they begin to waste or thin
Muscle tone
muscles remain partially contracted at all times even at rest
Muscle strains
overstretching or tearing of muscles or adjacent tissues such as facias or tendons
Myositis Ossificans
condition in which calcium is produced within the muscles after a blow
Tendonitis
Repeated stress to tendons, micro tearing of tendon sheath
Fibrous
immovable, bones and cranium and skull
Cartilaginous
slightly moveable, joints such as sternocostal and public symphysis
Synovial
freely moveable, joints are elbow, knee, hip and fingers
Ligamanents
bones to bones
Tendons
muscles to bones
Syn fluid
shock absorber
bursa
sac of syn fluid
Ball and soccket
round fit into cup end
Hinge
two surfaces molded closely
Condyloid
round end fits into oval
Pivot
projection fits through ring made up of bone and ligament
Saddle
two surfaces, convex and concave
Gliding
two facing bones surfaces meet, allowing only gliding movement
Compression
forces that crush tissues
Tension
force that stretches or pulls tissue
Shear
force that moves agasint parallel organaization
Dislocation
joint moved passed anatomical limit
Subxalation
partical dislocation
Bursitis
inflammation of the bursa
Synovitis
inflammatio of synovial membrane
bones
calcium and phosphorus
Bone types
long bone, short, flat, irregular, sesamoid
Avulsion
lig or tendon tear of part of bone from attachment site
Stress
rep. stress
Greenstick
break along bojne shaft, bone bent
Impacted
bon efrag embedded into other bone frag
longitudal
bone split lengthwise
oblique
diagonal break one end torsion, pother fixed
spiral
s shaped, violent twisting
transverse
across bone shaft
communited
3 or more frag
blowout
direct blow to eye
slater-harris
across epiphyseal plate
