Types Of Soft Tissues And Classification Of Injuries Flashcards
Collagenous
Tough strong bundled great tensile strength
Reticular
Found in spleen lymph nodes and bone marrow defends against harmful substances
Hemopoietic
Composes bone marrow in the lymphatic system forms RBCs wbc’s and platelets
Dense fibrous
Composers tendons ligaments deep facia dermis capsules around organs and scar tissue it provides a strong flexible connections
Ligament
Connect bone to bone one stretched forever stretched
Tendon
Connects muscle Tbone
Muscle
Contractile tissue shortens and lengthens full of blood vessels exist in pairs
Cartilage
Gristle like padding on or between bones at the joints
Hyaline cartilage
Smooth surface allows for easy glide
Fibrocartilage disk
Provide support and cushion like the meniscus in your knee
Joint capsule
Encloses freely movable joints is lined with synovial membrane that secretes lubricating fluid
Bursa
Fibrous tissue lined synovial sack of fluid between moving structures outside the joint between tendon and bone allow friction free movement
Acute injury
Sudden in onset
Chronic injury
Usually has gradual onset and his long lasting pain when doing activity
Atrophy
Muscle wasting or losing muscle mass
Hypertrophy
Muscle building or enlarged muscles not just skeletal muscle
Bursitis
Inflammation of the bursa
Adhesion
Scar tissue or membrous connections that bind tissues down
Contusion
Bump or impact to the body
Ecccymosis
Bruce refers to the black and blue coloration of contusion
