basics of tissue injuries (chap. 4)-sports med p2

involve ligament tissue, ligaments connect bone and bone

a ligament/muscle has been overstretched

a ligament/muscle has been partially torn

a ligament/muscle has been completely ruptured (most of time need surgery

involves muscle or tendon tissue, tendons attach bone to muscle

open wound made by a cutting object (scapal)

result from scraping off one or several layers of skin

closed wound that bleeds under the surface of skin (bruise)

a jagged, irregular, open wound

a partial tearing away of a body part

wound in which a body part is completely cut away from body

when a pointed object is driven deep into the tissue

occurs on opposite side of initial injury and most commonly occurs in brain (whiplash)

acute inflamatory

repair

remodeling

occurs when a significant force displaces a bone from joint

named according to type of impact and how the failure of the bone occurs, splint or cast for 6-8 weeks

ligament/tendon pulls so hard at its bony attachment that a portion of the bone is torn away

happens in bone that has been subjected to a repetitive stress, persistent sore spot over bone

torsional force along the length of a bone, looks like stripe on a candy cane

runs length of bone, usually caused by an impact

occurs when opposing forces are applied to bone from both ends at same time, often occurred in the spine

diagonal line across bone (similar to spiral)

when a bone is crushed into smaller pieces

adolescents' and children bone soft, bend and fracture only part way through

travels across bone, perpendicular to bone

usually occurs from a direct impact to skull, which naturally rounded, indents

eye is pushed hard backward and down into eye socket

a disease process like a bone tumor can weaken bones so that a little stress will cause a fracture (eating disorders common)

area of bone where bone growth occurs

fracture in which there is an open wound or break in skin near site of broken bone
