Musculoskeletal

QuestionAnswer
5 functions of bones structural support, storage of minerals, production of blood cells, protects body organs, provides leverage & movement
osteogenesis bone growth
trabecular bone and example spongy, cancellous bone ex: wrist, hip, and vertebrae
cortical bone dense
osteoblasts bone forming cells
osteocytes are mature osteoblasts that maintain bone matrix
osteoclasts' function bone reabsorption and keep bone tissue from overgrowing
ligaments connect moveable bones to joints
tendons connect muscles to bones
synovial fluid is located in synovium of join capsule lubricates & facilitates movement
tonus the state of muscle readiness
flaccid a muscle that is limp and without tone
spastic muscle with greater - than - normal tone
antonic muscle denervated muscle
hypertrophy increase in size
atrophy decrease in muscle size
what are MS diagnostic tools x ray studies, ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging
what are concerning MS symptom cool extremities, pallor or cyanosis, cap refill > 3 seconds, decreased or absent DTR's
sprain overstretch ligament with possible tear
strain overstretch of muscle or tendon
muscle contusion a bruise of the muscle
closed (complete) a fracture in which bone fragments separate completely
open (compound) fracture of bone that protrudes to the outside of the body
incomplete a fracture in which the bone fragments are still partially joined
compression a fracture that consists of the crushing of cancellous bone
transverse a fracture where parts of the bone are separated but close to each other
comminuted a fracture with more than one fracture line and more than two bone fragments, which may be shattered or crushed
stress fracture a failure of one cortical surface of the bone, often caused by repetitive activity
avulsion separation of a small fragment of bone at the site of attachment of a ligament or tendon
greenstick an incomplete break in the bone with the intact side of the cortex flexed (one side is broken and the other is bent)
impacted one part of the fracture is compressed into an adjacent part of the fracture
spiral fracture twisting force causes a fracture line that encircles the shaft of the bone
1st stage of bone healing fracture & inflammatory phase
2nd stage of bone healing granulation tissue formation
3rd stage of bone healing callus formation consisting of osteoblasts & chondroblasts
4th stage of bone healing lamellar bone deposition
5th stage of bone healing remodeling
fat embolism occurs when fat globules form the marrow of fractured bone enter the circulation
delayed union fracture healing taking longer than expected
nonunion fracture with no chance of healing
malunion healing of bone in an unacceptable position
if there is poor perfusion and neurovascular changes, what would you see? pulselessness, pallor, paresthesia, paralysis, pain
what is rhabdomyolysis muscle breakdown
rhabdomyolysis triad of symptoms myalgia, weakness, and myoglobinuria
who is at risk for developing an infection after a MS injury diabetes, drugs, peripheral vascular disease
joint dislocation when articular surfaces of bones are not aligned
what is a pathological fracture bone is weakened - fracture occurs without significant trauma
who is at highest risk for a hip fracture? very high incidence among older adults & associated with a high risk of mortality
bursitis inflammation of the bursae of joints
symptoms of bursitis pain, swelling, stiffness around joint
causes of bursitis repetitive movements, excessive pressure on joints, injury
tendonitis inflammation of tendons
symptoms of tendonitis severe pain at affected pain, tenderness, mild swelling or thickening
causes of tendonitis repetitive movements, excessive pressure on joints, injury
carpal tunnel syndrome median nerve pressed at the wrist
symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome pain, tingling, numbness of hand, fingers, weakness in hands
causes of carpal tunnel syndrome pregnancy, trauma, occupation, diabetic neuropathy, hypothyroidism
what is necessary to have in our diet for bone health calcitonin
PTH helps regulate calcium how? activate bone formation and bone breakdown
Vitamin D helps regulate calcium how? facilitates absorption of calcium
calcitonin helps regulate calcium how? enhances calcium entry into bone & inhibits osteoclast
which sex hormones play a role in bone health? tesosterone and estrogen
arthropathy joint disorder
monoarticular arthritis of one joint
polyarticular arthritis of more than 1 joint
cartilage is made up of chondrocyte and is a thin flexible tissue on the surfaces of the ends of 2 opposing joints and provides cushion
how does the cartilage deteriorate and what does it lead to? osteoarthritis
osteoporosis risk factors female, family history, hyperthyroidism
primary causes of osteoporosis prolonged negative calcium balance
secondary causes of osteoporosis disorders that affect bone tissue
symptoms of osteoporosis severe back pain, loss of height, kyphosis
diagnosis of osteoporosis dual energy x ray absorptiometry
risk factors of osteoarthritis aging, obesity, participation in sports
causes of osteoarthritis trauma to joints over course of life
symptoms of osteoarthritis deep, aching joint pain, joint pain in cold weather, joint tenderness, decrease range of motion
diagnosis of osteoarthritis no specific test; serum markers, physical exam, x - ray
risk factors of degenerative disc disease acute injuries, obesity, smoking, demanding jobs
causes of degenerative disc disease nervous system affected as vertebral disc distortions compromise spinal nerves
symptoms of lumbar DDD pain in lower back radiates down the back of leg, pain in butt or thighs, pain that worsens when sitting or bending, foot drop
symptoms of cervical DDD chronic neck pain, numbing or tingling in arm or hand
diagnosis of DDD X ray, MRI, EEG
how can bone get infected? due to break in the bone, infection in the blood stream
osteomyelitis an infection of the bone
what causes osteomyelitis s. auerus
3 categories of osteomyelitis hematogenous, contiguous, chronic
hematogenous osteomyelitis rapid onset of symptoms; most causes in children
contiguous osteomyelitis trauma and surgery are common causes & decubitus ulcers
chronic osteomyelitis longer than 6-8 weeks, lack of response to medications, necrotic bone & increased gangrene risk
what are symptoms of OM and who is at risk increased risk are people with DM or PVD chills, malaise, fever, erythema, edema
how is OM diagnosed CBC, ESR, C- RP bone biopsy to confirm
what is gout a form of arthritis that causes severe pain, swelling, redness & tenderness in joints
how is gout triggered by hyperuricemia
what is primary gout metabolic disorder
what is secondary gout due to other disorders
what part of the body can gout affect and what symptoms are there affects first metatarsal pain presents with redness, warmth & swelling
tophi uric acid crystals may be deposited in subcutaneous tissue
podagara acute inflammation of metatarsophalangeal joint of great toe
what are the risk factors for gout diet high in meat, high alc assumption, obesity
what are the complications of gout destruction of cartilage & bone, joint deformity, kidney stones
the gold standard to diagnose gout is aspiration of joint showing urate crystals
