1.2 Tissue Healing Flashcards
What is overstretching, overexertion or overuse of soft tissue
Strain
What is severe stress, stretch, or tear of soft tissues, such as joint capsule, ligament, tendon, or muscle; graded as a first (mild), second (moderate), or third (severe) degree
Sprain
What is pain is experienced in the region of the break when the muscle is stretched or when it contracts against resistance
Muscle/Tendon Rupture or Tear - Partial Tear
What is the muscle does not pull against the injury, so stretching or contracting of the muscle does not cause pain
Muscle/Tendon Rupture or Tear - Complete Tear
What is incomplete or partial dislocation of the bony partners in a joint that involves secondary trauma to surrounding soft tissue
Subluxation
What is displacement of a part, usually the bony partners in a joint, resulting in loss of the anatomical relationship & leading to soft tissue damage, inflammation, pain, & muscle spasm
Dislocation
What is inflammation of synovial membrane; an excess of normal synovial fluid in a joint or tendon sheath caused by trauma or disease
Synovitis
What is bruising from direct blow, resulting in capillary rupture, bleeding, edema, and an inflammatory response
Contusion
What is bleeding into a joint, usually caused by severe trauma
Hemarthrosis
What is cumulative trauma disorders, & repetitive strain injury; repeated, submaximal overload and/or frictional wear to a muscle or tendon resulting in inflammation and pain
Overuse Syndromes
What is term that refers to tendon injury affected by mechanical loading
Tendinopathy
What is inflammation of the synovial membrane covering a tendon
Tenosynovitis
What is inflammation of a tendon; may be resulting scarring or calcium deposits
Tendinitis
What is inflammation with thickening of a tendon sheath
Tenovaginitis
What is degeneration of the tendon caused by repetitive microtrauma
Tendinosis
