Q

Treatment of Avulsion Injuries:

A
  • Most difficult to treat.
  • Surgeons can perform nerve transfers.
  • These may or may not take.

37
Q

When dealing with fractures you must get orders from who?

A

Physician

38
Q

fracture does not puncture the skin

A

Closed fracture

39
Q

fracture that punctures the skin

A

Open fracture

40
Q

What are the 3 types of open fractures?

A

type 1
type 2
type 3

41
Q

small puncture wound without gross contamination –the fracture is noncomminuted

A

type 1 open fracture

42
Q

aceration>1cm with Min – Modsoft tissue crush –fracture still simple

A

type 2 open fracture

43
Q
  • Type IIIA –extensive soft tissue injury but still adequate to obtain coverage
  • Type IIIB –extensive soft tissue injury will likely require delayed coverage via skin graft or flap
  • Type IIIC –same as typeIIIB with arterial injury requiring repair orreconstruction*Most type III are comminuted fractures**
A

type 3 open fracture

44
Q

Displaced vs. Non-displaced fractures:

A

– Provides maximum fracture stability, allows early mobilization

A

open reduction internal fixation (ORIF)

49
Q

Why do we care about fractures:

A
