Q

Osteoclasts

A

Cells that degrade bone to initiate normal bone remodeling and mediate bone loss in pathologic conditions by increasing their re-absorbitive activity. (reshapes bone)

Q

What are stress fractures and how to treat?

A

Q

What are subluxations, and how should they be treated?

A

Partial dislocation, the bone can be forced out of alignment but goes back into place. Commonly occurs in the shoulder joint or patella (knee cap). Reset the joint, administer pain relief, rehabilitation therapy, and, in severe cases, do surgery.

Q

Inflammatory phase (1st healing process of injury)

A

Happens immediately after injury, and is the most critical phase. Phagocytic cells clean up the mess created by the injury. Injured cells release chemicals that facilitate the healing process. Characterized by redness, swelling, tenderness, increased temperature, and loss of function. May last 2-4 days.

Q

Fibrolastic repair phase (2nd healing process of injury)

A

Proliferative and regenerative activity leading to scar formation and repair of the injured tissue occurs. May last as long as 4-6 weeks. Athletes will still experience some tenderness and pain with certain movements.

Q

Maturation remodeling phase (3rd healing process of injury)

A

Long term process, involves realignment of scar tissue according to tensile forces acting on the tissue. Collagen fibers that make up the scar realign to the position of maximum efficiency. (parallel to lines of tension) After 3 weeks a firm, strong, contracted, nonvascular scar exists. Maturation may take several years to totally complete.

Loss of consciousness, Headache that’s getting worse, lasts for a long time, or is severe, Confusion, Extreme sleepiness or trouble waking up, Vomiting, Weakness, numbness, or trouble walking or talking

85
Q

Return to play protocol for concussion

A

All symptoms from the concussion have resolved. Athletes are no longer on medication to reduce symptoms. Athletes must be performing at their pre-injury academic level. Then a gradual return to activity may take place.

Q

SOAP (O)

A

In this section, medical professionals record what they can observe through tests, touch, and measurements regarding the patient’s condition

88
Q

SOAP (A)

A

The third section is the A, or assessment, section. In this section, medical professionals use what they have found in the previous two sections to make a diagnosis of what is wrong with the patient.

89
Q

SOAP (P)

A

The last section is the P, or plan, section. In this section, medical professionals plan the course of treatment based on the diagnosis.

90
Q

HOPS (H)

A

History: Involves asking questions to help determine the mechanism of injury to access the injury

91
Q

HOPS (O)

A

Observation: Compare the non hurt to the injury, look for bleeding, deformity, swelling,discoloration,scars, and other signs of trauma

92
Q

HOPS (P)

A

Palpation: The athletic trainer should find the severe pain and needs to be evaluated.

93
Q

HOPS (S)

A

Special tests: The athletic trainer is looking for instability, disability, and pain.
