ch10: tissue healing and wound care Flashcards
(56 cards)
how does force act
- acceleration or change in velocity
- deformation or change in shape
injury occurs based on two factors
- size or magnitude of the force
- material properties of the involved tissues
what happens when load exceeds the materials yield point or elastic limit response
- plastic
- load is removed= some deformation remains
anisotropic
structure is stronger than in resisting forces from certain directions compared to others
mechanical stress
force divided by the surface area over which the force is applied
- over large area = resulting stress is less
- over small area = mechanical stress is higher
torque
product of a force and its moment arm, rotary force
forces moment arm
perpendicular distance from the forces line of action to the axis of rotation
outer region of the skin
EPIDERMIS
- pigment melanin
- hair, nails, sebaceous glands, sweat glands
- outer surface = dead epithelial cells replaced every 3-4 wks by new cells pushed up from the dermis
Dermis
largest portion of the skin, provides strength and structure
aponeuroses
structure formed by dense, regular connective tissue
- strong, flat, sheetlike tissues that attach m. to other muscles or bones
muscle characteristics
- extensibility
- elasticity
- irritability
fibrous jnts
- held together by fibrous tissue
- mvt depend on the length of the fibers uniting the bones
- can absorb shock
- little to no mvt
- sutures
syndesmoses
fibrous jnt
- joined by fibrous tissue that permit extremely limited ROM
gomphosis jnt
found btw tooth and the bone in its socket
cartilaginous jnt
- unite bones by either hyalin cartilage or fibrocartilage
- sternocostal jnt, epiphyseal plates
- strong, slightly movable
- designed for strength and shock absorption
- pubic symphysis
- intervertebral jnt
synovial jnt
- most common
- free mvt btw articulating bone surfaces
clases of synovial diarthhrodial jnts
- plane
- hinge
- pivot
- condyloid
- saddle
- ball and socket
plane jnts
articulating surfaces are nearly flat
- inter metatarsal
- intercarpal
- facet jnt
hinge jnt
one bone surface is concave, on his convex
- permits flexion and ext
pivot jnt
rounded or conical end of one bone rotates within a sleeve or ring composed of bone
- atlantoaxial jnt
- radioulnar
condyloid jnt
oval articular surface of one bone fis into reciprocal concavity of another
- wrist jnts
saddle jnt
biaxial jnt
allowing greater freedom of mvt
ball and socket
spherical head of one bone articulates w/ the socket of another
grades of m. contusions
1: little to no restriction in ROM
2: noticeable reduction in ROM
3: fascia may be ruptured, swollen m. tissue protruding
