False, its a general term for any tendon pathology. Tendinitis is an acute inflammation.
38
What are degenerative changes in a tendon called?
Tendinosis
39
T/F The term tendinopathy is preferred because it's difficult to distinguish between tendinosis and tendinitis.
True
40
What is inflammation of the synovial sheath called?
Tendosynovitis
41
What is inflammation of the peritendinous layer around a tendon?
Peritendonitis
42
What is the process of developing mineral deposits that resemble bone called?
Ectopic calcification
43
What is the process of developing bone in a muscle called?
Myositis ossificans
44
What is the process of developing bone in a tendon called?
calcific tendinopathy
45
What are the four stages of overuse injuries?
1. pain after activity only 2. pain during activity, does not restrict 3. pain during activity, restricts 4. chronic, pain even at rest
46
What is the plasmalike fluid composed of protein and leukocytes that exudes out of tissues?
Exudate
47
T/F: Chronic inflammation is characterized by nongrannular leukocytes and the production of scar tissue.
True
48
What are the three mechanisms that activate with acute inflammation?
1. Local vasoconstriction 2. Platelet reaction causing clotting 3. Coagulation cascade
49
What is the movement of a neutrophil from the circulation into tissue called?
Diapedesis
50
After initial vasocontriction, what two things prompt vasodilation in an acute injury?
1. Complement cascade of proteins 2. Kinin cascade
51
What are connective tissue cells that carry heparin (prolongs clotting and histamine response) called?
Mast cells
52
T/F: Histamine is a vasodilator?
True
53
How many zones of injury are there in an acute injury.
2, the actual injury and the space around that is affected by the aftermath (edema, inflammation hypoxia). of the injury.
54
How long does the inflammatory phase last on average?
0-6 days
55
