6 stages of bone healing
1. bleeding at fractured ends of bone, hematoma forms 2. hematoma orgnaized into fibrous network- hematoma converts to granulation tissue 3. callus forms, new bone is built up as osteoclasts destroy dead bone 4. ossification of the callus 5. consolidation- callus continues to develope, closing the distance between bone fragments 6. remodeling, accomplished as excess callus is reabsorbed and trabecular bone is laid down
206
purpose of traction
prevent or decrease pain and muscle spasm immobilized jint or body part reduced fracture or dislocation treat a pathologic joint condition pulling force to attain realignment

211
cast
temporary allows pt to preform many normal adl's made of various materials typically incorporates joints above and below fracture
212
lower extremity immobilization
elevate extremity above heart do NOT place in an dependent position observe for signs of compartment syndrome and increase pressure
213
cast care DO**
frquent neurovascular assessment apply ice for first 24 hrs elevate above heart for first 48 hrs exercise joints above and below use hair dryer on cool settinf for itching check with hcp before getting wet dry thoroughly after getting wet report increasing pain despite elevation,ice and analgesia report swelling associated with pain and discoloration or movement report burning or tingeling under cast report sores or foul odor under keep appt to have fx and cast checked/ removed
214
cast DONT
get plaster cast wet discourage pulling out cast padding place foreign objects in cast bear wieght on new cast first 48 hrs covet cast with plasic for long periods of time
215
external fixation
metal pins and rods applies traction compresses fracture fragments immobilized and hold fracture fragments in place mostly used for long bones assess for pin wosening for infection pin site care- per md order pt teaching
