25
Why is good technique, movement control and coordination important
Helps individuals
- **enhance, learn, relearn fundamental and sport specific movement patterns and skills**
- **execute movements** with **greater precision and efficiency**
- **generate** a **fast and optimal muscle firing patten**
- **increase joint stability**
- **decrease joint forces**
26
Improper technique case 1 in floor ball
- improper knee alignment (abduction) results in valgus injury due to improper running technique/ changing direction, sudden dynamic movements cause partial/complete ACL tear
27
Changing direction in floor ball and associated injuries
-180 degree pivot turn (should be performed keeping body weight inside toward direction heading to
Will result in injury if body weight places stress on acl causing knee to cave in
Common in soccer, bbal, floor ball, foot ball and other direction change sport
28

Have greater knee joint structure specific training load than a person with proper knees
38
What are the 3 questions associated with sport specialization

44
Important things to remember about NMT warm up
-backward zigzag (focus on pushing off with knee over the ankle and not allowing knee to fall inward especially when changing direction)
-forward backward skipping (knee over ankle, light landing)
-In all of them proper body alignment especially at knee and hip is critical
-done carefully and mindfully, prioritizing activating proper muscles and proper technique
45
Define sport injury
-tissue damage/derangement of normal physical function due to participation in sports
-generally due to external forces (transfer of kinetic energy)
46
When force applied to tissue is greater than to what the maximal force the tissue can take it results in

47
Sport injury can affect all tissues True or False
True
48
Sport injury may result from a ———-
Clear acute mechanism,clear repetitive mechanism or form a combination of both
49
What are the different modes of onset
1. Acute sudden onset injury (traumatic injury, single definable event
2.repetitive gradual onset injury (overuse injury)
3.repetitive, sudden onset injury (micro damages accumulate and a single event makes it feel like its a sudden onset)
50
Classification of contact
1. Direct contact injury, force applied directly to injured area at the time of injury, through contact with another athlete or contact with an object
2. Indirect contact injury, contact to any other body region example force hits shoulder causing athlete to sprain ankle also through contact with another athlete or object
3. Non contact injury, injury related to athletes poor technique, misalignment, without any contact form another external source at the time of injury
51
Soft tissue injury is affecting what structure
-cartilage injuries , muscle injuries, tendon injuries and ligament injuries
52
Skeletal injuries affect what structure
-bone; involved bone fractures, other bone injuries
53
Acute traumatic injuries involve
-bleeding (hematoma)

64
Stiffness
-ability of a tissue to resist a load (resist deformation, changing shape)
65
Yield point
-indicated the limit of elastic behaviour and the beginning of plastic behaviour , tissue stops behaving normally and starts to get damaged
66
Creep
- deformation in the shape/ properties of a tissue that occurs under the influence of persistent mechanical stresses
67
Elastic region
The stress applied where the tissue stretched but returns to its original shape
68
Plastic region
-passes yield point, resulting in micro-damages to tissue, **cannot return to its original shape**, start of permanent changes
69
Tissue failure
-tissue can no longer withstand stress, breaks or fails (causing an injury)
70
If you only stay in the elastic region it may be hard to gain flexibility True or False explain
True; the tissue doesn’t stretch stretch enough to adapt or become more flexible
71
What are the 4 stages of wound healing
1. Hemostasis
2. Inflammation
3. Proliferation
4.remodelling
72
Hemostasis
-process to **prevent and stop bleeding**, when injury occurs resulting in **formation of a clot**
73
Wound healing results in the
Restoration of tissue integrity
74
Hemostasis also known as stop the
Leak
75
Hemostasis is the process to ——-
Prevent and stop bleeding when injury occurs—> results in formation of a clot
76
Steps in Hemostasis
1. Vascular spasm
2. Formation of platelet plug
3. Blood clotting (coagulation cascade)
4. Formulation of the final clot
Platelets release growth factors
77
Inflammation
Purpose
Key Cells
Mechanisms
Purpose: Prevent infection and clear debris.
Key Cells: Neutrophils (first responders), macrophages, lymphocytes.
Mechanisms: Chemotaxis, phagocytosis, degranulation, and production of reactive oxygen species.
78
Proliferation; processes and key factors
Processes: Angiogenesis, granulation tissue formation, collagen deposition, epithelialization, and wound contraction.
Key Factors: Growth factors like TGF-β, PDGF, VEGF, and cytokines.
79
Tissue Remodeling
Duration: and processes
Duration: Can take up to 2 years.
Processes: Collagen remodeling, scar maturation, and regaining tissue strength (up to 80% of original strength).
80
Factors Affecting Wound Healing
**Nutrition**: Essential nutrients like vitamin A, carbohydrates, and omega-3 fatty acids.
**Hypoxia**: Necessary for re-epithelialization but excessive hypoxia impairs healing.
**Infection**: Prophylactic antibiotics reduce infection risk.
**Immunosuppression**: Conditions like HIV, cancer, and use of steroids delay healing.
**Chronic Diseases**: Diabetes, cardiovascular diseases impair healing.
**Age**: Elderly patients have slower healing due to thinner epidermal layers and chronic diseases.
**Genetics**: Conditions like keloid scars and incisional herniae have genetic components.
**Surgical Technique**: Proper tissue handling, aseptic techniques, and avoiding tension across wounds.
81
Why is understanding wound healing crucial
for reducing morbidity and mortality from wound complications.
82
Inflammation
• Defensive response of tissues to a physical or
chemical injury, or bacterial infection
• Recruitment of cells to destroy debris and
bacteria:
• Neutrophils – for the first 48 hours
• Macrophages – peak around 48–72 hours
• Lymphocytes – appear after 72 hours
• Indicated by redness, warmth, swelling, pain,
and dysfunction
83
What are the steps involved in proliferation
1. Angiogenesis
2. Fibroblast migration
3. Epithelialization
4.wound retraction
84
angiogenesis
Formation of
new blood
vessels
• Restore blood
flow
85
Fibroblast migration
Fibroblasts **produce collagen fibers** and elastin
• Results in **granulation tissue which replaces the clot**
86
epithelialization
Epithelial cells
cover
denuded
epithelial
surface
87
Wound retraction
Contraction of the wound
88
what is the aim in tissue remodelling
Increase tissue strength
89
What are the key components of the remodeling stage
-granulation tissue matures into scar
-form and function of the scar tissue depend on loading during this stage
-the stage may last several months-years has important implications for return to sport
-you can never achieve the same level of tissue strength than before the injury
90
During rehabilitation when bone and soft tissue respond to loading
Remodel accordingly
91
During rehabilitation healing structures need …
To be exposed to progressive loads
92
How long the stages of wound healing take
Hemostasis-minutes to hours
Inflammation-days
Proliferation- weeks
Remodelling-months/years
93
