25
What are the three grades of strains
Grade 1-pull/stretch Grade 2- partial tear Grade 3- avulsion (complete tear)
26
What is a ligament sprain
Stretching or tearing ligaments
27
Define dislocation
Where the bone is forced out of normal position in the joint
28
What are the types of dislocations
Normal, anterior – dislocates forward, posterior – dislocates backwards
29
What is acromioclavicular dislocation
Where the clavicle pops up from the ligaments tearing completely
30
What is subluxation
An incomplete or partial dislocation
31
What is luxation
A complete separation of joints
32
Define fractures
Disruptions to the bone
33
What causes stress fractures
Overuse [microtears/brakes]
34
define Myositis
Inflamation of connective tissue
35
Define Myosotis ossification
Bone tissue forms in a muscle
36
Define tendonitis
Tendon inflammation
37
Define tendinosis
Tendon degeneration
38
Define tenosynovitis
Inflammation of a tendon sheath
39
What is bursitis
Inflammation of a bursa [typically found between tendons and bones]
40
What is soft tissue
Non-bony tissue
41
What are a muscles properties
Parallel, vascular
42
What are a ligaments properties
Wavy, avascular
43
What are the three forces acting on the body
Compression – ask your loads along and access tension – stretching and pulling along and access shearing – oppositely directly loads that are parallel
44
Define necrosis
02 Deprivation resulting in cell death
45
What are the injuries to the skin
Abrasions – dermis exposed Incisions – sharp cut [clean] Laceration – irregular tear [Jagged] Avulsion - tearing off of skin or other body part Puncture – may be deep Blisters
46
What is a primary injury
Bleeding, damaged tissue
47
What is a secondary injury
Any damage occurring to the primary injury
48
What are the three response phases Of soft tissue response
Acute vascular response Repair and regeneration – collagen Remodelling and maturation
49
Define vasodilation
Blood vessels open wider to allow greater blood flow
50
Define vasoconstriction
Blood vessels constrict to lessen blood flow
51
Define hypertrophy
Muscle fibres increase in size
52
Define atrophy
Muscle fibres reducing in size
53
Define necrosis
Cell death When no 02
54
What are some signs and symptoms of inflammation
Redness, swelling, heat, pain, loss of function
55
What is shock
Shock is a collapse of the cardiovascular system when insufficient blood cannot provide circulation for the entire body
56
What are the types of shock
Hypovolemic shock Cardiogenic shock Anaphylactic shock Septic shock Neurogenic shock Obstructive shock
57
What is hypovolemic shock
Too little blood volume
58
What is cardiogenic shock
Heart problems
59
What is anaphylactic shock
Severe allergic reaction
60
What is septic shock
Caused by infection
61
What is neurogenic shock
Damage to the nervous system
62
What is obstructive shock
Embolism, pneumothorax
63
What are signs and symptoms of shock
Pulse-rapid, weak Skin – cool, clammy, pale Breathing – Rapid, shallow Sweating – profusely Pupils – dilated, dull eyes B.P. - steadily failing Unconsciousness Nausea
64
Define concussion
A concussion is a (traumatic) injury  To the brain, when these occur in sports they could possibly be career ending
65
What type of injury is a concussion
A functional injury
66
How does one get a concussion
There is a quick acceleration and the acceleration of the brain which causes neurons to become stretched
67
Can you screen a concussion
No, concussions do not show up on any neuroimaging
68
How long does it take to make a full recovery from a concussion
Approximately 22 to 30 days
69
 What is WAD
Whiplash associated disorder
70
What are some symptoms of concussions
Dizziness, neck pain, light and sound sensitivity, trouble sleeping, balance issues, slowed reaction times
71
What should I do if my player has a concussion
Do not give them any medication, remove their gear, and sit them in the shade
72
What is the number one thing you should not do with a concussion diagnosed athlete
Do not leave the athlete alone
73
When can a concussion diagnosed athlete sleep
Anytime after three hours Of the concussion taking place
74
What is PCS
Post – concussion syndrome This is known as the lingering symptoms and individual may have after four weeks of injury
75
What does ASIS stand for
Anterior superior iliac spine
76
What is avulsion
A complete tear
77
Another name for a bruise
Contusion
78
Define acute vascular response
Blood vessels around the injured area dilate increasing blood flow and inflammation occurs
79
What happens in the remodelling and maturation stage
Water content reduces, The collagen from repair and regeneration is slowly replaced by a more stable (collagen) material
