patho final Flashcards
what is immediate response to MSK injury
generalized inflammation
vascular, chemical and cellular events that prepare for repair
what is preclinical disability? how would it present?
progressive and detectable but unrecognizable decline in physical function
increased time to complete a task / decrease in frequency in which a task is performed
what causes fibrinogen clots
vasoconstriction
what is margination
when WBCs move to the periphery of the vessel
what is diapedesis
allowance of WBC to squeeze through the blood vessel wall
what is chemotaxis
WBC being guided to the site of injury beyond the blood vessel walls
what is the inflammatory response in steps
fibrinogen clots
margination
diapedesis
chemotaxis
phagocytosis
what is sarcopenia
age related loss in muscle mass, strength and endurance
how to treat sarcopenia
high resistance training exercise
functional measures or specific weights rather than MMT
what can lead to decreased flexibility in aging populations
a build up of fibrinogen/collagen in joints due to lack of motion
what cells provide proprioception
mechanoreceptors
strength training in older adults
program of 1-2x weekly
improved neuromuscular performance
ACSM recommendation for strength training in aging pop
up to 15 reps performed a minimum of twice per week
generally = 2-3 sets of 8-12 reps for 8-10 major muscle groups
ACSM recommendation for cardiovascular health in aging pop
> 85+ = 2x/week with intensity of 40-60% of HRR for more than 20 min
what chemicals make up bone
calcium and phosphate
- mixed with water forming hydroxyapatite
% of bone composition
20% - trabecular
80% - cortical
what is the % comp of cortical bone and trabecular bone is calcified
80-90 = cortical
15-25 = trabecular
what does BMD represent
mineral content of bone in grams/square cm
what % of bone loss on an x-ray is significant
30% must occur before the abnormalities can be seen
what standard dev are associated with osteoperosis or penia
perosis - >2.5 SD below normal peak bone mass
penia - 1-2.5 SD
modifiable risk factors for osteoperosis
calcium intake
smoking / drinking
low body weight (<127)
exercise
caffeine / soda
what medications can cause osteoperosis
corticosteroids
loop diuretic
immunosuppressants
anticonvulsants
what diseases are associated with osteoperosis
hyperparathyroidism
cushings disease
anorexia nervosa
female athlete triat
hyperthyroidism
injuries related to osteoperosis
hip / spine fractures
radius / femur
ribs
vertebral bodies
