Q

addition on sides of osseous tissue

A

Appositional growth

25
Growth of intramembranous ossification
- By appositional growth
26
Growth of Endochondral ossification
- By inner expansion
27
a break in a bone
Bone fractures
28
Types of bone fractures
a. Closed (simple) fracture b. Open (compound) fracture
29
break that does not penetrate the skin
Closed (simple) fracture
30
broken bone penetrates through the skin
Open (compound) fracture
31
Common types of fractures
- Comminuted - Compression - Depressed - Impacted - Spiral - Greenstick
32
bone breaks into many fragments - particularly common in the aged (whose bones are more brittle)
Comminuted
33
bone is crushed - common in porous bones
Compression
34
a type of fracture where broken bone portion is pressed inward -typical of a skull fracture
Depressed
35
a type of fracture where broken bone ends are forced into each other - when one attempts to break a fall with outstretched arms
Impacted
36
a type of fracture where ragged break occurs when excessive twisting forces are applied to a bone - common sport fracture
Spiral
37
a type of fracture where bone breaks incompletely, much in the way a green adults - common in children (bones are more flexible)
Greenstick
38
Stages in the healing of bone fracture
1. Hematoma formation 2. Fibrocartilage callus formation 3. Bony callus formation 4. Bone remodeling
39
Effects of Growth hormones in bones
- Hyposecretion - Hypersecretion
40
Hyposecretion/removal of pituitary gland
results in premature cessation of transformation of chondrocytes to bones in epiphysis
41
Hypersecretion
giantism/acromegaly
42
Effects of Parathormone in bones
Overactivity
43
Effects of Thyroxine in bones
- Defiency in young- delayed/incomplete ossification causes softer bones
44
Effects of estrogen in bones
Stimulate osteblastic activity
45
Head shape and delivery methods
- Cesarean operation (Small pelvic measurements) - Natural delivery (Average pelvic) - Instrumental delivery (placing forceps0
46
Methods of delivery is determined thru?
- Diamter of female pelvis - Size of fetal skull
47
'cesarean operation' no molding( different shape of head)
Small pelvic measurements
48
'natural delivery' head is molded during its passage through birth canal
Average pelvic measurements
49
placing forceps on head and pulling
Instrumental delivery
50
Selected diseases and conditions of the skeletal system
- Arthritis - Carpal Tunnel Syndrome - Osteoporosis - Scoliosis - Kyphosis - Lordosis - Herniated Disk
51
Usually affects the joins symmetrically
Arthritis
52
causes tingling and numbness of the thumb, index, and the middle fingers - Due to any condition that causes swelling or a change in position of the tissue within the carpal tunnel
Carpal tunnel syndrome
53
Means porous bones
Osteporosis
54
is an abnormal curvature of the spine. runs in families More girls have severe scolosis
Scoliosis
55
can occur as a result of developmental problems, arthrotos or osteporosis Development of a hump in spine
Kyphosis
56
Curvature in the back bone, giving a "swayback appearance"
Lordosis
57
Soft inner central portion of intervertebral disk protrudes into vertebral canal and exerts pressure on spinal cord
Herniated Disk
58
Operation/treatment for herniated disk
Laminectomy
