surgical repair of torn tendon or muscle

3rd degree strains may require?

greenstick fracture

An incomplete disruption where one side of the bone is bent and the other is fractured; generally seen in children because of the flexibility of their bones

non-displaced fracture

Bone fragments are well approximated within the site of disruption.

fracture

Disruption "break" in the continuity of a bone

depressed fracture

Disruptions in which fragments of bone are forced inward; frequently seen in facial and skull fractures involving blunt trauma

Hx of how injury occurred CT or radiography physical exam

Dx of fracture

compartment syndrome

Excessive pressure in an enclosed compartment of body due to bleeding or edema; orthopedic emergency, blocks and impedes blood flow to the extremity

soft tissue damage

External fixators are frequently used when there is significant ___________ at the fracture site

compression fracture

Fracture caused by excessive force along the axis of cancellous (spongy internal layer of bone) bone leading to the bone collapsing on itself; representative in vertebral compression fractures from falls of significant heights

comminuted fracture

Fracture that has several disruptions producing shattered bone fragments within the fracture site

displaced fracture

Malalignment of bone fragments at the fracture site

skeletal traction

Pins, tongs, screws, and wires are surgically secured to the bone, and weight is then applied to provide realignment

Grade I open fracture

Presence of a puncture wound, minimal injury to the soft tissues, and vasculature remains intact

manual traction

Pulling force applied by the hands of the provider

grade II open fracture

Puncture wound, fragments of broken bone, moderate skin and muscle contusions, and significant wound contamination

Rest the injured extremity up to 72 hours to allow the ligaments or tendon time to heal. Ice applied for no longer than 30 minutes three to five times per day for 24 to 72 hours after injury. This promotes vasoconstriction and decreases bleeding and fluid collection in the injured area Compression ACE wrap to minimize further swelling. Elevate - to minimize dependent swelling

RICE

1st and 2nd degree

RICE treats _____ degree sprains and strains

impacted fracture

Segments of bone are wedged into each other at the fracture line.

grade III open fracture

Severe damage to soft tissues, nerves, muscles, and blood vessels. The open fracture site is considered extremely contaminated and contains numerous comminuted fractures.

Burr holes (surgically created hole in the skull to relieve pressure), craniotomy (bone flap removed for access to brain tissue then replaced), craniectomy (bone flap removed and not replaced)

Skull injury with blunt force: If at risk for or showing signs of elevated pressure within the brain: Operative treatment via ______________ followed by ORIF with plates and screws

strain

Tearing or stretching of muscle or tendon, usually as a result of overextension, overexertion, or overstitching.

incomplete fracture

The disruption occurs through part of the bone cortex; however, there is no displacement of bone fragments.

complete fracture

The disruption spans across the width of the bone, causing bone fragments.

oblique fracture

The fracture line occurs usually at a 45-degree angle across the cortex of the bone.

spiral fracture

The fracture wraps around the shaft of the bone.

Tx of hip fracture

Operative ORIF, fusion, cervical traction, immobilization

Tx of spinal fracture with compromised neurological function or damage to spinal cord

Nonoperative immobilization with a stiff cervical collar, observation

ORIF (open reduction internal fixation) of a fracture

requires a surgical incision that enables the surgeon to accurately visualize the wound and ensure proper realignment. It requires the use of plates, screws, rods, and other hardware to realign the fractured bone segments. Irrigation and debridement might be needed for open fractures that are contaminated with dirt and foreign matter.

casts

rigid immobilization constructed of fiberglass or plaster. They are used on weight-bearing extremities.

hemorrhage from the initial injury, extended compression from casts and splints, burns, venous thrombosis, and excessive exercise.

sources of edema that could cause compartment syndrome

second degree / moderate sprain

first degree/ mild

sprain which demonstrates stretching and/or minimal tearing of ligament fibers. Edema and pain may be evident, but joint function remains intact and patients are able to ambulate with slight discomfort.

inversion and eversion prains

sprains caused by ankle rotation.

hypoxia of tissue

stimulates increased tissue permeability causing more blood and fluid to leak into the already restricted compartmental space

third degree / severe

strain that includes the rupture of the muscle or tendon causing considerable internal bleeding, pain, inflammation, and ecchymosis. Surgical repair may be needed if there is extensive tearing in the muscle or tendon.

first degree / milk

strain which demonstrates minimal inflammation and pain. Symptoms can last for several days, but range of motion remains unaffected.

second degree / moderate

arthroscopic surgery (for 3rd degree sprain)

utilizes small scopes to visualize and repair the injured area. Ligament repairs usually require the placement of a graft from the patient, typically the patellar tendon or hamstring. Donor graft can also be used for surgical ligament repair.
