CORRECT ANSWERS { GRADED A+}
complete fracture - ✔✔a break that extends through the entire bone
dividing it into separate pieces
incomplete fracture - ✔✔Bone breaks only partway across leaving
some portion of the bone intact
greenstick fracture - ✔✔Splinted one one side bending and incomplete
break of a bone; most often seen in children
open or compound fracture - ✔✔bone pierces the skin
Hemoatoma Formation - ✔✔Initial Response: Following a fracture,
blood vessels within the bone and surrounding tissues are disrupted,
leading to bleeding.
, Fibrocartilage callus formation - ✔✔The second stage of bone healing.
(The soft callus phase)is a temporary process that occurs when
fibroblasts and chondroblasts form at the site of a bone fracture to help
the bone heal
callus formation - ✔✔mass of tissue that forms at a fracture site and
connects the broken ends of the bone
Ossification - ✔✔the process by which cartilage is transformed into
bone during fracture healing
Consolidation - ✔✔the phase of bone healing when the newly formed
callus strengthens and converts to normal bone
Signs and symptoms of major complications of fractures - ✔✔Blood
loss
Bones are very vascular, so large amounts of blood can be lost,
especially in fractures of the femur and pelvis. Bleeding can be massive
enough to cause a life-threatening drop in blood pressure.
