Soft tissue injury
This document discusses different types of soft tissue injuries and classifications systems used to categorize them. It describes closed wounds like contusions and hematomas versus open wounds. Classification systems like Gustilo and Tscherne grade soft tissue damage and help determine appropriate treatment and prognosis. The goal is to effectively communicate injury severity and anticipate complications to improve patient outcomes.
Soft Tissue Injuries
This document summarizes treatment for various soft tissue injuries including open and closed wounds, amputations, impaled objects, neck wounds, chest injuries, and burns. It describes assessing the injuries, providing emergency care such as controlling bleeding and preventing infection, dressing wounds, and guidelines for transporting patients.
Contusions, strains and sprains
Contusions, strains, and sprains are soft tissue injuries caused by blunt force, overuse, or twisting motions. Contusions involve bleeding into the injured tissue from ruptured blood vessels. Strains are microscopic muscle tears, while sprains damage ligaments around a joint. Symptoms include pain, swelling, bruising, and limited range of motion. Treatment focuses on RICE - rest, ice, compression, and elevation to reduce swelling along with analgesics and immobilization if severe. Patients are educated on proper care, gradual return to activity, and avoiding reinjury.
Fracture
A fracture is a break or disruption in the continuity of bone caused by trauma or disease. Fractures are classified based on type, communication with the external environment, and anatomic location. Treatment involves emergency care like splinting, definitive care like closed or open reduction and immobilization with casting or internal fixation, and rehabilitation. Complications can be systemic like shock or local like injury to surrounding tissues or joints. Proper management of fractures aims to restore function and alignment of the injured bone.
Sprains & strains
Sprains and strains are musculoskeletal disorders caused by excessive exertion on muscles, tendons or ligaments. They are commonly caused by activities like lifting, pushing, carrying, repetitive tasks or awkward postures. A sprain specifically involves a stretched or torn ligament while a strain is an overstretched muscle or tendon. Treatment involves RICE therapy - rest, ice, compression and elevation of the injured area. Prevention strategies include warming up, stretching, wearing proper footwear and exercising caution.

This document provides information about common soft tissue injuries including fractures, dislocations, bruising, sprains, and strains. It describes the signs and symptoms of each injury and outlines the steps to assist a casualty, including controlling bleeding, immobilizing injuries, treating for shock, and seeking medical help when appropriate. For fractures, dislocations, and suspected fractures, first aiders should avoid moving the injured area and call an ambulance. For bruising, sprains, and strains, first aid involves resting, applying ice, compressing the area, and elevating it above the heart.
FRACTURE CHAPTER 4 PRESENTATION
Fractures are breaks in bones that can occur due to trauma, osteoporosis, or brittle bone disease. There are many types of fractures including comminuted, greenstick, and transverse fractures. Comminuted fractures involve shattered or splintered bones. Greenstick fractures involve an incomplete break where one side is broken and the other is bent. Transverse fractures are complete breaks that go straight across the bone at a right angle. Treatment depends on the severity but may include immobilization, splinting, casting, or surgery. Fractures are very common orthopedic injuries that affect millions of Americans each year.
Open fracture
An open fracture occurs when a broken bone pierces the skin, exposing the fracture site. Left untreated, open fractures can lead to high rates of infection, wound complications, and failure of the bone to heal properly. Gustilo-Anderson classification grades open fractures based on wound size, soft tissue damage, level of contamination, and fracture pattern, with higher grades indicating more severe injuries associated with worse outcomes. Proper management of open fractures involves emergency wound care, antibiotics, splinting or stabilization of the fracture, and often surgical debridement and irrigation to reduce the risk of infection.
Fractures & dislocations general principles
This document provides an overview of fractures and dislocations, including:
- A fracture is a break in the continuity of a bone, while a dislocation is the complete displacement of articular surfaces from one another.
- Fractures can be classified based on etiology (traumatic, pathological, stress), displacement, relationship to external environment (closed, open), complexity of treatment (simple, complex), and pattern (transverse, oblique, etc.).
- Pathological fractures occur through weakened bone from underlying disease. Treatment involves addressing the underlying cause and stabilizing the fracture.
- Dislocations can cause immediate complications like neurovascular injury or long-term issues like recurrence, stiffness and arthritis.
Management of open fractures final
Open fractures involve a break in the bone that communicates with the external environment through a break in the skin and soft tissue. They are often caused by high-energy trauma like traffic accidents or falls. The initial management involves thorough debridement to remove all non-viable tissue, irrigation to clean the wound, fracture stabilization, and antibiotic treatment. Further debridement may be needed over subsequent days to fully clean the wound. The goal is to prevent infection while stabilizing the fracture and achieving soft tissue coverage. Outcomes depend on adequate initial management and reconstruction as needed.

This document provides an overview of wound management. It discusses wound classification, the wound healing process, factors affecting wound healing, wound assessment, types of wound drainage, complications of wound healing, and various wound dressing techniques. The three main phases of wound healing are the inflammatory phase, proliferative phase, and maturation phase. Wound classification includes factors like the mechanism of injury, degree of contamination, and wound depth. Proper wound management requires assessing these classifications and factors to determine the appropriate treatment approach.Classification of wounds
This document defines and classifies different types of wounds. It discusses that wounds involve a loss of skin or mucous membrane continuity and may also involve underlying tissues. Wounds are classified as either tidy or untidy, and acute or chronic. Tidy wounds are clean cuts while untidy wounds contain devitalized tissue. Examples of different wound types are provided such as incisions, lacerations, abrasions, puncture wounds, and crush injuries. Chronic wounds like pressure sores and ulcers are also described as having prolonged inflammation and sloughing of necrotic tissue. Key reference sources are listed.
Orthopedics
The document provides an overview of common orthopedic injuries and fractures, including:
1. The 5 main types of fractures are comminuted, stress, compression, pathologic, and open fractures.
2. Common injuries include shoulder dislocations, hip fractures, knee ligament tears, and wrist issues like carpal tunnel syndrome.
3. Treatment depends on the severity of the injury, with closed reduction for mild fractures and open reduction plus internal fixation for displaced or severe fractures.
1 2 fracture-classification & management
This document discusses fracture classification and treatment. It describes different fracture types including transverse, oblique, spiral, and comminuted fractures. It also discusses displaced versus undisplaced fractures. The document outlines principles of fracture treatment including restoration of anatomy, immobilization methods like casting or traction, and considerations for open versus closed reduction and internal versus external fixation. Surgical treatment is preferred when closed methods can't maintain reduction or for unstable, intra-articular, or complex fractures. The goal of any treatment is union with maximum functional recovery while minimizing complications and respecting soft tissues.
Fracture (1)
This seminar discusses fractures, including their definition, causes, classification, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, complications, and medical and nursing management. Fractures are breaks in bone continuity and can be caused by direct blows, twisting motions, or muscle contractions. They are classified based on their relationship to the environment (closed vs open), degree of displacement, fracture pattern (transverse, oblique, etc.), and etiology (traumatic vs pathological). Treatment involves reduction, immobilization using devices like casts, splints, or traction, and restoring function through exercises. Nursing care focuses on pain management, preventing complications like infection or neurovascular issues, and promoting mobility and independence.
Musculoskeletal trauma lecture
This document provides an overview of musculoskeletal trauma, including fractures, dislocations, and soft tissue injuries. It describes the pathophysiology, manifestations, assessment, diagnosis and management of fractures. Fractures occur when there is a disruption in normal bone continuity and involve surrounding structures. They are caused by mechanical overload that provides a force greater than the bone can absorb. The document outlines the stages of fracture healing and complications to monitor for, such as compartment syndrome. It also reviews the reduction and stabilization techniques of closed manipulation, open reduction internal fixation, external fixation and traction. Dislocations and soft tissue injuries like strains and sprains are also summarized.
Wounds and bleeding
This document discusses different types of wounds, including their classification, characteristics, and management. It describes closed wounds that occur with blunt trauma, like contusions, and open wounds from penetrating trauma, like abrasions, lacerations, incisions, punctures, and gunshot wounds. It outlines dangers of wounds like bleeding and infection. First aid aims to stop bleeding and minimize germ entry. Bleeding can be external or internal, and types include arterial, venous, and capillary. Direct pressure, elevation, pressure points, and tourniquets can control bleeding. Internal bleeding signs include pain and tenderness over injured areas and signs of shock. Management involves controlling external bleeding, positioning, and promptly transporting to the hospital
Immobilization splints
Immobilization splints are rigid supports used to immobilize injured body parts like fractures or soft tissue injuries. They are different than casts in that they do not fully encircle the injured area. The main goals of splinting are to reduce inflammation from trauma or arthritis, control pain, and provide external support. Splints are initially used to rest injured tissues and encourage healing after trauma. They can also provide relief for inflammatory arthritis conditions. Splints allow for swelling and are easier to apply and remove than casts. Potential complications include infection, joint stiffness, and skin breakdown. Splints are indicated for fractures, soft tissue injuries, arthritis, and lacerations, but are contraindicated for conditions requiring surgery or with high infection
Bedsores (pressure ulcers)
Bedsores, also known as pressure ulcers or decubitus ulcers, are injuries to the skin and underlying tissue caused by prolonged pressure on certain areas of the body. They are most common on bony areas like the tailbone, heels, ankles, hips and shoulders. Prolonged pressure cuts off blood flow, while friction and shear from sliding also contribute to bedsore development. Those at highest risk have limited mobility from medical conditions. Prevention focuses on frequent repositioning, managing moisture, optimizing nutrition and hydration, using pressure-relieving surfaces, and seeking early treatment if changes in skin are noticed.

Dislocation
Dislocation occurs when a joint is displaced and the supporting ligaments and joint capsule are disrupted. There are different types including congenital, acquired, traumatic, and pathological dislocations. The most common joints that dislocate are the shoulder, hip, elbow, fingers, and cervical facet joints. Investigations include x-rays from different angles and sometimes CT scans. Management involves reducing acute dislocations promptly through closed reduction under anesthesia if possible to avoid complications like nerve damage, recurrent dislocations, and arthritis. Different techniques are used for reducing specific joints like the shoulder, hip, and fingers. Immobilization after reduction helps prevent recurrence.
Wound Debridement
Debridement is an important component of the wound bed preparation (WBP) management Model.
Cause of the wound and patient-centered concerns, debridement is a necessary step in local wound care.
Debridement is the removal of necrotic tissue, exudate, bacteria, and metabolic waste from a wound in order to improve or facilitate the healing process
Fracture classification
This document discusses fracture classification systems. It begins by defining a fracture and explaining why fractures are classified. Some common classification bases are described, including etiology, environment, morphology, site, and displacement. Specific classification systems are then outlined, such as the ICRC system for war wounds, AO system, Gustilo-Anderson for open fractures, and others for pediatric, pelvic, acetabular, femoral neck, tibial plateau, ankle, and spinal fractures. The conclusion emphasizes how classification helps standardize communication, guide treatment, and predict outcomes.
Fractures
A fracture is a break in a bone. There are several types of fractures named after the pattern of damage to the bone. A compound or open fracture is when the broken bone pierces the skin. It typically requires surgery and takes longer to heal due to damage to both the bone and surrounding soft tissues. A greenstick fracture occurs when one side of the bone breaks while the other side bends. It is more common in children and can be difficult to diagnose on X-rays. A comminuted fracture involves splintering of the bone, usually from high force, and is easy to identify on X-rays.
Presentation4 musculoskeletal fractures
This document discusses four types of fractures: simple, compound, greenstick, and spiral. A simple fracture causes little damage to soft tissue and does not break the skin. A compound fracture is when the broken bone penetrates the skin, requiring immediate treatment. A greenstick fracture occurs in children where the bone bends but does not completely break. A spiral fracture is caused by twisting and results in a helical break of the bone.

A compound fracture is when the broken bone penetrates the skin, requiring immediate treatment. A greenstick fracture occurs in children where the bone bends but does not completely break. A spiral fracture is caused by twisting and results in a helical break of the bone.
Fracture presentation
The document discusses three types of fractures: closed/simple fractures which involve a break in the bone without breaking the skin, greenstick fractures which involve an incomplete break where one side of the bone is broken and the other bent, and open fractures where the skin is broken through to the fracture site. Closed fractures are typically caused by osteoporosis, stress, or trauma and diagnosed via physical exam and x-rays. Greenstick fractures commonly occur in children from falls and are sometimes difficult to see on x-rays. Open fractures require immediate surgery to clean the wound and prevent infection since the break in skin allows bacteria access to the bone.
Bio fracture
There are several types of bone fractures described in the document. A compound fracture breaks the skin, exposing the broken bone. A simple fracture breaks the bone but does not break the skin. An impacted fracture drives bone fragments into each other, making it challenging to set the fracture. Bone fractures can result from falls or collisions and vary in severity depending on whether the broken bone penetrates the skin.
Fractures
Greenstick fractures are incomplete fractures where the bone cracks but does not completely break. They are more common in children due to their softer, more flexible bones. Symptoms can be minor like swelling or pain. An x-ray is needed for diagnosis. Treatment involves immobilizing the bone with a cast to allow it to heal.
Compound fractures penetrate the skin, creating an open wound. They require immediate medical attention due to a higher risk of infection. Surgery is often needed to clean and stabilize the broken bones.
Simple fractures involve a clean break where the bone splits but the skin remains intact. While less severe than compound fractures, treatment still involves setting the bone in proper alignment and casting it to heal.
Chapter 4 Presentation
Greenstick fractures occur most often in children and involve a partial break in soft bone that causes it to bend. Signs include swelling, bruising, and pain at the injury site. Treatment depends on the type of greenstick fracture but often involves splinting or casting. Comminuted fractures involve multiple bone fragments, making them complex to treat, often requiring surgery to pin the pieces. Compound fractures break the skin, exposing the bone to risk of infection, so treatment requires surgery to clean and stabilize the fracture.
Fractures
A fracture is a broken bone that occurs when physical force exceeds the strength of the bone. There are many types of fractures including open or closed, comminuted, greenstick, stress, spiral, and more. Treatment depends on the severity and location, with common options being casts, splints, braces, or surgery to internally fix the bone using plates, screws, rods or wires. Fractures are common injuries that increase in risk with age due to bone density loss.
Fractures
Fractures occur when a bone cannot withstand physical force exerted on it. There are three main types of fractures: stress fractures which are hairline breaks often invisible on x-rays; compound fractures where the bone protrudes through the skin; and greenstick fractures where the bone cracks but does not break all the way through. Stress fractures are caused by overuse while compound fractures often result from high-energy injuries. Treatment depends on the type of fracture but generally involves rest, braces, immobilization and sometimes surgery to repair the bone and prevent infection in compound fractures.
Presentation 4
This document discusses different types of fractures of the musculoskeletal system. It defines a fracture as a broken bone and describes several specific types: greenstick (incomplete break with one side bent), compound (break of both bone and skin), and Colles' fracture (break of the larger forearm bone near the wrist). It provides examples of causes for different fractures and notes important clinical features such as the need for surgery in open or compound fractures.
Fractures
A fracture is a break in a bone caused by physical force exceeding the bone's strength. Fractures are common, with the average person experiencing two in their lifetime. They can result from high impact trauma or trivial injury if a medical condition weakens the bones. There are three main types: simple fractures where the skin is intact; compound fractures where the skin is broken, risking infection; and transverse fractures which occur at a right angle to the bone, often from sharp blows or stress. Symptoms include pain, swelling, bruising, deformity, limited movement, and numbness near the injury.

A fracture is a break in a bone caused by physical force exceeding the bone's strength. Fractures are common, with the average person experiencing two in their lifetime. They can result from high impact trauma or trivial injury if a medical condition weakens the bones. There are three main types: simple fractures where the skin is intact; compound fractures where the skin is broken, risking infection; and transverse fractures which occur at right angles to the bone's axis, often from sharp blows or stress. Symptoms include pain, swelling, bruising, limited movement, and numbness near the injury.

They can result from high impact trauma or trivial injury if a medical condition weakens the bones. There are three main types: simple fractures where the skin is intact; compound fractures where the skin is broken, risking infection; and transverse fractures which occur at right angles to the bone's axis, often from sharp blows or stress. Symptoms include pain, swelling, bruising, impaired movement and sensation in the injured area.
Fractures
A fracture is a break in the bone caused by trauma. There are several types of fractures including compound (open) fractures where the bone breaks through the skin, greenstick fractures where one side of the bone breaks and the other side bends, and stress fractures caused by repetitive low impacts rather than a single forceful impact. Compound fractures are serious due to risk of infection, while greenstick fractures commonly occur in children's softer bones and stress fractures typically affect the feet of athletes. Treatment depends on the fracture type but generally involves rest, casting, or surgery to stabilize and heal the broken bone.
Comminuted, Simple, and Compound Fractures
There are three main types of fractures: comminuted, simple, and compound. A comminuted fracture occurs when the bone is shattered into more than two pieces due to crushing force, often affecting elderly people or those with weak bones. Simple fractures break the bone into two pieces without breaking the skin. Compound fractures break both the bone and skin, requiring immediate surgery to reduce infection risks and immobilization of the bone. All fractures cause pain, swelling, and warmth at the injury site and are diagnosed via x-ray. Treatment focuses on immobilizing the bone through casting, pinning, or plating.
SP14 BIO120 CH4 Fractures
This document defines and describes different types of bone fractures. It begins by defining a fracture as a complete or partial break in the bone from excessive force. Fractures are usually caused by traumatic injury and can be classified as simple, compound, incomplete or complete. It then describes three specific types of fractures: comminuted fractures involve the bone breaking into three or more pieces; greenstick fractures occur when the bone bends and cracks instead of breaking completely; and impacted fractures happen when broken bone fragments are driven into other fragments.
Fractures
A fracture is a partially or completely broken bone. Fractures are common and occur when a bone cannot withstand physical force. There are different types of fractures including greenstick, simple, and compound. Fractures can be caused by direct force, abnormal muscle contraction, indirect force, or a diseased bone. Signs of a fracture include exposed or deformed bone, swelling, and redness. Symptoms include pain, bruising, swelling, deformity, inability to use the injured area, numbness. First aid management includes preventing movement, calling for assistance, immobilizing the injured area, and splinting if needed until medical help arrives.
Bone Fractures
This document summarizes different types of bone fractures. It describes green stick fractures as partial fractures that occur in soft, young bones from bending. Transverse fractures occur when the bone breaks completely across from a direct impact. Compound fractures involve the bone breaking through the skin from high-impact injuries. The document outlines treatments like casting, surgery to repair breaks, and use of pins or plates. Healing times vary from 3-4 weeks for children's green stick fractures to several months for adult transverse fractures, or longer for more severe compound fractures.
Fractures
A fracture is a broken bone. There are different types of fractures depending on factors like the energy of the event and the strength of the bone. Key types include greenstick fractures, where one side of the bone is bent instead of completely broken; comminuted fractures, where the bone is shattered into many fragments; and compound fractures, where the broken bone pierces the skin. Compound fractures require immediate surgery to clean the wound and realign the bone to prevent infection, and they generally take longer to heal than other types of fractures.

Fracture ppt
- 1. Tristana Cardona Bio 120 02/05/2012
- 2. Fracture: A simple definition of the word fracture is a broken bone. It is usually diagnosed in the ER with the use of X-ray. A good therapeutic way of healing a fracture ( if no surgery is required) is immobilizing via a cast or brace. Fractures can be the result of various accidents such a sports injury, accident, falling on it….
- 3. Fractures vary in their degree of severity and pain intensity. They also differ in healing time In the next few slides we will discuss and define the differences between a simple fracture, a greenstick fracture, an impact fracture and a compounded fracture. Remember…they are all painful!
- 4. Simple fracture is also known as closed fracture This fracture has no open skin wound ( as opposed to an open or compound fracture) The use of cast for immobilization is required Simple fracture have no open skin Simple fracture wound
- 5. This fracture has an incomplete break: one side of the bone is broken and the other side is bent. Usually found in children because they have softer skin and more pliable bone structure Common in children Incomplete break
- 6. A fracture where the bone fragments are pushed into each other Impact fracture
- 7. Compounded fracture is also known as the open fracture The skin is broken through from the fracture Usually requires surgery Surgical treatment Bone comes out through skin
