There are several types of bone fractures described in the document. A transverse fracture occurs when the bone breaks straight across at a right angle. A comminuted fracture is when the bone shatters into many small pieces. A greenstick fracture is an incomplete break where one side of the bone is broken and the other side is bent. Fractures can be simple, involving just a bone break, or compound, involving a break in both the bone and skin. Treatment typically involves x-rays to determine the type of fracture, realigning the broken bones, and immobilizing the area with casting while it heals.

Fracture - Types, Complications & Management
All about fracture like it types, complications and it's management. specially prepared for nursing students.
Types of Fractures
This document defines and classifies different types of bone fractures. It discusses the causes of fractures as high force impact or medical conditions like osteoporosis. Fractures are classified based on soft tissue involvement (closed vs open), displacement (displaced vs non-displaced), fracture pattern (linear, transverse, oblique, etc.), and number of bone fragments (incomplete, complete, comminuted). Common examples are provided for each fracture type.

This document discusses fractures and dislocations, including:
- Signs and symptoms of fractures like pain, deformity, and loss of function
- Types of fractures such as complete, incomplete, open, comminuted, spiral, and stress fractures
- Emergency care for fractures including splinting, immobilization, and controlling bleeding
- Diagnosis using x-rays, CT scans, or MRIs to identify fracture type and location
- Treatment options like casting, internal fixation surgery, traction, and exercise
- Factors that can delay or prevent fracture healing like infection, movement, and poor blood supply
- The role of the radiographer in obtaining quality images to aid in diagnosis and monitoring healing
Traction(orthopedics)
Orthopaedic traction involves applying pulling forces to parts of the body and has been used for over 100 years to treat fractures. There are several types of traction including skin traction, which applies force over a large area of skin, and skeletal traction, which applies force directly to bones using pins or wires. Traction aims to regain normal bone length and alignment, reduce fractures, and relieve pain or pressure. While it remains useful for some applications, many traction procedures have been replaced by more modern techniques.
First aid management of Wound
This document discusses first aid management of wounds. It defines a wound and describes different types such as incisions, lacerations, abrasions, punctures, and closed wounds. The principles of wound care include controlling bleeding through cleaning, applying direct pressure, and dressing. It also discusses preventing wound infection. For minor wounds, the first aid involves washing hands, cleaning and drying the wound, and applying a sterile dressing. For major wounds, medical help should be called and continuous pressure applied until bleeding stops.

fracture introduction, aetiology, complete and incomplete fractures, traumatic and pathologic fractures, simple and compound fractures, patterns of fractures and types of displacement
Head Injuries & Concussion
Head injuries can range from minor cuts to serious conditions like concussions, contusions, hemorrhages or compression of the brain. Concussions involve temporary impairment of brain functions like thinking or vision from a blow to the head. Contusions cause bruising of the brain tissue which can lead to prolonged unconsciousness. Hemorrhages refer to bleeding within the skull from damaged blood vessels. Signs of a serious head injury include deep cuts, nausea, visual issues or unconsciousness. First aid involves protecting the airway, controlling bleeding from cuts and seeking immediate medical help.
Bites And Stings
Bites and stings from various creatures can cause medical issues ranging from minor to severe, depending on factors like the type of creature and amount of venom injected. Different creatures' venoms spread through the body in different ways, and signs and symptoms as well as recommended first aid procedures vary. However, in general prevention is key and the primary goals of first aid are to restrict further venom spread, reduce pain, and seek urgent medical help if needed.

Splinting and immobilization techniques are described for various body parts like the shoulder, arm, leg, ankle and pelvis.
Fracture
A fracture is a break in the continuity of bone that can be caused by direct blows, crushing forces, twisting motions or muscle contractions. There are two main types - complete fractures where the bone is broken across its entire cross-section, and incomplete fractures where the break is only partial. Fractures can be open (compound) if the bone protrudes through skin, or closed (simple) without skin breakage. Clinical signs include pain, deformity, swelling and loss of function. Treatment involves reduction, immobilization using casts, splints or traction, and restoring mobility while the bone heals. Complications can include nonunion, infection and compartment syndrome.

Fracture - Types, complications and management
The document discusses fractures, including defining fractures and related terms. It describes the typical causes and symptoms of fractures and classifies fractures according to type, including transverse, oblique, spiral, and stress fractures. The management of fractures is outlined, focusing on initial first aid, transport, assessment, reduction, immobilization, and rehabilitation. Factors that influence fracture healing and potential complications are also reviewed. The terms dislocation and subluxation are defined as the displacement of bones in a joint.
Chapter 14 Bone, Joint, and Muscle Injuries
Bone, joint, and muscle injuries are common. There are several types of bone fractures including closed (intact skin) and open (broken skin). Joint injuries include dislocations where the bone ends are no longer in contact. Muscle injuries include strains from overstretching and contusions from blows. For all injuries, circulation, sensation, and movement should be checked. RICE procedures (rest, ice, compression, and elevation) and splinting injured areas can help reduce pain and swelling while seeking medical care.
Asphyxia
This document defines and describes asphyxia, which is a condition where the lungs do not receive sufficient oxygen. It can be caused by choking, drowning, toxic gas inhalation, or injuries that prevent breathing. Asphyxia is classified as physical or chemical. Physical asphyxia includes choking, suffocation, strangulation, and drug overdoses. Chemical asphyxia involves gases like carbon monoxide, cyanide, and hydrogen sulfide. Signs of asphyxia occur in two phases, initially increasing breathing rate and later losing consciousness. Treatment involves removing the cause, clearing the airway, giving artificial respiration, and immediate medical help. The Heimlich maneuver and CPR may be used to dislo
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.

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.
Splint and tractions
This document discusses different types of splints and traction used for immobilizing fractures. It describes ladder splints, Thomas splints, and Bohler's modification of the Braun splint. Thomas splints consist of a ring, medial bar, and lateral bar and are used to immobilize the lower limb. Bohler's modification uses pulleys to allow changing the angle of traction without adjusting the traction arrangement. The document also covers skin traction versus skeletal traction, application sites for each, and risks associated with traction use.
Fracture
A fracture is a disruption or discontinuity in bone. Fractures can be classified based on type, communication with the external environment, and anatomic location. Common types include avulsion fractures caused by pulling of tendons/ligaments, comminuted fractures with multiple fragments, displaced fractures with overriding fragments, and greenstick fractures with incomplete bending of one bone side. Clinical manifestations include pain, tenderness, decreased function, swelling, deformity, and loss of function. Fracture healing involves hematoma formation, granulation tissue growth, callus formation, ossification, consolidation, and remodeling. Diagnostic evaluation includes history, physical exam, x-rays, CT scans, and MRIs. Treatment involves closed or open
BURNS
Burns are wounds caused by heat, chemicals, electricity or radiation that damage the skin. They are classified based on depth and percentage of total body surface area affected. First degree burns involve only the outer layer of skin while deeper burns affect underlying tissues. Symptoms depend on depth but may include pain, blistering, and loss of sensation. Systemic effects can include increased metabolic demands and risk of infection. Treatment involves cooling the burn, fluid resuscitation, wound care, antibiotics and surgery. Complications may include scarring, contractures and infections if not properly managed.
CRUTCH WALKING
This document defines crutches and describes different types of crutch gaits and crutches. It discusses the purpose of walking aids, prerequisites for crutch use, and measurements for proper crutch fitting. Types of crutches described include axillary/underarm crutches, elbow/Lofstrand crutches, and forearm support crutches. Instructions are provided for different weight bearing statuses and ambulation techniques like stairs. Precautions and patient education topics are also outlined.
Bone Fracture Types by Nadia Abdulallah
A fracture is a broken bone that occurs when physical force exceeds the strength of the bone. Fractures are common and their risk depends on age. Greenstick fractures are partial breaks in young, soft bones caused by bending forces from falls or blows. They are treated by reducing the fracture and immobilizing the bone in a cast. Transverse fractures completely break the bone straight across from direct impacts, and require closed or open reduction and casting to heal properly. Simple or closed fractures involve a single break where the skin is intact, and are treated by aligning the bone and casting.

The document also discusses several common fracture classification systems including AO classification and Salter-Harris classification of pediatric fractures. It concludes by defining types of fractures such as oblique, comminuted, spiral, compound, and greenstick fractures.
Common Types Of Fracture
The document discusses four common types of bone fractures:
1. Comminuted fractures involve multiple bone fragments and can be challenging to treat.
2. Spiral fractures result from twisting forces and may require surgery or months in a cast.
3. Greenstick fractures are most common in children and cause partial bone breaks like bending a green twig.
4. Proper diagnosis and immobilization are needed for fractures to heal completely.
Types Of Fractures
This document discusses different types of fractures including compression fractures of the vertebrae, Colles' fractures of the radius, and greenstick fractures. Compression fractures are caused by osteoporosis or trauma and can lead to a hunched posture, while Colles' fractures typically result from falls and cause wrist pain and deformity. Greenstick fractures may be difficult to diagnose since they don't displace the bone and cause minimal symptoms, but still require immobilization to heal properly.
Bone fracture
A bone fracture occurs when excessive force causes a bone to break or shatter. There are three main types of fractures: comminuted fractures where the bone breaks into multiple pieces; greenstick fractures where the bone incompletely breaks on one side; and spiral fractures which occur from twisting forces. Treatment involves realigning the broken bone ends through either closed or open reduction, then immobilizing the bone with a cast or traction to allow it to heal.
Fractures, bone healing & principles of tx. of fractures
This document discusses fractures and bone healing. It begins by providing statistics on common fractures, noting that fractures of the extremities are most common and the rates differ between age groups and sexes. It then describes different types of fractures based on the force and displacement. The document outlines the process of bone healing in four stages. It also discusses evaluating and treating fractures, including determining if reduction is needed, how to hold the reduction through various fixation methods, and indicators that a fracture has fully healed. Complications of fractures are noted. The goal is to restore optimal function while preventing issues and allowing early rehabilitation.
Fractures.ppt by bernita
There are several types of bone fractures, including comminuted, compound, and greenstick fractures. A fracture occurs when a bone can no longer withstand pressure and breaks. Fractures are more common in adults than children because children's bones are more flexible. Symptoms of fractures include swelling, bruising, deformity, and loss of use of the affected area. A comminuted fracture is when the bone is crushed or shattered. A compound fracture breaks the skin. A greenstick fracture occurs when the bone bends instead of completely breaking, which is common in children. Ensuring proper healing involves realigning the bone with a cast or splint, sometimes requiring surgery, along with pain medication and rehabilitation.
Bone Fractures
A bone fracture occurs when a force exceeds a bone's strength, causing it to break. The most common fracture sites are the wrist, ankle, and hip. Children, the elderly, and women with osteoporosis are at highest risk. There are several types of fractures, including greenstick (incomplete break on one side), oblique (at an angle), spiral (twisted break), and impacted (many small fragments driven into each other). Bone fractures heal through stages including hematoma formation, fibrocartilaginous callus growth, bony callus formation, and remodeling over several months.
3 bone fractures
Fractures occur when external forces cause the bone to break. Common causes include falls, impacts from objects, or twisting of the bone. There are different types of fractures such as greenstick, spiral, and compound fractures. Greenstick fractures involve a partial break of soft bone like a young branch. Spiral fractures occur when the bone twists, leaving a corkscrew shape. Compound fractures are the most serious as the broken bone pierces the skin, increasing risk of infection. Immediate treatment is needed to clean the wound and realign bones for compound fractures.
Fracture ppt
The document discusses different types of bone fractures. It defines a simple fracture as a closed fracture with no open skin wound that is typically treated with immobilization in a cast. A greenstick fracture is described as an incomplete break where one side of the bone is broken and the other is bent, commonly found in children. An impact fracture involves bone fragments being pushed into each other. A compound or open fracture is defined as when the skin is broken through from the fracture, usually requiring surgical treatment.
Bone structure and clinical importance
Bone is a mineralized connective tissue that forms the endoskeleton of vertebrates. It has both compact and spongy structures and develops through either membranous or endochondral ossification. Bone is made up of osteoprogenitor cells, osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts. Osteoblasts form new bone tissue while osteoclasts resorb old or damaged bone. The intricate blood supply through nutrient arteries is essential for bone growth and healing. Fractures heal through the formation of a hematoma, fibrocartilaginous callus, bony callus, and remodeling into secondary bone.
Fracture and its nursing management

A spiral fracture occurs when twisting forces are applied to a bone, putting one part of the bone in tension and the other in compression. When these forces exceed the bone's tolerance, it fractures diagonally along its long axis. Common causes are skiing accidents where the skier loses control and twists their leg.
Presentation3 Types of fracture
This document discusses different types of fractures and their characteristics. It defines a fracture and describes what can cause them, such as direct blows, crushing forces, twisting motions or muscle contractions. It outlines different types of fractures including complete, incomplete, comminuted, closed and open. It also discusses signs and symptoms of fractures like pain, loss of function, deformity, shortening, and crepitus. Emergency management of immobilizing the injured body part is described. Medical management can include closed or open reduction of the fracture along with immobilization techniques like casting or internal fixation devices.
Hepatotoxicity
This document discusses hepatotoxicity and liver injury. It covers clinical chemistry markers of liver injury including ALT, SDH, ALP, total bile acids, and bilirubin. It provides examples of clinical chemistry profiles that could indicate hepatocellular injury, cholestasis, or biliary obstruction. Organ weights and histopathological assessments are also important for evaluating hepatotoxicity. The liver has complex cellular architecture and various cell types can be involved in injury responses.
Fracture
A fracture is a broken bone that occurs when the resistance of bone yields to stress. There are various ways fractures can be classified including completeness of the break and orientation relative to the bone. The document describes three specific types of fractures - simple fractures involve a broken bone without skin penetration, compound fractures have the bone break through the skin, and transverse fractures occur at a right angle to the long axis of the bone.

Fractures
There are three main types of fractures described in the document. An oblique fracture is when the fracture line runs diagonally to the bone shaft. A comminuted fracture is when the bone breaks into three or more pieces, often from crushing or splintering injuries most common in elderly people. A compound fracture is the most serious type, where the broken bone penetrates the skin, requiring immediate treatment like surgery to clean and realign the bone to prevent infection during healing.

Fractures
A fracture is a broken bone caused by physical stress or pressure. Fractures are common, with the average person experiencing two in their lifetime. Symptoms include swelling, deformity, pain, and loss of function. Treatment involves x-rays, surgery, and rehabilitation. There are many types of fractures such as closed, colles, comminuted, compound, compression, greenstick, impacted, oblique, pathologic, spiral, stress, and transverse. A colles' fracture is a wrist fracture where the radius breaks transversely. A comminuted fracture involves the bone breaking into many small pieces. A transverse fracture occurs when the bone breaks straight across at a right angle to the long axis.

Fracture classification
This document provides an overview of fracture types and mechanisms. It begins with definitions of common fracture terms like avulsion, complete, transverse, oblique, and greenstick fractures. It then describes different fracture patterns including displaced vs. undisplaced, compound, pathological, stress, intra-articular, impacted, and crush fractures. The document explains how fractures can be displaced by forces at injury, gravity, or muscle pull. It concludes with descriptions of injury mechanisms including direct vs. indirect forces and factors that can weaken bone and cause pathological or stress fractures.
Bone fractures
Transverse fractures occur when a bone is broken straight across at a right angle to its long axis, often from a direct blow. Oblique fractures occur at an angle to the bone, usually from a twisting motion or angled impact, and are more common in the elderly with osteoporosis. Compound or open fractures break the skin, requiring immediate treatment to prevent infection from entering the bone. Pathologic fractures are caused by weakened bone from conditions like tumors or infection and can occur during normal activities.
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.
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.
Tkfrac
A fracture is a broken bone that can be caused by impact, stress, or weakened bones from conditions like osteoporosis. There are several types of fractures including greenstick, stress, and oblique fractures. Treatments for fractures include fixation to stabilize the bone, reduction to realign bone fragments either closed or through surgery, and traction applied through the skin or pins to restore alignment.
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 broken bone that can occur in different ways and types. The document discusses four types of fractures: oblique fractures which occur at an angle to the bone, compound fractures where the bone breaks through the skin, spiral fractures where the bone is twisted apart, and comminuted fractures where the bone is broken into multiple pieces. Treatment depends on the severity but may include casts, surgery to realign bones, or internal fixation with pins and rods.
Fractures
A bone fracture can result from high force impact, stress, or trivial injury caused by medical conditions like osteoporosis. There are three main types of fractures: simple fractures where the bone breaks but does not pierce the skin, transverse fractures which occur perpendicular to the bone's axis from direct blows, and greenstick fractures which partially break soft bones in children when the bone bends instead of snapping completely.
Fractures
A bone fracture can result from high force impact, stress, or trivial injury caused by medical conditions like osteoporosis. There are three main types of fractures: simple fractures where the bone breaks but does not pierce the skin, transverse fractures which occur at right angles to the bone from a direct blow, and greenstick fractures which mostly affect children when the bone bends but only partially breaks.
Bone injuries
Common injuries to the skeletal system include fractures, sprains, and dislocations. Fractures are broken bones that can be simple (closed), compound (open), comminuted (broken into multiple pieces), or greenstick (partially broken). Sprains are injuries to ligaments around joints caused by sudden twisting or stretching. Dislocations occur when a bone is forced out of its normal position in a joint, causing pain, swelling, and inability to use the affected area.
Three Types of Fractures
The document reviews three types of fractures: greenstick fractures which involve an incomplete or partial break more common in children's soft bones; oblique fractures which occur at an angle to the bone usually from a sharp blow; and pathologic fractures caused by an underlying bone disease or weakness like osteoporosis rather than direct trauma.

The document reviews three types of fractures: greenstick fractures which involve an incomplete or partial break more common in children's soft bones; oblique fractures which occur at an angle to the bone usually from a sharp blow; and pathologic fractures caused by an underlying bone disease or condition like osteoporosis rather than direct trauma.
Fracture
Fractures can be classified in several ways including by direction, location, alignment, displacement, and soft tissue involvement. The document describes these classification systems in detail. Fracture healing involves inflammatory, reparative, and remodeling phases. Factors that can affect healing include age, location of fracture, immobilization, and medical comorbidities. Treatment aims to restore function and involves reduction of fragments followed by stabilization methods such as casting, traction, plating, nailing, external fixation, or wiring. Potential complications include compartment syndrome and fat embolism syndrome.
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.
Chapter 4
This document summarizes different types of bone fractures. It describes comminuted fractures as fractures where the bone breaks into several smaller pieces. It then briefly outlines other common fractures like simple, compound, oblique, greenstick, and spiral fractures. Oblique fractures occur at an angle in the bone and can be caused by falls or impacts. Greenstick fractures incompletely break one side of the bone while bending the other side, and typically affect children's more pliable bones. Spiral fractures result from a twisting force that causes an oblique or spiral crack around the bone shaft.
Medical Term Presentation 3
Fractures occur when a bone breaks, either completely or partially. The most common causes of fractures are trauma from accidents or falls, osteoporosis which weakens bones, and overuse or stress fractures in athletes. There are different types of fractures including closed/simple fractures where the bone breaks but skin is not broken, open/compound fractures where the broken bone pierces the skin, and transverse, greenstick, or comminuted fractures which describe the way the bone is broken. After a fracture, the body works to heal the bone by forming a blood clot and callus tissue, with new bone cells growing to reconnect the broken pieces. Doctors diagnose and treat fractures using x-rays, casts, spl

Skin is the largest organ of the human body, serving crucial functions that include protection, sensation, regulation, and synthesis. Structurally, it consists of three main layers: the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis (subcutaneous layer).
1. **Epidermis**: The outermost layer primarily composed of epithelial cells called keratinocytes. It provides a protective barrier against environmental factors, pathogens, and UV radiation.
2. **Dermis**: Located beneath the epidermis, the dermis contains connective tissue, blood vessels, hair follicles, and sweat glands. It plays a vital role in supporting and nourishing the epidermis, regulating body temperature, and housing sensory receptors for touch, pressure, temperature, and pain.
3. **Hypodermis**: Also known as the subcutaneous layer, it consists of fat and connective tissue that anchors the skin to underlying structures like muscles and bones. It provides insulation, cushioning, and energy storage.
Skin performs essential functions such as regulating body temperature through sweat production and blood flow control, synthesizing vitamin D when exposed to sunlight, and serving as a sensory interface with the external environment.
Maintaining skin health is crucial for overall well-being, involving proper hygiene, hydration, protection from sun exposure, and avoiding harmful substances. Skin conditions and diseases range from minor irritations to chronic disorders, emphasizing the importance of regular care and medical attention when needed.
PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s Perspective
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

Breast cancer :hormonal discordance.pptx
Receptor Discordance in Breast Carcinoma During the Course of Life
Definition:
Receptor discordance refers to changes in the status of hormone receptors (estrogen receptor ERα, progesterone receptor PgR, and HER2) in breast cancer tumors over time or between primary and metastatic sites.
Causes:
Tumor Evolution:
Genetic and epigenetic changes during tumor progression can lead to alterations in receptor status.
Treatment Effects:
Therapies, especially endocrine and targeted therapies, can selectively pressure tumor cells, causing shifts in receptor expression.
Heterogeneity:
Inherent heterogeneity within the tumor can result in subpopulations of cells with different receptor statuses.
Impact on Treatment:
Therapeutic Resistance:
Loss of ERα or PgR can lead to resistance to endocrine therapies.
HER2 discordance affects the efficacy of HER2-targeted treatments.
Treatment Adjustment:
Regular reassessment of receptor status may be necessary to adjust treatment strategies appropriately.
Clinical Implications:
Prognosis:
Receptor discordance is often associated with a poorer prognosis.
Biopsies:
Obtaining biopsies from metastatic sites is crucial for accurate receptor status assessment and effective treatment planning.
Monitoring:
Continuous monitoring of receptor status throughout the disease course can guide personalized therapy adjustments.
Understanding and managing receptor discordance is essential for optimizing treatment outcomes and improving the prognosis for breast cancer patients.

CLASSIFICATION OF H1 ANTIHISTAMINICS-
FIRST GENERATION ANTIHISTAMINICS-
1)HIGHLY SEDATIVE-DIPHENHYDRAMINE,DIMENHYDRINATE,PROMETHAZINE,HYDROXYZINE 2)MODERATELY SEDATIVE- PHENARIMINE,CYPROHEPTADINE, MECLIZINE,CINNARIZINE
3)MILD SEDATIVE-CHLORPHENIRAMINE,DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE
TRIPROLIDINE,CLEMASTINE
SECOND GENERATION ANTIHISTAMINICS-FEXOFENADINE,
LORATADINE,DESLORATADINE,CETIRIZINE,LEVOCETIRIZINE,
AZELASTINE,MIZOLASTINE,EBASTINE,RUPATADINE. Mechanism of action of 2nd generation antihistaminics-
These drugs competitively antagonize actions of
histamine at the H1 receptors.
Pharmacological actions-
Antagonism of histamine-The H1 antagonists effectively block histamine induced bronchoconstriction, contraction of intestinal and other smooth muscle and triple response especially wheal, flare and itch. Constriction of larger blood vessel by histamine is also antagonized.
2) Antiallergic actions-Many manifestations of immediate hypersensitivity (type I reactions)are suppressed. Urticaria, itching and angioedema are well controlled.3) CNS action-The older antihistamines produce variable degree of CNS depression.But in case of 2nd gen antihistaminics there is less CNS depressant property as these cross BBB to significantly lesser extent.
4) Anticholinergic action- many H1 blockers
in addition antagonize muscarinic actions of ACh. BUT IN 2ND gen histaminics there is Higher H1 selectivitiy : no anticholinergic side effects

Chosen Fracture Types
- 1. Fractures
- 2. Transverse Fracture A Complete fracture that is straight across the bone at right angles to the long axel of the bone. Transverse fractures normally occur in one of two ways. • A direct blow (blunt trauma) • Doing things repetitively (running daily)
- 3. Comminuted Fracture A Fracture in which the bone is shattered, splintered, or crushed into many small pieces or fragments. At least three separate pieces of bone must be present for a fracture to be classified as comminuted. The more common areas of comminuted fractures are • The jaw bone • The hip bone
- 4. Greenstick Fracture A Fracture in which there is an incomplete break. One side of the bone is broken while the other side is bent. This mild bone fracture is commonly seen in children. Extreme force is usually the cause of the bone bending until it breaks.
- 5. Class of Fracture A simple fracture involves only the breakage of a bone. A compound fracture involves the breakage of bone as well as the skin.
- 6. Treatment •X-ray – To pinpoint the type of fracture. •Realign – To place the bone in it’s original position. This step in treatment may require staples or screws in an open reduction procedure. •Immobilize – Usually the casting process, especially for bones that may take months to heal.
