Medical Terminology and Fractures Quiz

A fracture caused by a disease, such as cancer.

A disease where bones become porous and weak.

A fracture common in children where the bone bends and cracks, but doesn't break completely.

A fracture without an open wound.

A fracture where the bone is splintered or broken into many pieces.

A fracture with an open wound, exposing the bone.

Displacement of a bone from its joint.

A cancerous tumor that invades other tissues and organs.

The spread of cancer from one part of the body to another.

Part of the large intestine that travels upwards.

A partial dislocation of a bone.

A tear in ligaments.

Inflammatory, reparative, and remodeling phases.

Infection, impaired circulation (blood flow), and other problems.

Methods to diagnose problems with the intestines.

A bruise; discoloration from ruptured blood vessels.

A scrape or injury from friction.

A tearing injury, often with skin loss.

Different types of wound healing approaches.

One part of the intestine sliding into another.

Creating a new opening in the small intestine

Types of enterostomies, involving small intestine or colon

Producing pus

A cicatrix (scar)

The act of excreting urine

Essential processes of the kidneys. (Content not provided).

Kidney infection with pus and stones

Tissue death

Prevent injury spread and remove dead cells.

Decrease in cell size

A condition where bones are soft due to a lack of Vitamin D, leading to bone deformities and fractures.

A bone fracture without an open wound, where the skin is intact.

A fracture where the bone is splintered or broken into many pieces.

A fracture where the bone is broken, and the broken bone protrudes through the skin, causing an open wound.

Displacement of a bone from its normal position within a joint.

A fracture caused by weakened bone due to a disease, such as cancer or osteoporosis.

Malignant neoplasms, or cancerous tumors, can be caused by various factors including viruses like HPV, chemical and physical agents such as radiation, hormone imbalances, and even genetic predisposition.

Bone trauma can include fractures, dislocations, and avulsions. Fractures involve breaks in the bone. Dislocations involve bones shifting out of their normal joint position. Avulsions involve a flap of skin being torn or pulled off.

They produce saliva, which lubricates food and starts carbohydrate digestion.

1. Inflammatory: Prevents infection. 2. Reparative: Forms soft and then hard callus. 3. Remodeling: Osteoblasts build new bone, osteoclasts remove old bone.

Causes include: 1. Infection: Bacteria invade the site. 2. Impaired Circulation: Poor blood flow prevents healing. 3. Other Issues: Movement, improper alignment, etc.

This is where most food digestion happens. It has three regions: Duodenum, Jejunum, and Ileum.

Damaged blood vessels cause discoloration under the skin, but the skin itself is not broken.

Friction tears away part of the skin.

A serious tear in tissue often involves skin loss.

Methods of healing. 1st (primary) involves direct closure. 2nd (secondary) heals on its own. 3rd (delayed closure) is used for severe wounds.

One part of the intestine slides into another, like a telescope.

The kidneys filter waste from the blood, produce urine, regulate blood pressure, and help produce red blood cells.

A reversible process where cells lose their normal structure and function.

Inflammation prevents the spread of injury and removes dead cells.

An abnormal growth of tissue. It can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous).

An increase in the size of cells or organs, making them larger.

A type of enterostomy where the opening is created in the ileum (small intestine).

A type of enterostomy where the opening is created in the colon (large intestine).

The process of urinating, or expelling urine from the bladder.

Another term for urination, the act of expelling urine from the bladder.

The presence of blood in the urine, indicating potential problems in the urinary tract.

A reversible process where cells lose their normal structure and function, but can potentially recover.

1. Inflammatory: Prevents infection. 2. Reparative: Forms soft and then hard callus. 3. Remodeling: Osteoblasts build new bone, osteoclasts remove old bone.

They produce saliva, which lubricates food and starts carbohydrate digestion. There are four: Parotid, Lingual, Submandibular, and Submaxillary.

1. Infection: Bacteria invade the site. 2. Impaired Circulation: Poor blood flow prevents healing. 3. Movement: Too much movement can disrupt the healing process. 4. Other Issues: Improper alignment, malnutrition, etc.

1. Colonoscopy: Camera inserted into the rectum to view the colon. 2. Sigmoidoscopy: Similar to colonoscopy, but shorter scope reaching the sigmoid colon. 3. Barium Enema: X-ray of the colon with contrast dye. 4. Symptoms: Abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, constipation.

1. Duodenum: First part, where most digestion happens. 2. Jejunum: Middle, absorbs nutrients. 3. Ileum: Last, absorbs remaining nutrients.

1. Primary (1st): Direct closure with sutures or staples. 2. Secondary (2nd): Wound heals on its own, leaving a scar. 3. Delayed primary (3rd): Severe wounds are left open initially, then closed later.

1. Foreign Body: Something swallowed and got stuck. 2. Intussusception: One part of the intestine slides into another. 3. Tumors: Growths can block the intestine. 4. Hernia: Protrusion of a part of the intestine through a weak area in the abdominal wall.

A bruise, where damaged blood vessels cause discoloration under the skin, but the skin itself is not broken.

A scrape or injury from friction, where part of the skin is torn away.

A tearing injury, often involving skin loss, where tissue is pulled away from the body.
