    Study Notes

    Word Roots

    • Adeno/Blepharo/Cepahlo/Chole/Choledocho/Chondro/Colo/Cysto/Entero/Erythro/Gastro/Glosso/Hepato/Hystero/Ileo/Jejuno/Laparo/Myelo/Myo/Nephro/Orhido/Osteo/Path/Pneumo/Pyelo/Pyo/Salpingo

    Fractures

    • Two causes: disease (like cancer) or osteoporosis (porous bone), or osteomalacia (soft bones).
    • Greenstick fracture—common in children, not severing the bone
    • Simple fracture—no external wound
    • Comminuted fracture—splintered
    • Compound fracture—displaced
    • Impacted fracture—compression
    • Skull fractures (depressed, hairline—not severing continuity), (Hairline does NOT sever the continuity of the bone into 2 segment)

    Growth Disturbances

    • Neoplasms (abnormal growths): Benign (displace/compress tissues), or Malignant (invade lymph vessels, circulatory systems, Metastasis).
    • Hyperplasia (increase in cell number); Hypertrophy (increase in cell size) ; Tumors
    • Causes of malignant neoplasms are: Viruses, Chemicals, physical agents, hormones imbalances, heredity.

    Fracture Signs/Symptoms & Treatment

    • Signs/symptoms: swelling, bruising, deformity
    • Diagnosis: X-ray
    • Closed reduction (no surgery) = treatment for less severe fractures.
    • Open reduction (surgery) for severe fractures/dislocations.
    • Debridement: removes infection (necessary if open reduction was used)
    • Types of bone trauma: dislocation (bone out of place); subluxation (partial dislocation); sprain (torn ligaments)

    Types of Bone Healing Stages

    • Inflammatory (prevent infection)
    • Reparative (soft/hard callus formation)
    • Remodeling (osteoblasts/clasts activity)

    Factors Affecting Bone Healing

    • Four causes of non-union
      • Infection,
      • Impaired circulation

    Gastrointestinal System

    • Salivary glands (parotid/lingual/submandibular/submaxillary); lubrication, and carbohydrate digestion.
    • Digestion = Food breakdown and conversion
    • Absorption = transfer and utilization
    • Stomach = storage reservoir for food

    Classification of Wounds

    • Contusion: bruising (skin not broken), discoloration (rupturing of blood vessels), ecchymosis
    • Abrasion: torn away by friction
    • Puncture: penetrating or perforating
    • Avulsion: tearing injury (loss of skin)

    Phases of Wound Healing

    • Phases of wound healing (Label and Days)

    Wound Complications

    • Suppurating wounds (pus formation); Scar formation (cicatrix) and its formation phase)

    Factors Affecting Wound Healing

    • Host resistance (4 component host resistance)

    Genitourinary System

    • Kidney function (urination/voiding/micturition)
    • Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
    • Aspects of UTI (polyuria, dysuria, hematuria, pyuria [suppurating infection], anuria)
    • Kidney failure (anuria)
    • Kidney stone formation (pyelonephrosis)

    Wound/Wound Healing

    • Degeneration (reversible); Necrosis (cell death); Inflammation functions (prevent spread, remove dead cells); Atrophy (size decline); Inflammation (blood vessel vasodilation, histamine)
