    Study Notes

    Pathophysiology 6th Edition Test Bank Summary

    • Passive stretching of a muscle indicative of noncontractile tissue injury
    • Muscular dystrophy is genetically transmitted, not easily preventable, not autoimmune or demyelinating
    • Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disease with dysfunctional acetylcholine receptors
    • Anticholinesterase inhibitors may be used to manage myasthenia gravis
    • Compound transverse fracture is broken and protruding through the skin
    • Likely complications from a compound transverse fracture include bone infection, fat emboli, and compartment syndrome
    • Pulselessness and pallor six hours after surgical alignment and casting indicate compartment syndrome, requiring cast split or removal
    • Development of a blood clot beneath the periosteum is the most likely event following a bone fracture
    • Bone healing may be impaired by nicotine use, not excessive vitamin C, high-protein diet, or immobilization
    • Unique characteristic feature of fibromyalgia is tender point pain
    • A fracture breaking into two or more fragments is called a comminuted fracture
    • Greenstick fractures occur most often in the growing bones of children

    Pathophysiology of Bone Disorders

    • Osteopenia, osteomyelitis, and osteoporosis are not caused by vitamin D deficiency
    • Malunion is the healing of a fractured bone with poor alignment
    • Subluxation is the displacement of two bones with partial loss of contact
    • Osteomalacia involves inadequate mineralization in the osteoid
    • Rickets, caused by vitamin D deficiency, is similar to osteomalacia
    • Pain in fibromyalgia involves changes in pain transmission in the spinal cord
    • Osteosarcoma is a malignant bone-forming tumor
    • Bursitis is inflammation of the sacs overlying bony prominences
    • Paget disease involves excessive bone resorption and formation, causing fractures and deformities
    • Greenstick fractures occur primarily in children
    • Osteomalacia is caused by vitamin D deficiency in adults
    • Hematogenous osteomyelitis via the bloodstream is the most common type of osteomyelitis
