BONE FRACTURES

What is a fracture? A fracture is a partial or complete break in the bone. When a fracture occurs, it is classified as either open or closed: open fracture (Also called compound fracture.) - the bone exits and is visible through the skin, or a deep wound that exposes the bone through the skin. closed fracture (Also called simple fracture.) - the bone is broken, but the skin is intact.

What causes a fracture? Fractures occur when there is more force applied to the bone than the bone can absorb. Bones are weakest when they are twisted. Breaks in bones can occur from falls, trauma, or as a result of a direct blow or kick to the body.

What are the symptoms of a fracture? The following are the most common symptoms of a fracture. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include: pain in the injured area swelling in the injured area obvious deformity in the injured area difficulty using the injured area in a normal manner warmth, bruising, or redness in the injured area

TYPES OF FRACTURES COMMINUTED SPIRAL DEPRESSED COMPRESSED EPIPHYSEAL GREENSTICK OBLIQUE

greenstick - incomplete fracture. The broken bone is not completely separated.

transverse - the break is in a straight line across the bone

spiral - the break spirals around the bone; common in a twisting injury

oblique - diagonal break across the bone

compression - the bone is crushed, causing the broken bone to be wider or flatter in appearance.

comminuted - the break is in three or more pieces and fragments are present at the fracture site.

epiphyseal - epiphysis separates from the diaphysis along the epiphyseal plate.

depressed -Broken bone portion is pressed inward Typical of skull fracture

Name and describe each type of fracture pictured here.
