Daily Quiz Name one type of bone tissue. Name a bone in the axial skeleton. Name a bone in the appendicular skeleton. Name one of the four bone types. What is hematopoiesis?

Bone Fractures and Disorders
3
Bone Fractures Slide 5.16 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings A break in a bone Types of bone fractures Closed (simple) fracture – break that does not penetrate the skin Open (compound) fracture – broken bone penetrates through the skin
4
Greenstick Fracture incomplete break occurs on the convex surface of the bend in the bone
5
Fissured Fracture incomplete, longitudinal break
6
Comminuted Fracture complete and fractures the bones basically shattering a bone
7
Transverse Fracture complete break occurs at a right angle to the axis of the bone
8
Oblique Fracture occurs at an angle other than a right angle to the axis of the bone
9
Spiral Fracture twisting break caused by excessive twisting of the bone
10
Healing Fractures Healing a fracture generally takes 6-8 weeks children usually heal faster than adults
11
Healing Fractures Step 1: Blood escapes from ruptures blood vessels and forms a hematoma (blood clot)
12
Healing Fractures Step 2: spongy bone forms in regions close to developing blood vessels and cartilage forms in more distant regions (cartilage callus)
13
Healing Fractures Step 3: A bony callus replaces the cartilage callus
14
Healing Fractures Step 4: Excess bone tissue is removed, making bone much like the original
15
How can doctors help fractures heal? Immobilize the bones! Screws, plates, nails, rods Hybrid Fixator Casts First cast introduced in Philadelphia in 1876
16
Skeletal System Disorders Brittle Bone Disease genetic disorder resulting in bones that break easily
17
Skeletal System Disorders Osteoporosis occurs when new bone is not being made fast enough to replace degenerating bone older women at higher risk
18
Skeletal System Disorders Scoliosis abnormal curve in the spine
19
Skeletal System Disorders Arthritis inflammation of the joints
20
Label the Following Bones on your skeleton Metacarpals Phalanges (fingers) Femur Patella Tibia Fibula Tarsals/Talus Metatarsals Phalanges (toes) Cranium Mandible Clavicle Sternum Ribs Humerus Radius Ulna Sacrum Vertebrae Carpals
