|
OSTEOPOROSIS |
Most common bone disease Bones lose mass
|
|
FRACTURE TREATMENTS |
Closed- no surgery Open- plates, screws, pins Cast Traction- bed confinement Orthopedics- deals with prevention/correction of bones/joints etc. |
|
HEALING OF A FRACTURE |
A hematoma forms. Fibrocartilaginous callus forms. Bone remodeling occurs. |
|
FRACTURE TYPES |
Stress fracture- break by trauma to bone Pathological fracture- disease caused break
|
|
FRACTURE CHARACTERISTICS |
Direction of? multiple pieces? break in the skin? |
|
Hypercalcimia |
an excess of blood calcium |
|
Hypocalcimia |
Deficiency of blood calcium
|
|
Bone marrow |
soft tissue that occupies the marrow cavity of |
|
red marrow (myeloid tissue)
|
-in nearly every bone in a child |
|
yellow marrow found in adults
|
-most red marrow turns into fatty

ossification or osteogenesis |
formation of bone |
|
in the human fetus and infant, bone |
-intramembranous ossification |
|
Endo & Chondral
|
Endo=within
