27 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
tharacic spine
has very few injuries, is muscular, and most common injured are throwers, VB players and swimmers
prevent by addressing posture
Cervicle-spine injuries . . .
are fairly uncommon, but make up more than 90% of fatal injuries in athletics
MOIs, are spearing and falling head first
Emergency plan for C-spine injuries

MOI for them
people should know roles and equiptment
always suspect head/neck injury with unconciousness
always expect the worst

Axial loading and flexion force is a common combonation. A third is hyper extension force
What is common name, S/S, Tx, and return plan for cervicle spine strain
whiplash
S/S= decreased ROM, diffuse tenderness, no peripheral pain and normal neurological functions, biggest is that pain stays in the area
tx=immobilze possibly, ice, rest
to return person must have full pain free ROM and strength
S/S, location, who gets, and when return for c-spine fracture/dislocation
S/S= C-spine tenderness, peripheral pain, and/or parasthesia, and abnormal neurological functions
locations is C4-C6
Divers and wrestlers highest chance
Not recomended to ever return to play
What to do if you suspect C-spine injury?
stabalize head and neck, leave helmet and shoulder pads
If not breathing, remove barriers put in supine position, monitor vital signs
What is the Miami project
a group to look at how to treat C-spine injuries by inducing hypothermia so blood and oxygen move to spinal cord and brain
What is, what are S/S, special tests, and tx and most common affected of thoracic outlet syndrom
it is a c-spine injury, a compression of nerves and or vessels between scalenes and first rib
S/S= nerve pain, circ problems
ST= allen, adson's, roos
tx=finding cause (usually inflames scalenes), may need sx, also rest, ROM, anti inflam
mostly overhead athletes (swimmers)
who gets, what is MOI, S/S, and Tx of burner/stinger
most common in football
MOI=stretched or compression in brachial plexus (C5-T1)
S/S=burning, stinging in neck arm or hand, muscle weakness, neck pain
tx is to rest until full strength
What could a burner/stinger [rogress into
If chronis burners and stingers may have spinal stenosis, which is narrowing of spinal canal.
SS includes all four limbs affected
What are some preventions of spinal injuries
strong neck muscles, and not excessive ROM
flexibility bilaterally
education for collisions
proper protective equiptment
posture and core strngthening
Core strngthening levels
rectus abdominis does not help
two levels are local and global
local involves transverse abdominis
global includese ex oblique, erector spinea, rec ab,
local is usually weak, as well as gluteus medius
What does MTBI stand for?
what percentage?
why does it not show on a CT scan
mild traumatic brain injury
which is a usually shorter term sports concussion in any sport
about 10% loss of conciousness
9% all HS injuries
they are metabolic and not structural and headache is probably from increased glucose demand, and the older you are the faster you recover
What is MOI for concussion?
what is a countercoup injury?
direct or indirect
brain damage to opposit side of head from trauma and MOI is usualy hitting a stationary object
key signs of a concussion
disorientation, nausia, tinitis, balance, post traumatic amnesia (short term) and retrograde (things from before injury)
must be given a field SCAT
remember base line impact
what is a gross neurological exam?
what is second impact syndrom
gross= questions like can you feel my hand, can you flex your feet?
-when an athlete plays with some symptoms of a past concussion, then gets another causing serious injury and possibly death
what would be the difference between a subdural hematoma and arterial bleeding?
a subdural hematoma takes a long time for symptoms to appear/progress (hours to days)
Arterial bleeding is high pressure between brain and skull and has rapid deterioration (min to hours) with similar S/S but including sleepiness and convulsions
What runs through the coracoacromial joint
coracoacromial ligament
supraspinatus, long head of biceps, superior/anterior labrum and subacromial bursa
list the phases of throwing
early cocking-supraspinatus active
late cocking=anterior structures stretched, stable scap
acceleration, internal rotation max speed and stable scap
deceleration=posterior muscles slow *teras minor
follow through=scapula protracts (serratus anterior)
what position is arm forced into for a subluxation or dislocation (MOI)
common in?
abduction and external rotation

gymnasts, wrestlers
describe the three lesions
SLAP= superior labrum ant to post, accompanied by biceps pathology
Bankart=anterior labrum pulling away from glenoid
HILL SACHS=humeral head pulled away
What is the overuse shoulder continuum
overuse into microtrauma into instability into subluxation into RC tear
What phase of the throwing motion would be painful with rotator cuff strain and tendonitis
follow through

special test is Jobe's, apprehension, and drop arm
what are the special test for impingement syndreome

big s/s
modified Hawkins-kennedy, speeds horizantal adduction?

snapping clicking
special test for bicipital tendonitis

frozen shoulder
yergason's (speeds)

impingment test
special test for acromial clavicular sprain
what should you role out?
tap test (S/S holding arm close to body)

clavicle fx
what do the four C's stand for (concussion analysis)

special tests for concussion?
cognitive, cranial nerves, coordination, concussion

babinski for reflexes and dermatomes for sensory
