Bones of the hand and wrist |
Ulnar Radius Carpals (8) Metacarpals (5) Phalanges (14) - Distal - Intermediate - Proximal |
|
|
Carpal Bones |
Trapezoid Trapezium Capitate Hamate Pisiform Scaphoid- Most commonly fractured Lunate- Most commonly dislocated Triquetrum |
|
|
Ligaments of the Wrist |
Ulnar Collateral Ligament Radial Collateral Ligament Transverse Carpal Ligament |
|
|
Saddle Joint |
an articulation between concave and convex ends of bones
|
|
|
Radiocarpal Joint |
Condyloid
|
|
|
Tinel's Sign |
Ulnar nerve parenthesis that results when the ulnar nerve is tapped by the examiner near the elbow. A positive Tinels sign is an indication of ulnar nerve involvement /impairment
|
|
|
Intracondylar |
The area of a bone that is between two condyles, usually at the distal end of a bone that forms a hinge joint.
|
|
|
Supracondylar |
The area of a bone that is directly above the condyles, so just proximal to the joint. |
|
|
Traction Apophysitis |
Swelling and irritation at the apophyseal area of immature bone due to repetitive traction force.
|
|
|
Colle's Fracture
|
Fracture of the distal radius
|
|
|
Epiphseal |
Fracture pf the medial epicondyle or the olecranon process are most common in adolescents
|
|
|
Suracondylar Fracture of Humerus |
May be the cause of Volkmann's Ischemic Contracture due to loss of blood supply or nerve damage, or swelling. |
|
|
Palpation |
Distal end of raduis/ulna
Carpal Bones: Scaphoid, Lunate Metacarpals Phalanges Styloid process |
|
|
Anatomical Landmarks-Ligaments |
Transverse carpal ligament
RCL- Between the styloid process of the radius and the scaphoid UCL- Between the styloid process of the ulna and the pisiform/ triquetrum |
|
|
Brain Covering |
Scalp decreases force of impact on head. (Cerobral spinal fluid)
|
|
|
Cerebrospinal Fluid |
Between the Dura Mater and the Cranum is the Cerebrospinal Fluid
-Protects brain from impact Bathes brain and spinal cord in nutrient rich environment |
|
|
Terminology |
Vertebral Foramen: Hole of space where spinal cor runs Intervertebral disc- Cartilage cushioning between vertebrae Vertebral Column- The skeletal spine Nerve Root- Opening on the lateral pf tje vertebrae where peripheral nerves leave the spinal column |
|
|
Stinger/ Burner |
Head is forced into a lateral position while athlete;s arm is pulled in the opposite direction.
|
|
|
Cervical Sprain Mechanism |
Forceful his from behind. The body is forced forward by the blow while the head moves backward which places the cervical spine into extension and stretches the ligaments and muscle at the back of the neck.
|
|
|
Low Back Muscle Strains |
Sudden rotation and contraction of an overloaded, unprepared or underdeveloped spine. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Spearing Axial Loading |
Spearing: Athlete uses top of the helmet to hit another athlete Axial Loading: A force delivered to the top of a straight column of vertebrae. |
|
|
Cervical Spine Fracture/ Dislocation Mechanism |
Often the result of combination of excessive neck flexion and rotation.
Axial loading of the cervical vertebrae from a force to the top of the head combined with flexion of the neck can result in a fracture or dislocation. |
|
|
Spinal Stenosis |
Characterized by a narrowing of the spinal canal in the cervical region that can impinge the spinal cord.
|
|
|
Cervical Disk Injury |
Sustained, repetitive cervical loading during contact sports. The disk extrudes posterolaterally. |
|
|
Herniated Disk Mechanism |
Develops from extruded posterolateral disk fragment or from degeneration of the disk
|
|
|
TBI MTBI |
Traumatic Brain Injury: Caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head that can change the way your brain normally works.
Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: Can cause physical o mental problems |
|
|
Baseline ImPACT SCAT3 BESS |
Baseline: determine normal scores ImPACT: Computerized software of testing brain's normal function SCAT3: Test cognitive function BESS: Balance error scoring system. Test Balance and coordination skills. |
