Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Rupture of flexor digitorum profundus tendon






2. Main stabilizing ligament in knee - lachmans - vital to function of knee - knee gives out when injured - need surgery - stops the femurfrom rolling too far on top of the tibia - injured from rotation and hyperextension






3. From eversion






4. A common site for contusions is the hee - heel cups can help with pain






5. Toenail curls into skin and causes infection - treat by stuffing toe withsmall amount of cotton






6. Sling shoulder injuries






7. Transverse






8. Occur most often over the shin-pain could stay for life - must protect bruised area from further trauma - periostem-outer covering of the bone






9. Weakness of a bone - only way to heal it is rest for apoximatly four weeks - overuse injury - caused by a change in training - rapid gain in weight - training surface - shoes - predisposition - flat orhigh arches - localized pain - increased pain aft






10. 5thmetacarpal fracture - punching something - pain over 5th metacarpa - swelling - needs a cast






11. Fastest joint in the body - made up sternum - clavicle - humerus - and scapula






12. 1.acute fracture-goes away and heals 2. stress fracture 3. epipyseal damage 4. periostitis-imflammation of periostem






13. Blunt trauma - or fall on the head - severe headache - nasua - skull indentation - nose bleed - bleeding ears - black eyes - discoloration behind ears- battle sign - cerbospinal fluid from ears and nose -its yellowish






14. From eversion






15. Muscle tearing away from bone - pain on both sides of shin - small muscles in shin attach directly to bone - not by tendon - when overuse occurs these mucles pull on periosteum causing inflammation and pain






16. After the injury occurs






17. Fascia is thick - fibrous tissue that helps support the arch - very common injury - esp in runners - freeze water bottle and roll it under foot - insoles are also very helpful






18. Inflammation of the rotator cuff tendon treat withice nsaids and rest need to strenghten






19. Causes numbness and tingling. nerves pressed together






20. Hospital refer to neurosurgeon - intracranial bleeding - bone fragments embedded into the brain -infection






21. Varus - connects from lateral femoral condyle to the fibular head - injured when receive blow to medial portion of knee






22. Longitudinal






23. Flat foot






24. 1. inversion-most common - bottom of foot goes in 2. bottom of foot goes out - there is a high risk of fracture 3. plantar flexion-toes to ground 4. dorsiflexion-toes up to shin






25. Anything wrong with the end of the bone






26. Inflammation of a tendon - **** splint - general pain - decreased pain after warming up






27. Tibia- inside - talus-under tibia - fibula-outside






28. Most serious - pressure buildup due to trauma and overuse - can cause numbness and tinglingin lower leg and/or foot - very serious and can cause loss of function






29. Humerous pops out of joint - but pops in on its own - leads to instability






30. Pop of the achilles tendon - surgery is needed - dectectable with thompson test - squeeze back of calf - foot should move - sometimes calf balls up






31. Sling shoulder injuries






32. Tibia- inside - talus-under tibia - fibula-outside






33. Most common knee condition - caused by outside quad muscle being stronger than iside - causes knee cap to slide laterally and over time causes cartilage on underside of kneecap to swell because it rubs on femur - sometimes feels like it needs to pop






34. Seperation of outer layer of skin from theinner layer and fluid or blood accumulates. drain fluid with sterile pin - leave loose skin if still alive






35. An acute fracture broken in 3 or more pieces






36. Weakness of a bone - only way to heal it is rest for apoximatly four weeks - overuse injury - caused by a change in training - rapid gain in weight - training surface - shoes - predisposition - flat orhigh arches - localized pain - increased pain aft






37. Pain on front - lateral part of shin - not localized - pain with resisted dorsiflesion - pain will decrease after blood flow is imporved






38. An acute fractrue chunk of bone is torn away usually in fingers






39. Apply compression with horeshoe to minimize swelling remember compression is more important than ice ace wrap starts at foot - move up as you wrap






40. Tearing up to 3 ligaments can be out 4 weeks to 3 months






41. Fungal infection - feness - scaling - cracking and itching between toes. treat by drying foot thoroughly after shower and applying fungicide - wear clean white socks






42. No return to activity. one full week of rest - test with excertion make sure symptoms dont come back






43. Thickening of outer layer of skin from constant friction. can soften skin and trim excess callus tissue - donut padmay help with pain






44. Seperation of outer layer of skin from theinner layer and fluid or blood accumulates. drain fluid with sterile pin - leave loose skin if still alive






45. Tendonitis inflammation of the lateral tendon






46. Repeated pull of patella tendon at tibial tuberosity on front of femur - pain at attachement of patella tendon - occurs in young athletes when grwoing to fast - they will eventurally grow out of it - cant really treat just ice a sleeve may help






47. Plantar fasciitis - muscle or tendon - morning pain






48. Acromioclavicular joint(AC) or sternoclavicular - shear test - due to falling on outside of shoulder






49. Humerus pops out of joint-needs help putting back in can lead to instability - drawer test - failure to treat immediatly could lead to permanent damage






50. Repeated pull of patella tendon at tibial tuberosity on front of femur - pain at attachement of patella tendon - occurs in young athletes when grwoing to fast - they will eventurally grow out of it - cant really treat just ice a sleeve may help
