New cards

Hematoma, Fibrocartilaginous callus, Bony callus, bone remodeling

Steps of Healing Bones

2
New cards

Step 1. of healing

Hematoma develops, cell die, and tissue is inflamed

3
New cards

Step 2. of healing

Phagocytes eat up debree, capilaries are built to allow nutrients to be delivered to the area, and fibroblasts/ osteoblasts lay down

4
New cards

Step 3. of healing

Cartilage from previous step hardens from osteoblasts

5
New cards

Step 4 of healing

boney callus is remodeled into its original form by breaking excess bone and is stronger than before

6
New cards

Fibrocartilaginous callus

duct tape fix

7
New cards

causes dead cells

mixing of blood and cells

8
New cards

Bony Callus

Callus hardening on hands or feet

9
New cards

Bone remodeling

Make the bone pretty

10
New cards

Intramembranous ossification, Endochondral ossification, Appositional Growth

types of development

11
New cards

Intramembranous ossification

Forms in connective membrane which are osteoprogenitor cells that turn into osteoblasts. These centers will grow out and will start developing bone in the fontanels.

12
New cards

Endochondral ossification

Occurs at the end of long bones and replaces cartilage that builds out from the diaphysis side first and then from the epiphysis side.

13
New cards

Why bones don’t grow from the middle

if the middle was broken down to build more bone, there would be no support for the rest of the weight that is being put on that bone

14
New cards

Appositional Growth

Where the diameter of the bone is growing out wider. Occurs where the bone is being broken down next to the marrow cavity and being built outside, just below the periosteum

15
New cards

Getting more calcium

In the para thyroid gland. Signals PTH to tell osteoclasts to break down bone to get more calcium into the blood

16
New cards

PTH, osteoclasts, bone breakdown

Low calcium process

17
New cards

Lowering calcium

There is too much calcium, so calcitonin is triggered from the thyroid gland to deposit the calcium.

18
New cards

thyroid gland, Calcitonin, osteoblast, deposit

High calcium process

19
New cards

Spongey bone

Cancellous bone is also known as

20
New cards

Cancellous Bone

No osteons, but has trabeculae and arranged in lines of stress

21
New cards

Why bones are arranged in long lines of stress

the arch shape helps with dispersing the amount of weight that the bone has to bear

22
New cards

Cortical bone

Compact bone is also known as

23
New cards

harverson canal, lamellae, lacunae, caniculi

Parts of compact bone

24
New cards

Lacunae

A lagune; fluid filled sacks that are filled with osteocytes

25
New cards

Lamellae

Rings of trees; concentric cylinder-shaped layers of calcified matrix. Helps the bone be stronger because of the layers

26
New cards

Canaliculi

Canaoli; ultrasmall canals radiating from lacunae and connecting them to each other and

to other osteons

27
New cards

Why canaliculi is important

Allows there to have communication lines between the lacunae. If the bone is breaking down or building up in one of the lacunae, the lines allow the bone to know exactly what is happening and where

28
New cards

Osteoblasts

bone forming cells found in all bone surfaces

29
New cards

Osteoid

Ground substance that allows collagen fibrils to be laid down to strengthen the bone

30
New cards

Collagen fibrils

the spaghetti that strengthens the bone after osteoid is put down

31
New cards

Osteoclasts

break down bone

32
New cards

Osteocytes

mature, non-dividing osteoblasts within lacunae

33
New cards

Support, movement, mineral storage, protection, hematopoiesis

Functions of bone

34
New cards

Forms the framework of the body and allows internal organs to hang by membrane

What support provides

35
New cards

Pelvis, cranium, and ribs protect delicate organs

What protection provides

36
New cards

Pivot points from joints allows for muscles to move us

What movement provides

37
New cards

Calcium production for us to survive in nature

What mineral storage provides

38
New cards

How much readily available

Nature does not care how strong our bones are rather…

39
New cards

Hematopoiesis

Blood cell formation that occurs in red bone marrow

40
New cards

Open reduction

Professional has to go in surgically to repair a bone displacement one via wires, bones, pins, or plates

41
New cards

Human professional

Who a reduction is performed by

42
New cards

wires, bolts, pins, or plates

Open reductions are repaired by

43
New cards

closed reduction

bones are set by hand from the outside

44
New cards
