A person pushing off explosively at the start of a 100m race may experience a strain. This injury occurs at the:
Muscle
Ligament
Bone
Connective Tissue
Shin splints are common in people who run on footpaths as part of their training. This is an example of the following injury class:
Acute
Inflammation
Environmental
Overuse
Core strength training receives a great deal of attention in elite athletes because it:
Decreases the risk of injury
Improves acceleration and deceleration of body parts
Improves the transfer of power between upper and lower body parts
All of the above
Pre-activity screening is undertaken in all professional sports in an effort to:
Provide a baseline to which future tests can be compared
Identify the most suitable playing position on a team
Minimise the risk of injury during physical activity
Best plan a training program
The purpose of an active cool down following competition and training is to:
Maintain systolic blood pressure and prevent venous pooling
Assist in the removal of metabolic by-products
Minimise the effect of D.O.M.S. in the following days
All of the above
What protective equipment aims to restrict the amount of movement that occurs at a joint and thus provide additional support which reduces the likelihood of soft-tissue injuries
Padding
Mouth guard
Correct Footwear
Taping/Bracing
Resistance training can be incorporated by (multiple answers)
Planning to do regular household /gardening chores (mowing, raking, sweeping)
Using weights, kettle bells, etc.. As part of a weight training program
Substituting common household items for traditional weights such as cans, drink bottles, etc.
Taking the family for a 30 minute continuous exercise: bike ride, run or swim
Using resistance bands and tubing thereby requiring greater forces to enable joint movements
Resistance training is ideal for developing muscle and bone strength. (multiple answers)
Increased range of motions at joints
Improved cardiovascular endurance
Increased speed of contraction
Improved fibre recruitment
Improved core strength and posture
What should occur after a general warm up aimed at increasing blood flow to working muscles
Warm up
Static stretching
Dynamic stretching
Flexibility exercises
Why is dynamic stretching thought to be better in terms of activity preparation and injury risk reduction when contrasted to static stretching?
Activates both the neuromuscular systems and improves their co-ordination resulting in more fluent/biomechanically efficient movements
Best replicates the actions likely to be performed shortly there after (more specific) to reduces likelihood of unexpected movements and joint pressures
Has an associated increase in resp. & heart rates, blood flow, oxygen uptake, etc. thus better preparing the whole body and not just the joint for performance
All of the above
Examples of musculoskeletal injuries include...
PTSD
whiplash
sprains
fractures
Blood leaks into an affected muscle compartment ->
Then drains out through another compartment
Rise in interstitial compartment pressure
Lymph fluid flows OUT of the affected compartment
Which sequence is correct?
vascular occlusion -> paraesthesia -> paralysis
vascular occlusion -> paralysis -> paraesthesia
paraesthesia -> vascular occlusion -> paralysis
Symptoms of Compartment Syndrome
Pain
Numbness
Swelling
Hypoesthesia
What is the treatment for Compartment Syndrome?
Urgent fasciotomy
Amputation
High dose antibiotics
High dose anti-coagulants
What does the musculoskeletal provide?
(a)
What is the role of ligaments?
Connect bones to bones
Connects bone to muscle
Ligaments are very high tensile strength, inelastic and flexible
True
False
Injuries involving muscles result in _________
Sprain
Luxation
Strain
Where are joints found?
(a)
Tendons are inelastic and flexible
True
False
Injuries in a tendon result in a _______
Rupture
Subluxation
Cartilage is a ___________.
Smooth, elastic surface between bones
Smooth, elastic surface on bones
Hard, inelastic surface between bones
Hard, inelastic surface on bones
What does cartilage do?
(a)
Simple fractures entail:
Bone does not break through the skin
Broken ends shatter into many pieces
'clean' break
A compound fracture is when the bone breaks into separate pieces and pierces through the skin
True
False
Osteoporosis results in more porous, weak and brittle bone and increased susceptibility to fractures
True
False
Osteoarthritis is a reversible disease
True
False
What are some effects of osteoarthritis?
(only non-weight bearing bone in lower extremity)
What type of soft tissue injury is this? (must use medical term)
Contusion
Abrasion
Laceration
Scrape
This is an example of a tooth...
Laceration
Incision
Fracture
Abrasion
A completely torn tendon that resulting in loss of motion is a ___________
Grade 2 sprain
Grade 2 strain
Grade 3 strain
Grade 3 sprain
An overstretched ligament that causes no loss of ROM
Grade 1 sprain
Grade 1 strain
Grade 2 sprain
Grade 2 strain
