Risk factors for hemorrhagic stroke include

Acute hypertension.

Pain is thought of as

Subjective experience that is difficult to measure objectively.

One of the most common causes of acute pain is

Headache.

Rheumatoid arthritis presence of rheumatoid factor autoantibodies in the bloodstream indicates

An autoimmune process.

Clinical manifestations of a stroke within the right cerebral hemisphere include

Left-sided muscle weakness and neglect.

In older women, osteoporosis is thought to be primarily due to

Estrogen deficiency

Rickets is characterized by soft, weak bones resulting from a deficiency of

Vitamin D

A compound, transverse fracture is best described as a bone that is

Broken and protruding through the skin

In the acute phase of stroke, treatment is focused on

Stabilization of respiratory and cardiovascular function

A patient with a severe, pounding headache accompanied by nausea and photophobia is

migraine headache.

The most important preventative measure for hemorrhagic stroke is

Blood pressure control

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a rheumatic disease attributed to

Autoimmune mechanisms.

In contrast to osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis may be associated with

Systemic aching in the musculoskeletal system

Rupture of a cerebral aneurysm should be suspected if the patient reports…

Sudden, severe headache.

Ankylosing spondylitis is characterized by

Inflammation, stiffness, and fusion of spinal joints

Although skin manifestations may occur in numerous locations, systemic lupus erythematosus includes

A butterfly pattern rash on the face across the bridge of the nose

Following a bone fracture, the most likely event to occur

Development of a blood clot beneath the periosteum

Bone healing may be impaired by

Nicotine use

Cerebral aneurysm is most frequently the result of

subarachnoid hemorrhage

Rheumatoid arthritis involves joint inflammation caused by

Autoimmune injury

It is true that encephalitis is usually by

Viral infection in brain cells.

Student, reports a stiff neck and headache and fever of 102° F. This information is most consistent with

Meningitis.

The most important determinant for prescribing therapy for acute stroke is

Ischemic/thrombic verses hemorrhagic cause.

What type of fracture generally occurs in children?

Greenstick

A fracture in which bone breaks into two or more fragments is referred to as

Comminuted

People who have osteoporosis are at risk for

Bone fractures

A risk factor for osteoporosis is

Early menopause

The chief pathologic features of osteoarthritis

Degeneration of articular cartilage, destruction of the bone under the cartilage, and thickening of the synovium.

Most muscle strains are due to

Abnormal muscle contraction.

Tell me again chemical that makes crystals when my gout flares up

Uric Acid

Ankylosing spondylitis causes

Pain and inflammation joints between the vertebrae of the spine and joints between spine and pelvis (sacroiliac joints). Also called spondylitis or rheumatoid spondylitis, ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic condition

Which disorder causes skeletal pain and involves significant bone demineralization from vitamin D deficiency?

Osteomalacia

Healing of a fractured bone with a poor alignment is called

Malunion

ALL Manifestations of osteoarthritis

Joint pain, stiffness, and locomotor restriction

ALL Characteristics of gout

15-35 persons/1000, no known cause, genetics/env, Almost 95% of all patients with Gout are males.

The disease that is similar to osteomalacia and occurs in growing children is

Rickets

A malignant bone-forming tumor is referred to as

Multiple myeloma

Patient Dx diabetes, smokes a pack of cigarettes daily and eats very few green leafy vegetables. After a fractured toe, this patient is at risk for

Delayed healing

The most common source of osteomyelitis is

An infection that migrates via the bloodstream.

The most common site affected in Paget’s disease is the

Lower spine

Paget’s disease characterized

excessive bone resorption followed by excessive formation of fragile bone.

The disorders characterized by softening and then enlargement of bones is referred to as

Paget disease

All Characteristics of scoliosis

-involvement of lateral curvature of the spine

-increase during periods of rapid growth

-identifiable by uneven shoulders or scapular prominence

-possibility of leading to respiratory complications.

The most common type of osteomyelitis is

Hematogenous

The most common symptom of multiple myeloma is

Bone pain

Primary brain injury

Occurs during the initial insult and results from displacement of the physical structures of the brain

One Stroke Sequelae involves Broca aphasia….what happens here T/F

Stroke affecting the left middle cerebral artery (MCA), one of the most important arteries supplying blood to the brain, can cause damage to Broca's area and lead to Broca's aphasia. Language

In this type of fracture, the fragments of the bone are displaced below the level of the bone surface.

Impacted

The brain can localize a pain sensation to a particular part of the body because nociceptor pathways are kept in specific anatomic order in the cord (sensory dermatome) and somatosensory cortex.
