-bone breaks
-blood vessels tear
-blood clots (hematoma)- tissues dialate, swell and inflame.
-After a few days/weeks, osteoblasts originating from periosteum invade hematoma and divide close to the new blood vessels, building spongy bone nearby.
-granulation tissue develops.
-Fibroblasts produce masses of fibrocartilage.
-Phagocytic cells remove blood clot and damanged cells. Osteoclasts aid in cleaning up bone fragments/debris.
-Fibrocartilage fills gap between ends of broken bones=callus (and will be replaced by bone tissue)
-Typically more bone is produced at site of healing fracture.....if broken bones are close together, healing is more rapid than far apart.
Hematoma formation, fibrocartilaginous callus formation, bony callus formation, and bone remodeling.
What else can I help you with?
What is the purpose of fracture repair?
Fracture repair is required when there is a need for restoration of the normal position and function of the broken bone. Throughout the stages of fracture healing, the bones must be held firmly in the correct position
How is fracture repair accomplished?
Fracture repair is accomplished by means of applied traction , surgery, and immobilizing affected bones.
Who performs fracture repair?
Fracture repair is usually performed by an orthopedic surgeon, general surgeon, or family physician.
What does the body do after fracture repair?
Once the procedure for fracture repair is completed, the body begins to produce new tissue to bridge the fracture site and rejoin the broken pieces
What is involved in fracture repair?
Fracture repair is the process of rejoining and realigning the ends of broken bones, usually performed by an orthopedist, general surgeon, or family doctor.
The first cast is included in fracture repair?
yes
When is the risk of infection greater after fracture repair?
Infection can interfere with bone repair. This risk is greater in the case of a compound fracture (a bone fracture causing an open wound) where ideal conditions are present for severe streptococcal and staphylococcal infections
Correct sequence for decision making process?
what is the correct sequence in the policy making process
How do you spell fracturing?
That is the correct spelling of "fracture" (to split or break).
How do you spell fractchure?
The correct spelling is "fracture" (break).
What is a surgical fracture of the bone to correct a deformity?
osteoclasis
What is the correct order of fracture repair?
The correct order of fracture repair involves four main stages: Hematoma Formation: Immediately after the fracture, blood vessels break, leading to a hematoma that stabilizes the fracture and provides a scaffold for healing. Soft Callus Formation: Within a few days, a soft callus made of collagen and cartilage forms around the fracture site, providing initial stability. Hard Callus Formation: Over several weeks, the soft callus is replaced by a hard callus of bone, as osteoblasts produce new bone tissue. Bone Remodeling: Finally, over months to years, the new bone is remodeled to restore its original shape and strength, with excess material being removed and bone density being restored.
