25
Blister
-Separation of layers of skin where a pocket of fluid forms
26
Concussion
-Traumatic brain injury resulting in a disturbance of brain functions
27
Rupture
-A complete tear or muscle, tendon, ligament
28
What is Concussion?
-Traumatic brain injury resulting in disturbance of brain function
29
Signs of Concussion?
- Possible post-traumatic seizure - Loss of Consciousness - Balance Problems
30
Symptoms of Concussion?
- Lying motionless/slow to get up - Headache dizziness - Visual Problems
31
Chronic Injuries
-Develop repeated continued stress on body
32
Stress Fracture (Hard tissue Injury)
-A tiny crack in the surface of a bone
33
Shin Splints (Soft tissue Injury)
-chronic shin pain due to inflammation of the muscles
34
Tendinosis (Soft tissue Injury)
-The detierioration of a tendon in response to overuse
35
Signs of Tendinosis?
-Limited movements
36
Symptoms of Tendinosis
-Burning/Stinging/Aching
37
What is an Intrinsic Risk Factor?
-Force inside the body
38
What is an Extrinsic Risk Factor?
-Force outside the body
39
Intrinsic Risk Factors?
- Previous injury - Age - Nutrition - Poor Preparation
40
Extrinsic Risk Factors?
- Poor Technique and Training - Incorrect clothing - Warm Up/Cool Down effectiveness
41
4 Reasons why Warm Ups are used?
1) Raising Body Temperature 2) Preparing body Physiologically 3) Preparing body Psychologically 4) Minimising risk of Injury
42
Effect of Warm Up - Raising Body Temperature?
-rise of 2-3 degrees increases enzyme activity, diffusion gradients, metabolic activity
43
Effect of Warm Up - Preparing body Physiologically?
-Increases Elasticity of Muscles, tendons, ligaments
44
Effect of Warm Up - Preparing body Psychologically?
-Mentally Performers are ready for task ahead
45
Effect of Warm Up - Minimising risk of Injury?
-Less likely to suffer strains/sprains
46
Key Features of a Warm Up?
- Lasts 20-45 Mins - Gradually increases in intensity - Pulse Raising/Stretching/Mobility
47
3 Reasons why Cool Downs are used?
1) Maintaining Heart Rate 2) Aiding removal of lactic acid 3) Aiding healing process
48
Effect of Cool Down - Maintaining Heart Rate?
-maintain blood flow and metabolic activity
49
Effect of Cool Down - Aiding removal of lactic acid
-enhancing future performances
50
Effect of Cool Down - Aiding healing process
-Helps heal
51
Key Features of a Cool Down?
- Lasts 20-30 Minutes - Gradually decreases in intensity - Several stages - moderate intensity, maintain HR
52
Debates of Warm Up and Cool Down
- has no effect on injury prevention - May reduce peak force - Reduces eccentric strength by 9%
53
What is SALTAPS
-Protocol for assessment of sporting injury
54
SALTAPS
``` STOP ASK LOOK TOUCH ACTIVE MOVEMENT PASSIVE MOVEMENT STRENGTH TESTING ```
55
What is PRICE
-Protocol for treatment of acute injuries
56
PRICE
- PROTECT - REST - ICE - COMPRESS - ELEVATE
57
What is Six R's
-Protocol for recognition of concussion
58
Six R's
- RECOGNISE - REMOVE - REFER - REST - RECOVER - RETURN
59
What is Rehabilitation?
-process of restoring full function after injury has occurred
60
3 stages of Rehabilitation?
1) Early Stage - gentle exercise 2) Mid Stage - progressive loading of connective tissues 3) Late Stage - functional exercises and drills
61
Treatment of a Simple Fracture?
- Medical Attention ASAP - PRICE - Immobilisation - NSAIDS
62
What is NSAIDS?
-medication taken to reduce inflammation temperature and pain
63
Physiotherapy?
-Physical treatment of injuries and diseases using treatment, massages
64
Treatment of a Stress Fracture?
- Medical Attention required - PRICE - Rest for 2 weeks
65
Treatment for Dislocation?
- Medical Attention ASAP - Immobilisation - PRICE
66
Treatment for Sprain?
- Medical Attention - PRICE - Exercise to strengthen
67
Treatment for Torn Cartilage?
- Medical Attention - PRICE - Physiotherapy
68
Treatment for Exercise?
- Cold Therapy | - Massage
69
Arthroscopy?
-Minimal invasive procedure to examine and repair damage within a joint
70
Massage?
-Physical therapy used for injury prevention and soft tissue injury treatment
71
Cold Therapy?
-Applying ice or cold to an injury for therapeutic effect
