Some include trainers for sports, teachers, coaches, and many different types of physicians. They all do different things, but in general focus on the human anatomy and help to solve acute injuries and problems. It is important for each one to distinguish between different injuries, and where they are on the patient's body, and it may take different sports med professionals to treat a certain injury or situation. ]]> 2019-10-17 19:27:14 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399241604 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399242709 Universal precautions include putting a barrier between you and the patient, for safety as well as hygiene. Calling 911, making sure the scene is safe before taking action.These are all important in order to ensure that there is less risk of further injury and providing optimal care to the victim or patient. ]]> 2019-10-17 19:29:37 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399242709 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399243301 My taping definitely needs work, but hopefully, through experience, I can improve (and actually learn to rip off the tape on the first few tries!)I do know how to do CPR and to treat certain skin injuries. In order to control blood, you must leave whatever is in the wound in there if you can in order to prevent further bleeding. Otherwise, apply pressure to the wound in order to prevent bleeding out. Splinting and bracing allows for a bone to remain in a certain position in order for it to heal properly, and it requires a stiff platform taped or slinged against the injured appendage. ]]> 2019-10-17 19:30:33 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399243301 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399244013 I learned how to identify a problem a person may have, for example if they are choking, there would be little to no sound escaping as they hold their throat. Or if it's an injury to their skin, I'm pretty sure I'd be able to see it or they would express their pain. I would also be able to identify that it is a heart or breathing problem if someone collapsed and became unconscious. ]]> 2019-10-17 19:32:13 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399244013 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399244625 I know that I first must recognize the problem, (cardiac arrest), make sure the scene is safe, then call for help (911 or another person) and make sure the person is in the proper position to receive CPR. Then the EMS crew can take over once they get there. Working on the mannequins definitely helped me understand the process much more and get a feel for what I actually need to do. It's hard to visualize what you need to do to help someone when you've never done it before, so I believe that experience was much needed. ]]> 2019-10-17 19:33:51 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399244625 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399245891 I understand the different cuts and scrapes a person can get, what dislocation is when someone's broken a limb or other bone, etc. This includes when to know when there is an infection in someone's wound, or how to respond to the person and their pain (or lack of!)It is also essential to know how to clean a wound and prevent potential infection from occurring, especially depending on the environment. ]]> 2019-10-17 19:36:47 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399245891 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399246131 I know the differences between the different bone fractures such as greenstick fracture, transverse, oblique, etc. I also know (mostly) the difference between the different skin injuries such as abrasion, laceration, etc. ]]> 2019-10-17 19:37:18 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/399246131 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/422555257 In the shoulder, which includes the scapula, humerus, and clavicle, there are many functions. The shoulder also contains the soft tissues named supraspinatus, subscapularis, infraspinatus, and teres minor. Together, these parts of the shoulder allow for different movements. These movements include adduction and abduction, as well as flexion and extension. In a typical human, a healthy angle for adduction of the arm is 30 degrees. Abduction is 150 degrees. Extension is 50, and flexion is 150. ]]> 2019-12-11 04:09:12 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/422555257 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/422557610 The knee has a few bones associated with its function, this includes the femur, the patella, the tibia, and the fibula. The femur is superior to the patella and the tibia and the fibula are inferior to the patella. There are also many soft tissues that work with the knee, such as the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), lateral collateral ligament (LCL), and medial collateral ligament (MCL). As for tendons, there are quadricep tendons, hamstring tendons, patellar tendon, and a synovial membrane. All of these make it possible for the knee to perform flexion and extension. Flexion in humans is normally 150 degrees. Extension is (hopefully) 0. ]]> 2019-12-11 04:24:41 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/422557610 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/422557626 The bones in the ankle contain the tibia, fibula, talus, lateral malleolus, calcaneus, and some other bones more associated with the actual foot. The soft tissue in an ankle contains the posterior talofibular ligament, anterior talofibular ligament, and the calcaneofibular ligament. These bones and tissues allow for the foot to perform dorsal flexion, plantar extension, inversion, and eversion. Typical flexion is about 20 degrees, extension is 40, inversion is 30, and eversion is 20. Thanks to these bones and tissues, we can walk with balance and precision! ]]> 2019-12-11 04:24:50 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/422557626 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/422557642 I am now able to identify the different kinds of joints (hinge, ball and socket, saddle, condyloid, pivot, and plane) and what they do for our body's movement. Hinge joints allow for flexion and extension. Ball and socket joints allow for flexion-extension, abduction-adduction, and circumduction. Saddle joints allow for flexion-extension, abduction-adduction, and circumduction, but they do not allow axial rotation like ball and socket joints do. Condyloid joints also allow for flexion, extension, adduction, abduction, and circumduction. Pivot joints allow for pronation and supination, also known as rotation. And finally, plane joints allow for gliding, but not much other movement.  ]]> 2019-12-11 04:24:59 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/422557642 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/424743099 The three planes of movement in the human body are as follows: sagittal, transverse, and coronal/frontal. A sagittal plane cuts the body into left and right halves. A transverse plane cuts the body into top and bottom halves. A coronal/frontal plane cuts the body into front and back halves. These planes help identify parts of the body or where an injury or area of concern may be on a patient/victim. ]]> 2019-12-16 20:31:45 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/424743099 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/424745999 There are many different names for the areas of the body, but generally I understand where most of them are. For example, buccal refers to the cheek area. Brachial refers to the upper arm. Femoral is near the femur/thigh/upper leg, and so on. It can also refer to parts of the body internally, such as abdomen referring to stomach, and everything near that such as intestines. ]]> 2019-12-16 20:38:25 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/424745999 203417 https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/424748279 The Appendicular skeleton is the part of the skeleton that includes the limbs and appendages. This includes the shoulder girdle as well as the pelvic girdle. In class, we have gone over every general bone in the arms and legs, and I am able to identify them when given a blank sheet. The shoulder girdle consists of the clavicle, scapula, and humerus, which is the upper arm bone. Then the lower arm bone consists of the ulna and radius, and then the carpals and metacarpals, and the finger bones known as phalanges. In the pelvic girdle is the ilium, ischium, pubis, and more. The femur is the thigh bone, and below that is the patella, the knee bone. The lower leg bones are the fibula and tibia, and the ankle and foot contain many different bones that include but are not limited to the tarsals, metatarsals, phalanges, cuboid, calcaneus, and cuneiforms. ]]> 2019-12-16 20:43:45 UTC https://padlet.com/203417/euawr23qmelg/wish/424748279
