Document Summary
2016 international first aid guideline treatment of extremity injuries: Could cool sprained joint/soft tissue injury ice/cooling not be applied for 20min+ There is no clear evidence shown/proven to be right- rather icing will significant decrease in recovery. Fractures: disruption of continuity of bone type/size affected by loading/stress, bone health, bone size/shape, maturity can be open - break into piece -/closed - less severe. Kids are more likely to heal fast -allowing plasticity to work. Therapy, exercise for strength/function we lose lots of (cid:373)us(cid:272)le stre(cid:374)gth as we do(cid:374)"t use the (cid:271)roke(cid:374) part of the body. Treatment: reduction of joint -bringing the joint back in place. It is prone to re-occurrence of dislocation. Arches of the foot: dispersion of the force on the foot. Use of the inversion and eversion of the foot. Strong deltoid ligament: is rare to get damaged. Ankle sprains: more inversion strain than eversion strain, due to the anatomy has plantar flexion mov.
