  1. Mechanisms Soft Tissue Trauma

  2. Critical Thinking • A baseball player slides into home base, severely scraping the skin on the left side of his thigh. What is the force and type of injury produced? • A shortstop is hit in the shin by a batted ball that took a bad hop. What is the force and type of injury sustained by this athlete?

  3. Purpose • Provide foundation for: • Identification • Understanding • Management of sports injuries.

  4. 3 Primary Tissue Stresses • Tension: force that pulls or stretches tissue • Compression: crushes tissue • Shearing: moves across the parallel organization of the tissue.

  5. Contractile Part of the muscle: Muscle Tendon Bony insertion Non Contractile Skin Joint capsules ligaments, Fascia Cartilage Dura mater Nerve roots Contractile vs Non Contractile

  6. Your skin • First defense to infection and or disease • water proof • trauma is visually exposed and is called a wound • non-contractile

  7. Friction Blister: • Moi: continuous rubbing. • S/S: fluid, bubble

  8. Skin Bruise • MOI: blow, crushing • S/S: bleeding

  9. Abrasion • MOI: scraping against rough surface. • S/S: skin is torn away or reddened

  10. Laceration • MOI: tearing • S/S: irregularly torn

  11. Skin Avulsion • MOI: tearing • S/S: tissue is completely ripped from source

  12. Incision MOI: cutting S/S: skin has been sharply cut

  13. Puncture Wound • MOI: compression • S/S: penetration of skin by sharp object

  14. In review • What are some different Soft tissue mechanical forces?
