Hip Fractures Candice Murphy BIO120 Anatomy and Physiology Essentials Phase 2 Individual Project 19 April 2015 Causes of Hip Fractures The most common causes of hip fractures are: • Falls to a hard surface from a great height. • Blunt trauma to the hip‚ such as from a car crash. • Diseases such as osteoporosis‚ a condition that causes the loss of bone tissue. • Obesity (too much weight may place great pressure on the hip bones.

gaining prevalence as our population ages (Ong‚ Sahota‚ Tan & Marshall‚ 2014). Identifiable by a lower than healthy bone mass and bone tissue deterioration (Ong et al.‚ 2014; Mehler‚ Cleary & Gaudiani‚ 2011)‚ osteoporosis leads to an increased risk of fracture in those with the disease‚ which in turn leads to pain‚ fragile bones‚ high medical bills‚ a loss of independence‚ and potentially‚ a shortened life span (Aungst & Rainer‚ 2014). Thus‚ reducing the risk factors associated with osteoporosis is an

Introduction A clavicle fracture is a break in the collar bone. A clavicle fracture may happen during a difficult birth. What are the causes? A clavicle fracture occurs when a newborn’s shoulders are squeezed too tightly during delivery. The shoulders are the widest part of the newborn to come down the birth canal. Clavicle fractures may occur when the baby’s shoulder becomes wedged under the pelvic bone (shoulder dystocia). Very rarely‚ a health care provider intentionally fractures a clavicle or both

By Jonas Wilson‚ Ing. Med. Blowout Fractures Fractures that occur within the orbital bones are referred to as blowout fractures. These fractures may affect any of the orbital perimeters‚ namely the floor (i.e. inferior border)‚ the medial wall (i.e. lamina papyracea)‚ the lateral wall and the roof (i.e. superior border). The orbit houses the eyeball and serves primarily to protect our eyes and hold them in their positions. Any force to the face with enough energy and the resultant transmission

A tibial plateau fracture is a break in the bone that forms the bottom of your knee joint (tibia or shinbone). The lower end of your thighbone (femur) forms the upper surface of your knee joint. The top of the tibia has a flat‚ smooth surface (tibial plateau). This part of your shinbone is made up of softer bone than the shaft of your shinbone. If a strong force drives your femur down into your tibial plateau‚ it can cause the tibial plateau to collapse or break away at the edges. A displaced tibial

A Few Ways To Care For Your Foot Fracture A foot fracture is a fairly common injury that can happen suddenly due to a fall or accident‚ or it can happen gradually as a result of stress due to jogging or wearing the wrong kind of shoes. Fractures can be mild and require little care‚ especially if a toe is involved‚ or they can be severe enough to require surgery. No matter what kind of fracture you have‚ one of the best things you can do to help it heal is to keep weight off your foot. Here is a

Diagnosis: Right intertrochanteric femoral fracture. Postoperative Diagnosis: Same Operative procedure: Open reduction internal fixation of right intertrochanteric femoral fracture with dipwheeze sliding screw. Anesthesia: General endotracheal Indications: The patient is a 69 year old black female who fell landing on her right hip. She was seen in the Emergency Room where physical exam and x-ray revealed an intertrochanteric right femoral fracture. She was admitted to Dr. Loyd’s service

Fatigue Crack Propagation Basically‚ fatigue crack propagation can be divided into three stages: stage I (short cracks)‚ stage II (long cracks) and stage III (final fracture). • Stage I: Once initiated‚ a fatigue crack propagates along high shear stress planes (45 degrees)‚ as schematically represented in Fig. 1. This is known as stage I or the short crack growth propagation stage. The crack propagates until it is decelerated by a microstructural barrier such as a grain boundary‚ inclusions‚

Hence the constraint is to withstand a certain tensile stress before failing by fracture. σ_f=(CK_1c)/√(πa_c ) If the objective to maximize the allowable stress‚ then‚ the material indices is simply M=K_1c CES (Cambridge Engineering Selector) is utilized to plot a diagram of fracture toughness vs. Young’s modulus.
