Break a Leg: Musculoskeletal Trauma - Call List

(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

  1. Blood supply to the bone may be disrupted, causing decreased perfusion and death of bone tissue,
    avascular necrosis
  2. occurs after minimal trauma to a bone that has been weakened by disease. For example, a patient with bone cancer or osteoporosis can easily have
    fragility fracture
  3. #1 risk factor for hip fracture
    osteoporosis
  4. top nursing intervention when managing acute compartment syndrome
    remove bulky dressing/cast/splint
  5. Realignment of the bone ends for proper healing that is accomplished by a closed (nonsurgical) method or an open (surgical) procedure
    bone reduction
  6. treatment strategies for nonunion
    electrical bone stimulation, bone grafting, ultrasound treatment
  7. pallor, pain, pulselessness, poiklothermia, pressure, paralysis, paresthesia
    acute compartment syndrome
  8. drug therapy for fractures
    opioids, non-opioid drugs, NSAIDS, regional nerve block
  9. The break is across the entire width of the bone in such a way that the bone is divided into two distinct sections
    complete fracture
  10. fracture where bone alignment is altered or disrupted, The ends of bone sections of are more likely to this fracture are more likely to damage surrounding nerves, blood vessels, and other soft tissues.
    displaced fracture
  11. dysfunction of the central and peripheral nervous systems that leads to severe, persistent pain and other symptoms.
    complex regional pain syndrome
  12. A simple fracture does not extend through the skin and therefore has no visible wound.
    closed fracture
  13. surgeon cuts through muscle to relieve pressure to treat acute compartment syndrome
    fasciotomy
  14. It is the most common complication of lower extremity surgery or trauma and the most often fatal complication
    venous thromboembolism
  15. A surgical procedure in which metal pins, screws, rods, plates, or prostheses are inserted inside the body to immobilize a fracture during healing
    internal fixation
  16. The skin surface over the broken bone is disrupted in a compound fracture, which causes an external wound.
    open fracture
  17. type of skin traction, 5-10 pounds of pulling force, not invasive
    Buck traction
  18. some of the major infections that can occur following fracture
    osteomyelitis, gangrene, tetanus, superfical wound infection, MRSA, abscess
  19. dyspnea, tachypnea, petechia rash, confusion, lethargy
    fat embolism syndrome
  20. The application of a pulling force to a part of the body to provide bone alignment or relief of muscle spasm
    traction
  21. Infection can result from impaired tissue integrity under the cast (pressure necrosis) If pressure necrosis occurs, the patient typically reports a very painful “hot spot” under the cast
    pressure necrosis
  22. screws are surgically inserted directly into bone (ex femoral condyles for distal femur fractures), 15-30 pounds of pulling force, more invasive
    skeletal traction
  23. A surgical procedure in which pins or wires are inserted through the skin and affected bone and then connected to a rigid external frame outside the body to immobilize the fracture during healing
    external fixation
  24. results from excessive strain and stress on the bone. This problem is commonly seen in recreational and professional athletes.
    stress fatigue fracture
