1 FRACTURES SPRAINS & DISLOCATIONS

2 TYPE OF FRACTURE 2 CLOSED FRACTURES OPEN FRACTURES
THE BONE DOESN’T BREAK THE SKIN A CRACK OR A COMPLETE SEPARATION OF THE BONE OPEN FRACTURES THE BONE PUNCTURES THE SKIN

3 COMMINUTED (Open or Closed)
cont. 3 COMMINUTED (Open or Closed) A BONE BROKEN IN 2 OR MORE PLACES (same bone) MULTIPLE FRACTURES TWO OR MORE BONES BROKEN IN THE BODY (different bones)

4 OBJECTIVE OF TREATING . A FRACTURE 4
KEEP THE BROKEN BONE ENDS & ADJACENT JOINTS IMMOBILIZED

5 SIGNS & SYMPTOMS 5 SWELLING TENDERNESS DEFORMITY BRUISING

6 cont. 6 GRATING EXPOSED BONE HEAR SNAP/CRACK PAIN SPECIFIC SPOT

7 FIRST AID SPLINT TO IMMOBILIZE ELEVATE TREAT FOR SHOCK CHECK PULSE SKIN & FINGER COLOR

8 DON’T STRAIGHTEN SPLINT AS FOUND MIGHT DAMAGE TISSUE COLD APPLICATIONS
cont. 8 DON’T STRAIGHTEN SPLINT AS FOUND MIGHT DAMAGE TISSUE COLD APPLICATIONS

9 OPEN FRACTURES FIRST . AID 9
CONTROL BLEEDING DRESS & BANDAGE THEN SPLINT POSSIBLY USE PRESSURE POINT EXPOSED BONE ENDS NO PRESSURE ON BONE ENDS

10 SPRAINS SOFT TISSUE HYPER-EXTEND STRETCHING TEARING

11 JOINT TISSUE LIGAMENTS TENDONS CARTILAGE

12 FIRST AID FOR SPRAINS 11 ELEVATE ICE NO DIRECT CONTACT WITH SKIN
20-30 MINUTES IF LONGER MAY CAUSE INCREASED CIRCULATION

13 NO ELASTIC WRAPS REMOVE 3-5 MINUTES CONTINUE FOR 24-48 HOURS
IF STILL SWELLING CONTINUE ICE SWELLING STOPS USE HEAT & COLD NO ELASTIC WRAPS

14 STRAIN MUSCLE INJURY STRETCHING OR TEARING OF THE MUSCLE FIBERS

15 FIRST AID FOR STRAINS 14 MILD STRAIN SEVERE STRAIN MOIST HEAT SWELLING
BLEEDING TREAT SAME AS SPRAIN

16 DISLOCATIONS 15 A DISPLACEMENT OF THE BONE ENDS FROM A JOINT
DON’T MANIPULATE A DISLOCATION

17 FIRST AID SPLINT COLD ICE WRAPPED IN A TOWEL CHECK PULSE
