What are the last two carpal bones to ossify? 7 Trapezoid 8 Pisiform
Can you tell a young child's age by the number of tarsal bones they have? No, only works with carpal bones
What three components make up the true pelvis? Pelvic inlet, pelvic outlet, and pelvic cavity
How does the pubic angle vary between males and female? <90° for males >90° for females
ORIF is an acronym which stands for... Open Reduction with Internal Fixation
When would closed reduction be used on fractures? On simple/closed fractures in which the bone can be realigned and immobilized through the skin without surgical intervention
