| Function of the musculoskeletal system responsible for blood cell production in bone marrow | Hematopoiesis |
| Soft tissue injury caused by blunt force trauma leading to bruising | Contusion |
| Soft tissue injury known as muscle pull caused by overstretching | Strain |
| Injury to ligaments caused by twisting or wrenching | Sprain |
| Type of fracture management done without surgery by manually aligning the bone | Closed reduction |
| Type of fracture management involving surgical alignment of the bone | Open reduction |
| Use of plates, screws, or rods to stabilize a fracture | Internal fixation |
| Use of an external frame outside the body to stabilize a fracture | External fixation |
| Break in the continuity of bone | Fracture |
| Fracture where the bone breaks into two or more parts | Complete fracture |
| Fracture where the bone is only partially broken | Incomplete fracture |
| Type of complete fracture where the skin remains intact | Closed fracture |
| Type of complete fracture where the bone protrudes through the skin | Open fracture |
| Fracture with multiple bone fragments | Comminuted fracture |
| Fracture that runs diagonally across the bone | Oblique fracture |
| Fracture caused by twisting motion | Spiral fracture |
| Fracture that runs straight across the bone | Transverse fracture |
| Incomplete fracture common in children where one side breaks and the other bends | Greenstick fracture |
| Bone bends without breaking | Bowing fracture |
| Small cracks in the bone caused by repeated stress | Stress fracture |
| Common symptom of fracture described as a grating sound | Crepitus |
| Warning signs of cast complications remembered by BLEPT | Blueness, Lack of pulse, Edema, Pain, Tingling |
| Type of cast that dries in 48 to 72 hours and is heavier | Plaster cast |
| Type of cast that dries in 15 to 30 minutes and is lighter | Synthetic or fiberglass cast |
| Application of steady pulling force to align bones | Traction |
| Type of traction applied to the skin using straps | Skin traction |
| Type of traction applied directly to the bone using pins | Skeletal traction |
| Common example of skin traction used for lower limb fractures | Buck’s traction |
| Principle of traction care that requires the weights to hang freely | Continuous traction |
| Diet recommended to promote healing in fracture patients | High protein diet |
| Most stable crutch gait pattern | Four-point gait |
| Crutch gait used for non-weight-bearing on one leg | Three-point gait |
| Advanced crutch gait where both crutches and legs move forward together | Swing-through gait |
| Removal of a body part, usually a limb | Amputation |
| Sensation of pain felt in the missing limb after amputation | Phantom limb pain |
