🗑
What are the components of ground substances?   Water, GAGs, noncollagenous proteins Solid, mineralized  
🗑
What do lucanae contain?   Small spaces with osteocytes  
🗑
What is organized, cylindrical structural units, concentric lamellae, lucanae and canalicull?   Haversian Systems  
🗑
Concentric lamellae are....   Calcified rings  
🗑
Spongy bone -Trabeculae contain lacunae and canaliculi   More osteocytes  
🗑
Interstitial Lamellae are?   Bony layers that sit between Haversian canals  
🗑
What connects the haversian’s canals and contains blood, lymph?   Volkmann’s canals  
🗑
What are the main sources for blood supply?   Periosteal artery and Nutrient artery  
🗑
What enters via nutrient foramen and branches out?   Nutrient artery  
🗑
What goes through mitosis, differentiates into osteoblast and is in ther inner osteogenic layer of periosteum?   Osteoprogenitor cells  
🗑
Whatare osteoblasts involved in?   Collagen synthesis and bone formation.  
🗑
Give some information on osteocytes   They are surrounded by extracellular matrix, located in lucanae, and connect to creat a highly vascular environment.  
🗑
Osteoclasts break down and what else do they do?   Deossification, located in bony marrow and Howship's lacunae-absorption of dead bones.  
🗑
What is the relationship between osteoblasts and osteoclasts?   Normally equal, maintain and aid in fracture (Fx) healing  
🗑
bone regeneration and repair means...   converting tissue into bone, also known as ossification or osteogenesis.  
🗑
What does ORIF stand for?   Open Reduction Internal Fixation  
🗑
What are the stages of bone regeneration and repair?   Hematoma formation and Inflammation Cellular proliferation and Callus formation Remodeling  
🗑
Secondary bone healing vs. primary bone healing   Secondary-natural bone healing-casted immobilized  
🗑
Hemotoma formation   Each bony end creates a hemotoma and likes to spread to healthy bone and develops within a few hours after fracture  
🗑
What does a fracture hematoma do?   Bleeds a lot, is located at the bone ends and may extend into surrounding areas.  
🗑
What is the absence of osteocytes from lacunae? (Death @ fracture site)   Necrosis  
🗑
Replicate bone is also known as? Structural framework   Regeneration environment  
🗑
Fracture hematoma:   create granulation tissue  
🗑
Fibrocartilaginous callus leads to:   increased strength leads to bony matrix  
🗑
Mineralization   stage 2: depositing of calcium and phosphorous  
🗑
Divides into 3 phases   Early, intermediate, late  
🗑
Early repair phase   needs a stimulus>disruption of periosteum  
🗑
Proliferation of osteogenic cells   stronger callus does not form for a few days  
🗑
Osteoprogenitor cells travel to the fx site   Osteoblasts and condroblasts (lay down cartilage)  
🗑
Osteoblasts are....   Stimulus for proliferation and Extends out from primary fx site  
🗑
Pluripotent cells function is to?   Turn into a cell that is needed  
🗑
What is involved in intermediate repair phase?   Formation of granulation tissue and fibrocartilaginous callus, Proliferation of osteoblasts,Granulation Tissue  
🗑
Endothelial budding   Branching out of capillaries  
🗑
What contains cortex, osteogenic cells, endothelial budding, fibrocarilaginous callus is replaced, begins @ sides of Fx site, visible callus formation via x-ray?   External Callus  
🗑
When is the callus formation visible in an x-ray?   After 14 days  
🗑
the internal Callus consists of...   Cancellous bone, osteogenic cells and bridges between the bone ends  
🗑
What describes the hardening of callus, does not have movement between bony ends and the fracture line is still present?   Clinical Union  
🗑
What happens in the late repair phase?   Ossification, mineral deposits and solid bony union. (between 14 and 30 days)  
🗑
During mineralization the soft cancellous bone hardens, bone density is increased and ____   The woven bone is replaced with primary bone  
🗑
During primary bone formation the excess callus is absorbed, the medullary cavity is reastablished and the Haversian system is restored.   Osteoclasts create medullary cavity and the osteoblasts are in the Haversian system  
🗑
What are the time factors that affect fracture healing?   Amount damaged Cell death Displacement Size of bone Blood supply Approximation of sites Age Nutrition  
🗑
What is another word for set?   Reduce  
🗑
what is the duration of remodeling ?   6-24 weeks  
🗑
What is involved in remodeling?   Resumes normal size, structure, and shape Begins with stability Osteoclastic activity Organization of trabecular structure Osteoclasts and osteoblast  
🗑
