Case Study On Ankle Dislocation

The acute management of lateral patella dislocation is not entirely agreed upon in the literature. Some research suggests that immobilization for a few weeks is best, while others suggest that weight bearing as soon as possible is the most beneficial (Rhee et al. 2012). It is however, agreed that some form of walking assistance, such as crutches, should be used until normal gait can be achieved (Sillanpää 2010). For a first time dislocation, it is likely that hemarthrosis, or severe swelling, of

and, furthermore, a permanent end to the life the player knew before the incident. While not all concussions are that critical, every concussion has consequences. Unfortunately, thousands of high school players face these consequences annually. Studies show that, “Some 67,000 high school football players suffer concussions every year, according to official tallies, and many more concussions go unreported” (“Farewell to Football”).

Patellar dislocation occurs when the patella slips out of the patellofemoral (trochlear) groove, most often laterally (Cheatham, Kolber, & Hanney, 2014; Enix, Sudkamp, & Scali, 2015). This can occur from direct trauma such as sudden mechanical forces exerted on the patella (Respizzi, & Cavallin, 2014; Duignan & McGibney et.al., 2016). The injury can also be the result of indirect trauma such as when the foot is fixed on the ground

This region of the body includes the hip, knee, ankle, and the bones of the thigh, leg, and foot. Most people refer to the lower extremity as the leg.

Introduction Ankle sprain injuries are most common in team sports that include contact, jumping, sharp cutting manoeuvres and running, such as football, volleyball, handball and basketball (Fong et al and Thacker et al).

According to physioroom.com, ankle sprain is the 2nd most common injury footballer players suffer from. Woods et al found that over two seasons in the English

Paramedic clinical skill demonstration As part of assessment for CSB330, students worked in small groups to demonstrate and record the correct application of ambulance equipment and perform five clinical skills. These skills were: Neann Immobilisation Extrication Jacket (NIEJ), Carbon Traction Emergency Medical Services (CT-EMS) traction splint, Pelvic Circumferential Compression Device (SAM pelvic sling), Oropharyngeal airway (OPA) and Nasopharyngeal airway (NPA) and Stiffneck cervical collar/soft

The injuries that were the most common to be treated in hospitals were sprains, strains, broken bones, and dislocations. Various injuries such as concussions, dislocations, and broken bones make up one-third of football-related injuries in the United States (“Long Term Damage”). The annual number of adolescents
