Diploma Paramedic First Year: Trauma - Mechanism of injury Crossword

An increase in the velocity of a moving object
____________Trauma is defined as an injury produced by the wounding forces of compression and change in speed, both of which disrupt tissue
A temporary or permanent opening produced by a force that pushes body tissues laterally away from the track of a projectile
A decrease in the velocity of a moving object
This phase of trauma refers to the trauma event
The process of predict injury patterns that can result from the forces and motions of energy
____________trauma is defined as an injury produced by crushing and stretching forces of a penetrating object that results in some form of tissue disruption
The phase of trauma where emergency care is delivered to injured patients
The phase of trauma that refers to the prevention of intentional trauma deaths
A specialized ____________ hospital distinguished by the immediate availability of specialize personnel, equipment, and services to treat most severe and critical injuries
__________ of energy law states that energy can not be created nor destroyed, it changes form
Newtons _________ law states that an object whether at rest or in motion, remains in that state unless acted upon by an outside force
Newtons _________ law of motion states that F=M*a or F=M*d
________ energy is energy of motion. KE=1/2m*v2
_____________ impact is a head on collision of two vehicles resulting in the abrupt stopping of forward motion
______________ impact is when the vehicle is struck from the side
A vehicle is struck from the rear
Impact occurs when an off center portion of the vehicle strikes an immovable object
The collisions causes the occupants to tumble inside the vehicle
a restraint that is worn above the anterior iliac spine and protects the abdominal cavity by transferring the energy to the stronger bony pelvis
this device cushions the forward motion of the occupant when used with a lap and shoulder belt
The _____________ effect is when a occupant inside the vehicle takes a deep breathe and holds it when anticipating danger. The increased lung pressure causes alveolar rupture when the chest wall strikes the steering column
_____________________ blast injury results from the sudden change in environmental pressure. Injures usually occur in gas containing organs
___________________ blast injuries usually result when bystanders are struck from flying debris
_____________ blast injuries occur when the victim is propelled through space by an explosion, and then strike a stationary object.
____________________ blast injuries are all explosion related injuries, illnesses or diseases that are not caused by primary, secondary or tertiary mechanisms
_____________ fracture occur when a falling victim leans forward or tries to break his fall with out stretched hands.
is an opening produced by a force that pushes body tissues laterally away from the tract of a projectile
Bending
Stretching out
Movement of a structure about its axis
The decrease in a dimension of a body under the action of two external forces directed toward one another in the same straight line
