  1. so this session is around tendon, bursar and skin injuries.
  2. Now it's much shorter than the muscle injuries.
  3. One. So it shouldn't take you as long as that
  4. one eso I will expect the muscle want to have
  5. taken probably an hour and an hour and a half.
  6. This one, probably half on hour, will be sufficient.
  7. And there's good reason to for focusing on the muscle
  8. injuries, because they are more prevalent in sport and exercise.
  9. So we're going to examine tender bursts and skin injuries
  10. again, including causes symptoms classifications on dhe using academic literature
  11. to support work.
  12. So for tendons, I have focused on Achilles tendon rupture,
  13. So there are around about 4000 tendons in the human
  14. body, varying in size.
  15. The Achilles tendon is by far the largest, Um, can
  16. therefore sustain a large amount of force.
  17. But rupture can occur.
  18. Eso again, with dynamic movements most likely rapid changes in
  19. direction. Uh huh, Achilles tendon rupture is one off a
  20. red. One of two really good examples of purely kind
  21. of intrinsic injuries in that they're not very often caused
  22. by a third party or an object is very much
  23. the the individual changing direction or pushing off jumping, that
  24. sort of thing.
  25. So I'd like you to spend some time watching the
  26. video that goes through the Achilles tendon injury on.
  27. Then there's also another video on their around diagnosis.
  28. So in the UK, they will use the and the
  29. test the test, um, here.
  30. But they'll also they will use a memorize guns as
  31. well, or X ray scans toe.
  32. Have a look.
  33. So, yes, spend some time watching that video as well
  34. on then, eh?
  35. So we'll do some evidence based practice.
  36. So, using the article by China Towel evaluate the most
  37. common mechanism for Achilles tendon injury.
  38. So within the article gives, you lose the statistics.
  39. It looks a different sports where the prevalence levels are
  40. on there as well, which you might find interesting, but
  41. perhaps a generic overview.
  42. Or think of some specific examples.
  43. Um, and you might even be able to find examples
  44. of famous athletes that have sustained Achilles tendon injuries.
  45. So we move on and have a look at bursa
  46. injuries on Dhe.
  47. It is more common for bursitis to be chronic chronic
  48. condition, but it is possible to damage the bursa, joining
  49. acute injury So for now, we'll focus on the acute
  50. bursitis so we can see from that picture signs and
  51. symptoms you could see that great, big, fluid filled kind
  52. of sack has escaped, um, into the just under the
  53. skin. So it's very obvious that something is not right
  54. around that elbow.
  55. I'd like you thio to think about how its core.
  56. So what can cause acute?
  57. Bursitis? Eso again?
  58. I've put some research on the paddle wall, and then
  59. you can just summarize how acute bursitis is caused.
  60. Please on.
  61. Finally, I'll have a look of injuries to skin, so
  62. those who have done first aid qualifications might be familiar
  63. with some of these terms.
  64. Eso there are used and think about treating them.
  65. Eso. It's the the same thing, really, Andi.
  66. So for have a look at the types eso amputation
  67. is possible.
  68. Hopefully not, but that that can happen.
  69. So you think about like your health and safety points.
  70. So that person they might not have had removed all
  71. their jewelry abortion, so that's tearing something away from where
  72. it once waas.
  73. So that's an avulsion of the skin crush injury Porcher.
  74. So that's something where it's penetrated abrasion with normally call
  75. like a graze eso.
  76. That's quite likely.
  77. You can also be that things like a burn conf
  78. form part of that.
  79. Certainly, I think some of the old fashioned kind of
  80. astroturf pictures burns were quite common thing with a few
  81. slid along those, um, and then laceration so you can
  82. have a laceration, which is sort of jagged.
  83. But you could also have an incision, so that would
  84. be sharpened and straight lined as well, eh?
  85. So there's some of the potential injuries.
  86. If we think about spot, it's highly unlikely that we're
  87. going to get an incision.
  88. A laceration is more common, so it wasn't on there.
  89. But what I'd like you to do is to think
  90. about examples within sport of how these injuries could occur.
  91. So just pick one on dhe, then go through exactly
  92. how these injuries might have occurred within a sport or
  93. exercise example and upload them to the palate war.
  94. Thank you
