1. Question
20 point(s)Fractures, dislocations and sprains: Texts
Text A
Fractures (buckle or break in the bone) often occur following direct or indirect injury, e.g. twisting, violence to bones. Clinically, fractures are either:
- closed, where the skin is intact, or
- compound, where there is a break in the overlying skin
Dislocation is where a bone is completely displaced from the joint. It often results from injuries away from the affected joint, e.g. elbow dislocation after falling on an outstretched hand.
Sprain is a partial disruption of a ligament or capsule of a joint.Text B
Simple Fracture of Limbs
Immediate management:
- Halt any external haemorrhage by pressure bandage or direct pressure
- Immobilise the affected area
- Provide pain relief
Clinical assessment:
- Obtain complete patient history, including circumstances and method of injury
– medication history – enquire about anticoagulant use, e.g. warfarin - Perform standard clinical observations. Examine and record:
– colour, warmth, movement, and sensation in hands and feet of injured limb(s) - Perform physical examination
Examine:
– all places where it is painful
– any wounds or swelling
– colour of the whole limb (especially paleness or blue colour)
– the skin over the fracture
– range of movement
– joint function above and below the injury site
Check whether:
– the limb is out of shape – compare one side with the other
– the limb is warm
– the limb (if swollen) is throbbing or getting bigger
– peripheral pulses are palpable
Management:
- Splint the site of the fracture/dislocation using a plaster backslab to reduce pain
- Elevate the limb – a sling for arm injuries, a pillow for leg injuries
- If in doubt over an injury, treat as a fracture
- Administer analgesia to patients in severe pain. If not allergic, give morphine (preferable); if allergic to morphine, use fentanyl
- Consider compartment syndrome where pain is severe and unrelieved by splinting and elevation or two doses of analgesia
- X-ray if available
Text C
Drug Therapy Protocol:
Authorised Indigenous Health Worker (IHW) must consult Medical Officer (MO) or Nurse Practitioner (NP).
Scheduled Medicines Rural & Isolated Practice Registered Nurse may proceed.Use the lower end of dose range in patients ≥70 years.
Provide Consumer Medicine Information: advise can cause nausea and vomiting, drowsiness.
Respiratory depression is rare – if it should occur, give naloxone.Text D
Technique for plaster backslab for arm fractures – use same principle for leg fractures
- Measure a length of non-compression cotton stockinette from half way up the middle finger to just below the elbow. Width should be 2–3 cm more than the width of the distal forearm.
- Wrap cotton padding over top for the full length of the stockinette — 2 layers, 50% overlap.
- Measure a length of plaster of Paris 1 cm shorter than the padding/stockinette at each end. Fold the roll in about ten layers to the same length.
- Immerse the layered plaster in a bowl of room temperature water, holding on to each end. Gently squeeze out the excess water.
- Ensure any jewellery is removed from the injured limb.
- Lightly mould the slab to the contours of the arm and hand in a neutral position.
- Do not apply pressure over bony prominences. Extra padding can be placed over bony prominences if applicable.
- Wrap crepe bandage firmly around plaster backslab.
