The appearance of injury depends upon the: mechanism of the applied force, location of the actual injury, shape texture and pattern of the impacting object, and the physiological status of the individual.
Question 1:
Knowing the mechanism of injury can determine method of care for the victims as well as corroborate or discredit accounts of an injury.
Question 2:
Birthmarks such as Mongolian spots or port wine stains look deceptively like bruising.
Question 3:
MATCH THE ITEM WITH THE APPROPRIATE DESCRIPTION
Question 4:
Crush injury = ?
Abrasions = ?
Contusions = ?
Penetration wounds = ?
Incisions = ?
Blunt force trauma = ?
Hematomas=?
Gunshot wounds = ?
Lacerations = ?
Puncture wounds = ?
Through-and-through = ?
occurs when an object comes in contact with a surface
caused by a clean, sharp-edged object
irregular tear-like wounds caused by some blunt trauma
caused by a sliding fall onto a rough surface
caused by an object puncturing the skin
caused by an object such as a knife entering and coming out from the skin
caused by a bullet or similar projectile driving into or through the body
two wounds, one at the site of entry and one at the site of exit
caused by a blunt force trauma that damages tissue under the skin
caused by damage to a blood vessel that in turn causes blood to collect under the skin
caused by a great or extreme amount of force applied over a long period of time
