Additionally the student will have learned general and specific types of musculoskeletal injuries including fractures, sprains, and dislocations, with associated signs, symptoms, and emergency treatment including the use of splints, PASG, and traction splints. KNOWLEDGE DOMAINS: The EMT student should be able to describe the anatomy and physiology of the musculoskeletal system. Additionally you should be able to name the four mechanisms of injury and describe the different types of musculoskeletal injuries, including fractures, dislocations, amputations, sprains, and strains. The EMT should be able to recognize the characteristics of specific types of musculoskeletal injuries and be able to differentiate between open and closed fractures. You should be able to explain how to assess the severity of an injury and provide the proper emergency medical care of the patient with an orthopaedic injury and/or swollen, painful, deformed extremity (fracture). The EMT should know the general rules of, and possible complications of splinting and explain the reasons for splinting fractures, dislocations, and sprains at the scene versus transporting the patient immediately.
