🔍 Key Concepts

• Types of fractures (simple/closed vs. compound/open) • Relationship between the bone and the skin in different fracture types • What happens when a wound connects the broken bone to the outside environment

💭 Think About

• Think about whether a compound fracture involves only the bone itself, or both the bone and the overlying skin. • Ask yourself: in a compound fracture, is infection risk usually higher or lower, and why? • Consider which option describes a situation where the broken bone has a pathway to the outside air.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option implies a break in the skin over the fracture site. • Eliminate any option that could also describe a closed (simple) fracture. • Check that the correct option does not claim something that is always or never true about internal bleeding.
