#Wednesday, Time for #Review! 🤓 Medical Emergencies | For the NBDHE + NDHCE + WREB + CDCA Dental Hygiene Board Exams 🤓 Q: How can you control a hematoma? (A). Apply heat for 20 minutes (B). Apply ice for 2 minutes (C). Alternate ice and heat (D). All the above 📌 First of all, what is a hematoma? A hematoma is the outflow of blood into extravascular spaces. In dentistry, a hematoma can occur when the needle damages blood vessels during an injection. The density of the tissue dictates how the hematoma develops – if the tissue is dense, the spread will be limited; if the tissue is loose, the spread will be more severe. The most important information you should know for the Dental Hygiene Board Exams includes: 📌 A hematoma can cause trismus, swelling, pain, and discoloration of the skin (turning it a blue/purple hue). 📌 When swelling occurs, apply direct pressure and ice for at least 2 minutes to stop the bleeding. 📌 Heat should be avoided the first day as vasodilation can spread the blood to surrounding areas. However, heat can be applied the next day so vasodilation can help with the blood resorption. 📌 A hematoma usually resolves on its own within 7-14 days. 🧠👀 Answer: (B). Apply ice for 2 minutes 🔎 While we’re at it, let’s review a condition that needs the opposite treatment – warm compressions. Have you heard of trismus? It is the inability to open the mouth fully due to spasms of the jaw muscles. Trismus can be caused by: 📌 Prolonged opening of the jaw 📌 Dental injections if muscles are perforated 📌 Infections that spread to the tissues 🔎 To alleviate the condition, apply warm compresses and recommend muscle relaxants. In addition, tell the patient to exercise the jaw several times a day (e.g., chewing gums) or massage the area. Just like a hematoma, the condition should resolve on its own rather quickly. 🔎 WakeUp Memory Technique (WMT) 🧐 As easy this information seems, I have seen students mix up the emergency protocols for hematoma with trismus. Trismus requires heat, not ice; while hematoma requires ice. We can make sense of it by thinking about the process of vasodilation, muscle relaxation, etc. But it would also be nice to ha
