Question

question 1 darcy wrecks her bike and experiences a break in the distal portion of her radius, which now projects out of her skin. which type of fracture does she have? answer open colles fracture closed spiral fracture closed potts fracture open potts fracture i dont know yet

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

An open fracture is one where the bone protrudes through the skin. A Colles' fracture is a break in the distal radius. Since the bone is protruding through the skin (open) and it's a distal - radius break, it's an open Colles' fracture. Pott's fractures involve the ankle, and a closed fracture does not have bone protruding through the skin.

Answer:

Open Colles' fracture
