Q

what is the enzyme that mediates hydroxylation?

A

prolyl hydroxylase

44
Q

why is hydroxylation needed in wound healing?

cross-links proline residues in collagen

45

which amino acid crosslinks in collagen? how often is it in the protein?

A

proline. every 3rd amino acid.

46
Q

what does proline cross linking do?

A

improves wound tensile strength

47
Q

what is scruvy?

A

vitamin C deficiency

48
Q

can tensile strength equal to pre-wound?

A

no. only 80%

49
Q

which types of collagen are predominant at which periods of wound healing?

A

days 1-2: type III

days 3-4: type I collagen

50
Q

when is type III replaced by type I collagen?

A

by 3 weeks of wound healing

51
Q

when does a wound reach max tensile strength?

A

8 weeks

52
Q

when is maximum collagen accumulation reached? what happens after that?

A

2-3 weeks. afterwards, continued cross-linking improves strength

53
Q

what does d-penicillamine do?

A

inhibits collagen cross-linking

54
Q

what are the essentials for wound healing?

A

moist environment, oxygen delivery, avoid edema, remove necrotic tissue

55
Q

how is oxygen delivery to wound maximized?

A

optimize fluids, no smoking, pain control, arterial revascularization, supplemental O2

56
Q

what should transcutaneous oxygen measurement be to maximize wound healing?

A

TCOM > 25mmhg

57
Q

what are impediments to wound healing?

A

bacteria, devitalized tissue, foreign bodies, cytotoxic drugs, diabetes, low albumin, steroids, wound ischemia

58
Q

how is bacteria an impediment to wound healing?

A

decreases oxygen content, collagen lysis, prolonged inflammation

59
Q

how are devitalized tissue and foreign bodies impediments to wound healing?

A

retards granulation tissue formation

60
Q

which cytotoxic drugs are impediments to wound healing and when do they impair wound healing?

A

5FU, methotrexate, cyclosporine, FK-506, etc. impair wound healing in 1st 14 days after injury

61
Q

how does diabetes contribute to poor wound healing?

A

impedes early phase inflammation response (hyperglycemia causes poor leukocyte chemotaxis)

62
Q

how low does albumin need to go before it becomes a risk factor for poor wound healing?

A

<3.0

63
Q

how much bacteria is required before it impedes wound healing?

A

> 10^5/cm^2

64
Q

how do steroids impede wound healing?

A

inhibit macrophages, PMNs, collagen synthesis by fibroblasts. decreases wound tensile strength as well

65
Q

what counteracts effects of steroids on wound healing?

A

vitamin A 25,000 IU qd

66
Q

what causes wound ischemia?

what do scars contain?

A

lots of proteoglycans, hyaluronic acid, water

do infants scar?

heal with little or no scarring

does cartilage contain blood vessels? how do they get nutrients and O2?

A

no. get nutrients and o2 by diffusion

81
Q

does denervation have any effect on wound healing?

A

no

82
Q

does chemo have any effect on wound healing?

A

not after 14 days

83
Q

who gets keloids?

A

it’s autosomal dominant; dark skinned people

84
Q

what are keloids?

A

collagen goes beyond original scar

85
Q

what is treatment for keloid?

A

who gets hypertrophic scar tissue?

A

dark skinned

87

where does hypertrophic scar tissue form?

A

flexor surfaces of upper torso

88
Q

how is hypertrophic scar tissue different from keloid?

A

in hypertrophic scar tissue, collagen stays within confines of original scar

89
Q

how do people get hypertrophic scar tissue?

A

often occurs in burns or wounds that take a long time to heal

90
Q

what is the treatment for hypertrophic scar tissue?
