Acute/Chronic Healing Flashcards
cascade of acute wound healing
hemostasis
inflammation
proliferation
maturation
what is a characteristic of hemostasis
platelet aggregation and clot formation
- allows for movement of cells in and out of the wound space
fibrinolysis
timeline of inflammatory phase
begin immediately and continues for upto 25 days
what capillary changes occur in the inflammatory phase
dilation and become permeable
role of cytokines in the inflammation phase
draw neutrophils and macrophages to the wound
macrophages attract which types of cells?
cytokines
growth factors
bioactive lipids
proteolytic enzymes
how are cytokines characterized in the healing process
additive
synergistic
inhibitory
what do cytokines regulate
cell proliferation
cell migration
cell matrix synthesis
cell deposition and degradation
inflammatory response
what to cytokines come from
platelets
fibroblasts
monocytes
macrophages
endothelial cells
timeline of proliferative phase
within 3 days of injury and lasts a few weeks
what is the proliferative phase characterized by
granulation tissue formation
what cell types assists in the formation of granulation tissue
fibrin
fibronectin
collagen
proteoglycans
glycosaminoglycans
glycoproteins
when does fibroblast proliferation peak
a week post injury
role of fibroblast in proliferation
synthesize and deposit extracellular proteins
how does fibroblast proliferation occur
growth and angiogenic factors cause granulation to occur
what is a risk in the proliferative phase
dehiscence and evisceration
what is dehiscence
wound separation after being closed
what is evisceration
when organs protrude through a wound
what is epithelization
marginal basal cells detaching from the dermis and migrating across the provisional matrix on each side of a wound.
