Capstone - Burns and Sepsis Flashcards
1st degree - description, layer, clinical, associated, healing
Superficial epidermis Epidermis Red and dry Tenderness Sveral Days
2nd degree superficial partial thickness - layer, clinical, association, healing
Papillary dermis
Red, fluid filled blisters
Tenderness
2-3 weeks
2nd degree deep partial thickness - layer, clinical, associated, healing
Reticular dermis
Blanched white and pink fluid-filled blisters
Decreased sensation and no capillary refill
3-6 weeks with hypertrophic scar
3rd degree burn - description, layer, clinical, associated, healing
Full thickness Subq fat White, leathery, black and charred No sensation or capillary refill No spont healing
4th degree burn
bone and fascia exposed
Zone of coagulation
Surface coagulation necrosis - irreversible cell death
No cap blood flow
ZOne of stasis
Injured, but viable cells
Sluggish cap flow
Susceptible to hypoperfusion injury, infection
Zone of hyperemia
Inflammatory response
Vasodiliation and increased cap permeability
Pathophys of large burns
Loss of fluid and protein (heat injured capillaries and vasoactive amine increasing permeability)
Systemic inflamm response (cytokines)
Hypermetabolic response
Dysregulated immune response (suppression)_
Inflammatory phase of wound healing
Hemostasis…macrophage nad neutrophil migratrion and release of grwoth factors, collagenases, and elastases
Fibroblasts migrate into wound
Blood coagulates
Proliferative phase of wound healing
Epitheliazation - basal epidermal cells migrate laterally
Fibroplasia - fibroblast proliferation (secrete procollagen, elastin, fibronectin…form new ECM)
Angiogenesis
Create granulation tissue
Maturation phase of wound healing
Collagen remodeling through cycle of synthesis and removal
Parallel and collagne fibers
SIRS criteria
Temperature more than 38 or less than 36 HR> 90 RR> 20 PaCO2 < 32 mmHg Inflammatory response WBC greater than 12000 or less than 4000 greater than 10% band form neutrophils
Sepsis criteria
Evidence of infection
SIRS
Organ dysfunction which is
RR>22
Altered mentation
SBP<100 mmHG
Septic shock criteria
Evidence of infection
SIRS
Sepsis
Despite adequate fluid restoration attempts,
Vasopressor therapy necessary to maintain MAP>65 mm Hg
Lactate>2
