Stages of wound healing (4)
0- hemostasis 1- inflammation 2- proliferation 3- remodeling
45
Hemostasis phase of wound healing what occurs
- vasoconstriction | - platelet aggregation, granulation, fibrin formation
46
Inflammation phase of wound healing what occurs
- neutrophil/monocyte/lymphocyte migrate to the wound site | - CHRONIC WOUNDS get stuck in this phase
47
Proliferation phase of wound healing what occurs
regrowth of epithelium - angiogenesis - collagen formation by myofibroblasts
48
Remodeling phase of wound healing what occurs
- deposition of matrix - collagen remodeling - vascular maturity/regression
