Q

Serous Membrane

A

*Two layered Membrane with potential space between. 1. Parietal: Lines wall of cavities 2. Visceral: Wraps around organs *Both produce serous fluid which reduces friction between tissues & organs.

Q

Cutaneous Membrane

A

*Functions like tarp over boat
*Ex.: skin

23
Q

1st degree burns, S&S, Healing Timer, & Treatment

A

Top part of the epidermis is burned irritating nerve endings.
S&S: Painful, red, no blisters.
Healing: 3-7 days
Treatment: Cool compress & aloe vera

24
Q

Psudostratified Columnar Epithelium Function

A

Sweep debris out of lungs, goblet cells produce mucin.

25
Q

EXO means

A

Outside

26
Q

Squamous Cell Carcinoma

A

*15% of skin cancers
*too much sun exposure
*can appear red/scaly (sometimes bleeds), but doesn’t heal & go away.
*99% cure rate

27
Q

Simple squamous epithelial location

A
  • Lines inside of all blood vessels(endothelium) and heart(endocardium)
  • line walls of capillaries & responsible for feeding tissue & alveoli(air sacs of the lungs)
28
Q

3 Types of Carcinomas

A
  1. Basal Cell Carcinoma
  2. Squamous Cell Carcinoma
  3. Malignant Melanoma
29
Q

Transitional

A

Stretchy and variably shaped

30
Q

3rd degree burn treatment

A

*IV Fluids administration & increase caloric intake
*IV antibiotics
*Debridement (Removal of dead skin) wrapping wounds w/ protective covering or skin grafts.
*Many months of skin grafts & compression bandages. (keeps scar tissue thickness down) & physical/emotional therapy.

31
Q

2nd degree burns, S&S, Healing Timer, & Treatment

A

Epidermis & into the dermis
S&S: Painful, red, blisters, pealing of damaged/ dead skin days later
Healing: 7-10 days depending on how deep the burn.
Treatment: Cool compress, aloe vera, do not break blisters. (can open the skin to infection).

32
Q

A part in ABCD Method

A

ASYMMETRY (a mole should be round & not have unequal sides.)

33
Q

Simple columnar epithelium structure

A

Elongated cells, nuclei are all located near basement membrane, often have microvilli or cilia

34
Q

Endocrine

A
  • Makes product & secretes it into the matrix.
  • Capillaries come inside the gland & pickup the product
  • product is ALWAYS a hormone
35
Q

Types of Membranes

A

Cutaneous
Mucous
Serous

36
Q

Columnar

A

Column-like

37
Q

Cellularity

A

Made up of tightly packed cells

38
Q

Transitional Epithelium

A

Designed to distend & return to its normal size, as in lining of the urinary bladder.

39
Q

Simple cuboidal epithelium structure

A

Single layer of cube-shaped cells with centrally located nuclei

40
Q

B part in ABCD Method

A

BOARDER (the boarders should be smooth and not jagged.)

41
Q

Simple

A

Single layer all of the same type

42
Q

ENDO means

A

Inside

43
Q

Exocrine

A

-Secretes its products outside of itself using a duct.
EX. Of exocrine product: saliva, mucous, sweat, enzymes, etc.

44
Q

Malignant Melanoma

A

*3-5% of skin cancers (This % is growing)
*sun exposure & has a genetic link (Increase w/ tanning bed.)
*Grows down through the basement membrane & can be spread. (metastasis)
*DEADLY, survival depends on early detection.

45
Q

3rd degree burns, S&S, Healing Timer, & Treatment

A

Entire thickness of the epidermis & dermis
S&S: No pain!! Whitish or grayish color, sometimes skin slippage, & oozing of fluid.
Healing: Months to one year depending on location & percentage of body burned.
Treatment: % of body burned is determined using the “rule of nines” Critical burn & several things must be done at one time in order to help a patient survive.

46
Q

Stratified Columnar Epithelium Structure

A

Consists of several layers of columnar cells

47
Q

Carcinoma

A

Any type of cancer to the epithelial tissue (skin cancer).

48
Q

Cuboidal

A

Cube-shaped

49
Q

C part in ABCD Method

A

COLOR (Any color changes can be a sign of a pattern.)

50
Q

Simple squamous epithelial function

A

Well suited for diffusion

51
Q

Squamous

A

Flat

52
Q

4 types of tissues

A
