Exam 1 Healing Flashcards
microtrauma
overuse, cyclicnloading or friction injury
macrotrauma
impact or contact injury, large insult and immediate tissue disruption
things that cause inflammation
physical
chemical
ischemia
allergies
physical agents like thermal and radiation
foreign bodies like splinters
infection
nutritional
genetic
effects of inflammation
local :
redness
warmth
swelling
pain
loss of function
systemic:
malaise, fatigue, headache, anorexia, fever
Cardinal signs of inflammation
erythema
heat
edema
pain
loss of function
3 phases of healing
inflammation
proliferation
maturation
also (hemostasis)/ stabilizing prior to inflammaiton
protection phase
first 1-6 days
immediate protective response that attempts to destroy, dilute, or isolates the cells that may be at fault
Acute stage of inflammation
vascular changes
discharge
early fibroblastic activity
clinical signs:
inflammation
pain before tissue resistance
what is the vascular response to acute inflammation?
transient vasoconstriction occurs at the injured vessels
chemical mediators(histamine and serotonon) release
vasodilation and increased permeability make up the vascular response
Local swelling due to increase permability
pain is from the increased pressure
inflammation vascular response
1.vasoconstriction
2.vasodilation
3.growth of the fibrin lattice
4.enter leukocytes
5.enter platelets (first 24-36 hrs)
inflammation chemical mediators
RELEASED FROM INFLAMMATORY CELLS OR DERIVED FROM PLASMA
histamine
platelet activating factor
cytokines
Plasma cell derived chemical mediators
blood coagulation
firbrinoclytic
complement
What forms clots?
platelets
release prothorombin start the fibrin lattice
what is the cell response to acute inflammation?
leuokcytes move to the area and remove and eliminate stimulus
hemostatic response in inflammation
platelets scab over the area
fibrin
makes a cross linked lattice to seal off whole
