Introduction to Pathophysiology WK1 L2 Flashcards
WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF NECROSIS?
COAGULATIVE LIQUAFACTIVE CASEOUS FAT GANGRENOUS
WHAT IS COAGULATIVE NECROSIS?
PROTEIN DENATURING IN RESPONSE TO SEVERE ISCHEMIA
WHAT IS LIQUAFACTIVE NECROSIS?
RAPID RELEASE OF LARGE AMOUNTS OF LYSOSOMAL ENZYMES - CELL LIQUIFIES
WHAT IS CASEOUS NECROSIS?
CELL LOOKS CHEESE LIKE NOT COMPLETELY LIQUIFIED - ASSOCIATED WITH TEBERCULOSIS
WHAT IS FAT NECROSIS?
FROM ACUTE INFLAMATION OF FAT AREAS - DAMAGED CELLS RELEASE DIGESTIVE ENZYME THAT BREAK DOWN FATTY LIPIS INTO FREE FATTY ACIDS
WHAT IS GANGRENOUS NECROSIS?
BREAKDOWN OF LARGE AMOUNTS OF TISSUES DUE TO ISCHEMIA OR SEVERE INFECTION
HOW MNAY TYPES OF GANGRENE IS THERE?
3
WHAT ARE THE TYPE F GANGERENES?
WET
DRY
GASEOUS
WHAT IS WET GANGREEN?
INFECTION FROM BURN OR TRAUMA WHICH CUTS BLOOD SUPPLY CUTTING OFF WHITE BLOOD CELLS DISOLVING TISSUE
WHAT IS DRY GANGRENE?
BLOOD SUPPLY REDUCED FROM EXTREMITIES FOR WHATEVER PURPOSE LEAVING THE TISSUE SHRINKING AND DRYING OUT
WHAT IS GASEOUS GANGRENE?
BACTERIAL INFECTION PRODUCING GAS UNDER TISSUES WHICH CAUSE BUBBLING OF THE SKIN
HOW MNAY CELLS DO WE PRDUCE AN HOUR?
AROUND 1 BILLION
HOW LONG DO RBC’S LAST FOR?
120 DAYS
WHAT HAPPENS IF RBC’S TAKE TO LONG TO APOPTOSIS?
CAN CAUSE CANCERS AND OTHER DISEASES
