Midterm Review Flashcards
Stages of Healing
- Inflammatory Response phase
- 3-4 days - Fibroblastic Repair phase
- 4 days -6 weeks - Maturation and Remodeling phase
- 2-3 years
Factors that can effect healing
○ Extent of injury
○ Edema
○ Hemorrhage
○ Poor Vascular Supply
○ Separation of Tissue
○ Muscle Spasm
○ Atrophy
○ Foreign bodies
○ Corticosteroids
○ Keloid & Hypertrophic Scars
○ Infection
○ Climate
○ Health, Age, and Nutrition
○ Inappropriate Care*
Chronic Inflammation
= failure to heal!
- as inflammation persists necrosis and fibrosis prolong the process
- granulation and fibrotic tissue develop in highly vascular and loose CT
- due to overuse, tissue not restored to physiological state, and cause shift from acute to chronic
Tendinitis
repeated microtrauma
Treatment: Rest
can turn into tendinosis
