Repair Flashcards
Resolution
rapid healing
epithelial cells regenerate by increaing mitosis
Labile Cells
Constant turnover by mitosis
Regeneration
Growth factor released
increased mitosis
paranchymal cells
paranchymal
same function
little evidence of injury
stable cells
can resume regeneration if conditions are right
require a supportive framework
Replacement/connective tissue repair
inflammatory phase
proliferative phase
remodelling phase
lost tissue is replaced by granulation tissue matures to scar tissue
inflammatory stage
first 6-8hours vascular response cellular response phagocytosis lymphatic drainage
proliferative phase
24-48 hours
fibroblast macrophages and blood vessels proliferare to form granulation tissue
angiogenesis- leaky capilarries WBC and plama proteins leak into tissue
fibroblast secrete collagen (type III)
Re-modelling phase
3/52 to 2 yrs
Fibroblast synthesise Collagen (type I)
lysis of type III collagen by collagenase enzymes
continual remodelling of scar tissue in relation to physical stress
factors that affect wound healing
malnutrition blood flow oxygen delivery infection wound separation foreign bodies age adhesion drying of wound nature and site of injury sinus and fistula formation temperature drugs excessive movement prolonged inflammation
Complications
infection ulceration- open lessions dehiscence- separation of wound Keloid development- excessive cellulose adhesion- fibres between cavities and tissues
