stiner- wound healing Flashcards
epidermis has how many layers? which layer is responsible for cell division
5, Stratum basale (germinativum)
epidermis characteristics
not vascularized,
karatinized/nonkaratinized
which skin layer is vasularized?
dermis
intact endothelial surfaces are ______
antithrombotic
what is thrombosis
formation of blood clot inside blood vessel
2 vasodilators and platelet inhibitors?
NO
prostacyclin
Prostacyclin does what
decrease thromboxane
decrease PDGF
thromboxane does what
platelet aggregation, vasoconstrictor too
PDGF does what
platelet adhesion to vessel walls
what does NO do?
inhibits platelet recruitment and adhesion
break in skin causes what
hemostasis
what is hemostasis?
process that causes bleeding to stop
3 phases of wound healing
inflammtion phase
proliferation phase
remodeling and maturation phase
3 parts of inflammation phase
intial injury and vascular response
blood coagulation
inflammation
after initial injury endothelial cells secrete what
von Hillebrand factor
seratonin
thromboxane
hemostasis steps
- vasoconstriction
- temporary blockage by platelet plug
- blood coagulation/ clot formation
what is Hemorrhaging
bleeding
clot formation is a result of ______ converted to _____
fibrinogen to fibrin
vasoconstriction, an immediate response, is done by _____ and ______ , decreasing blood flow
prostaglandins, thromboxanes- released from damaged membranes (rational behind applying pressure)
platelet plug forms as platelets attached to what
exposed collagen
activated platelets release what? and what do they do
cytokins. stimulate recruitment of more platelets and vasoconstriction.
20 minutes post-wound what happens and by what
vasodilation by histamine
histamine aids in what
blood vessels become leaky, easier for leukocytes to infiltrate.
coagulation happens how long after blood vessel injury?
almost instant
