Wound Healing Flashcards
Wound healing is an intericate coordinate series of processes that involve?
And it leadds to the release of?
Cellular and subcellular response
Cytokines and growth factors
Acute wounds has?
Surgical traumatic, pathological, ischemic causes
Intentionally created in the operating room environment
Surgical wounds
caused by blunt or penetrating trauma result in tissue laceration, abrasion, or even tissue avulsion
Traumatic injuries
When the tissue’s normal healing process experiences a disruption or delay, a ______ wound forms.
chronic
Begins at the time of injury and lasts for 3 to 5 days.
INFLAMMATORY PHASE
Normal wound healing results in tissue regeneration and takes place in three separate but overlapping phases
Inflammation, proliferation, remodelling
Inflammatory phase begins at? And last for?
time of injury and lasts for 3 to 5 days.
What initiates the process of inflammatory phase?
Vasoconstriction
_____,_____ cause small blood vessels to constrict for initial hemostasis.
catecholamines and prostaglandins
When platelets adhere to the exposed subendothelial collagen of injured vessels with the aid of von Willebrand factor, they degranulate, releasing
adenosine triphosphate, serotonin, prostaglandins, and thromboxane A2.
Fourth or fifth day and last 2 to 3 weeks
Proliferative phase
Characterized by the ingrowth and proliferation of granulation tissue within the wound
PROLIFERATIVE PHASE
Proliferative phase start at____ day and last ___ to___ weeks
Fourthh or fifth, 2-3 weeks
Actively produce proteoglycans and collagen, with force, stress, strain, and motion directing the collagen and proteoglycan alignment
Fibroplasia
Crucial part of healing
new vasculature is required for the influx of oxygen and nutrients and the removal of metabolic waste products
Angiogenesis
Epithelialization three phases
Epithelial migration, proliferation and differentiation
Tissue remodeling finalizes the wound healing process
Characterized by an increase in wound tensile strength related to increased collagen production and breakdown
MATURATION
Begins after the third week and usually lasts 6 to 12 months
MATURATION
Maturation phase begins at the _____ week and usually last ___ to___ months
Third week, 6-12 months
