What is the 3 main phases of healing?
1. Inflammation phase 2. Proliferation phase 3. Maturation phase
What is inflammmation phase? last?
It's the first phase of healing. prepares the wound for healing Lasts 1-6 days from injury
What is proliferation phase? last?
Second phase of healing. rebuilds the damaged structures and strengthenes the wound Lasts 3-20 days from injury
What is the maturation phase? how long does it last? timeline applies?
3rd phase of healing modifies the scar tissues into its mature form, 9 on (1-2 years) This timeline does not apply to every injury because more factors could affect the healing process ex) size, nutrition, medications, other infections etc.
Major events in inflammation phse?
1.vasoconstriction 2. vasodilation 3. clot formation 4. phagocytosis
Major events in proliferation phase?
1.epitheliaziation 2. fibroplasias/ collagen production 3. wound contracture 4. neovascularization
Major events in maturation phase?
1. Synthesis/ lysis balance, 2. Collagen fiber orientation, 3. Healed injury
What is the Primary purpose of inflammation?
It's an immediate protective response attempt to destroy dilute or isolate the cells or agents that may be at fault.
Cardinal signs of inflammation (English and Latin) and give the cause of each.
Heat Calor Increase vascularity swelling Tumor blockage of lymphatic drainage pain Dolar physical pressure of chemical irritation of pain sensitive redness Rubor increase vascularity
English : loss of function
Latin : factio laesa pian and swelling
Explain the affects of vasoactive mediators
Increase vascular permeablity, edema
Chemotactic factors
Recruitment/ stimulation of inflammatory cells, acute inflammation PMSs, platelets; chronic inflammation - macrophages, lymphocytes, plasmas cells
Platelets and the coagulation system?
Thrombus formation, vasoactive mediators (vascular permeability)
What is Role of neutrophils?
Predominate and release a number of factors that amplify the platelet aggregation response, initiate a coagulation cascade or act as chemoattractants for cells involved in the inflammatory phase.
Macrophages
Replace neutrophils after 2 days from injury
