What are the four stages of wound healing?
Hemostasis
Inflammatory Phase
Proliferative Phase
Remodeling Phase
What is hemostasis?
Purpose is to stop bleeding, immediately after trauma
What is inflammatory phase?
Purpose is to destroy bacteria and remove debris
* Specialized cells remove debris
* Growth factors and immune system cells present
* Inflammation, heat, pain
* Lasts for 4-6 days
What is proliferative phase?
Granulation tissue fills wound bed with connective tissue and new
blood vessels form
* Wound margins contract
* Wound is covered by epithelial tissue until wound is covered
* Fibroblasts at work
* Lasts 4-24 days
What is the remodeling phase?
Collagen fibers reorganize and remodel and mature
* Lasts up to 2 year
How long is each phase of wound healing?
Hemostasis- immediately
Inflammatory- immediately, 4-6 days
proliferative- 4-24 days
remodeling- up to 2 years
How does collagen and elastin change?
with age, smoking, or sun exposure
What is fascicle?
bundle of muscle fibers
What is endomysium?
Fibril meshwork surrounding
muscle fiber (fascicle); transfers contractile force to
tendon
What is a muscle fiber?
individual cell in a muscle
What units do muscle fibers have?
motor unit
What determines if a muscle fiber will contract?
All or nothing signal
how is the strength of a movement determined?
The number of motor units used
What are myofibrils?
The contractile proteins
What are sarcomeres?
The contractile unit of muscle
What is the process of a muscle contraction?
When is the muscle the strongest?
many actin and myosin fibers are connected but not overlapped- partially contracted
What are the different muscle fiber orientations?
Multipennate
Bippennate
Unipennate
Fusiform
