Q

inflammation stage of wound healing

A
  • blood clot forms
  • clean up debris, microbes, dead tissue
  • increased vasodilation and capillary permeability
  • inundated with neutrophils anad macrophages
20
Q

21
Q

what are the four stages of wound healing?

A
  1. inflammation
  2. migratory
  3. proliferative
  4. maturation
22
Q

what is the process of the inflammatory response in wound healing?

A

fibrin forms a clot
vasodilation and capillary permeability
neutrophils clean up debris and foreign bodies

23
Q

what is the migratory phase of wound healing?

A

basal cells move into form basal layer
fibroblasts begin to lay down collagen and glycoproteins
angiogenesis and vessel repair

24
Q

granulation tissue

A

healing wounded tissue

25
Q

what happens in the proliferative phase of wound healing?

A

growth of epithelial cells below scab

random pattern of collagen growth

26
Q

what happens in maturation phase of wound healing?

A

collagen fibers become organized
fibroblasts decrease in number
blood vessels are normal, but fewer
