25
It fuses the nail plate and the skin of the finger together to form a waterproof barrier
cuticle / eponychium
26
The cuticle is also called the
eponychium
27
It is under the free edge of the nail. It also creates a waterproof barrier, fusing the skin of the finger to the underside of the nail plate.
Hyponychium
28
Simply those that have curled down or around and are growing into the skin.
Ingrown nail
29
Ingrown nails may become
e swollen and inflamed
30
They are sweat glands. About 2 million are distributed over the surface of the body, more numerous on the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, forehead, and axillae or underarms
Sudoriferous glands
31
Sweat glands produce
sweat / perspiration
32
It also rids the body of waste through the pores of the skin.
Sweat
33
The average person loses approximately _______ of fluid through sweating each day.
1/2 liter
34
one of the most important element in the process of scar formation, while epidermal and endothelial cells exert synergistic effects as well.
Fibroblast
35
in the process of scar formation, _____________ & ____________ ______ exert synergistic effects as well
epidermal and endothelial cells
36
A deep, thick layer of skin
Dermis
37
form when the dermis is damaged.
Scars
38
a naturally occurring protein in the body
collagen
39
The body forms new collagen fibers to mend the damage, resulting in a
scar
40
usually composed of fibrous tissue. It may be formed for many different reasons, including as a result of infections, surgery, injuries, or inflammation of tissue.
scar
41
A scar may appear
flat, lumpy, sunken, or colored.
42
When a person has an injury, the body responds by repairing the damaged tissue, which creates
scar tissue.
43
a collection of cells and collagen that covers the site of the injury. People can develop scar tissue on their skin as the result of an injury, surgery, or acne
scar tissue.
44
As part of the healing process, specialized cells called ____________ in adjacent areas of skin →produce a fibrous connective tissue made up of collagen. The bundles formed by these whitish inelastic fibres make up the bulk of the scar tissue.
fibroblasts
45
3 STAGES OF TISSUE REPAIR
* inflammation * proliferation * maturation
46
three main stages of inflammation
Acute * Sub-acute * Chronic
47
swelling stage of inflammation
Acute
48
regenerative stage.
sub-acute
49
scar tissue maturation and remodelling stage
Chronic
50
Inflammation is characterized by five cardinal signs:
* rubor (redness) * calor (increased heat) * tumor (swelling) * dolor (pain) * functio laesa (loss of function)
51
redness
Rubor

Dolor
55
Loss of function
Funcia laesa
56
→If the fluids are not adequately restored
burn shock develops
57
PATHOPHYSIOLOGICAL CHANGES
Inflammation, * hypermetabolism, * muscle wasting, and * insulin resistance
58
Bacterial infection→ may lead to a bloodstream infection
sepsis
59
Fluid loss, including low blood volume
hypovolemia
60
Dangerously low body temperature
hypothermia
61
Complications of deep or widespread burns can include:
Sepsis Hypovolemia Hypothermia Breathing Problems from intake of smoke
62
It affect only the epidermis, or outer layer of skin. The burn site is red, painful, dry, and with no blisters.
First-degree burn
63
Example of 1st degree burns is
Mild sunburn
64
are more severe than first-degree burns. They affect the outer layer of skin, called the DERMIS
Second-degree burns
65
Second-degree burns is also known as
partial thickness burns
66
affect the epidermis and the dermis, lower layer of skin. They cause pain, redness, swelling, and blistering
Second-degree burns
67
It go through the dermis and affect deeper tissues. They result in white or blackened, charred skin that may be numb
Third-degree burns (full thickness burns)
68
Third-degree burns is also knwon as
full thickness burns
69
It destroy the epidermis and dermis. They may go into the innermost layer of skin, the subcutaneous tissue. The burn site may look white or blackened and charred.
* Third-degree (full thickness) burns
70
additionally involves injury to deeper tissues, such as muscle, tendons, or bone. The burn is often black and frequently leads to loss of the burned part. Burns are generally preventable. Treatment depends on the severity of the burn.
fourth-degree burn
71
penetrate the muscle and begin to burn bone;
fifth degree burns
72
the most severe burns which have charred bone.
sixth degree burns
