Composed of layers of stratified epithelium cells these cells fuse to form protective waterproof layer of keratin material these cells have no blood vessels and depend on underlying tissues for nourishment and waste removal it regenerates quickly and easy

Answer 124

Framework of you elastic connective tissue nerves hair follicles glands and blood vessels are located in the slayer each hair consist of a shaft which Pro jacks through the dermis beyond the surface of the skin and hair follicle.

Answer 125

The underlying layer that anchors the skin layers to the underlying tissues of the body may consist of adipose tissue and connective tissue it's stores fat for energy insulates the body and print Fides cushioning it contains blood and lymph vessels and nerves and fat cells

Answer 126

Protection temperature regulation psychosocial and sensation vitamin D production immunologic absorption and elimination Mucous membranes align body cavities and they are also in the digestive tract respiratory passages and and urinary and reproductive tracks epithelial covers the mucous membrane surfaces and contains cells that secrete mucus the mucous membranes have receptors seizing and coughing are protective mechanisms that help rid of a foreign materials they also function to absorb substances from their surface

Answer 127

Normal healthy skin and mucous membranes serve as the first line of defense against harmful agents resistance to injury of the skin varies among people factors including resistance include the age amount of underlying tissues and illness conditions the body needs to be nourished and hydrated so the cells are resistant adequate circulation is also necessary

Answer 128

In young kids the skin is thinner weaker An infant skin and mucous membranes are injured easily and are subject to infection as the child grows the skin becomes increasingly resistant to injury an infection in older adults they have thin easily damaged skin circulation and collagen formation are impaired decrease elasticity

Answer 129

Very thin and very obese people are more susceptible to skin irritation and injury fluid loss through fever vomiting or diarrhea makes people do you hydrated more and the skin more loose and flabby excessive moisture such as perspiration predisposes the skin to break down especially with incontinence jaundice is itchy and dry and more likely to scratch their skin eczema or any disease of the skin can cause lesions

Answer 130

Break or disruption in the normal integrity of the skin and tissues that disruption may range from small to third-degree burn they may result from mechanical forces or physical injury

Answer 131

Intentional our plans such as invasive therapy or treatment the wound edges are clean and bleeding is usually controlled it was made under sterile conditions and infection is decreased unintentional wounds are by accident the edges are jagged bleeding is uncontrolled and they are at high risk for infection

Answer 132

And open occurs from intentional trauma the skin surface is broken and has a portal of entry. There is a delay in bleeding tissue damage and infection closed ones are from a blow force or strain this service is not broken but soft tissue is damaged and in ternal injury or hemorrhage may occur

Answer 133

A cute usually heal within days two weeks the wound edges meet close to the skin surface and are not as much of a risk for infection they usually move through the healing process without difficulty chronic one the healing process is delayed the risk of infection is increased they remain in the inflammatory phase of healing

Answer 134

Homostasis: occurs immediately after the injury blood vessels constrict and blood clotting begins through platelet activation and clustering then They dilate and capillary permeability increases allowing plasma and blood components to leak out into the area forming exudate- debrise and white blood cells and bacteria , the accumulation of this causes swelling and pain. Increase perfusion results in heat and redness if they want a small declot loses fluid and a scab is formed platelets also release substances that stimulate other cells to migrate to the area

Answer 135

It lasts about 4 to 6 days white blood cells such as leukocytes and macrophages moved to the area leukocytes arrive first and ingest bacteria and cellular debris's then 24 hours later macrophages and her they are essential to the healing process they ingesta breeze and release growth factors that are necessary for growth of epithelial cells and new blood vessels the growth factors attracts fibroblast that fill in the wound acute inflammation pain heat and redness are common mild temperature increased white blood cells and not feeling good is also common

Answer 136

The final stage begins about three weeks after injury and can continue for longer collagen that was deposited is remodeled making it stronger and more like the tissue around it new college and continues to be deposited which compresses the blood vessels so that it turns into a scar scar tissue is less elastic and less strong One is a hero by secondary intention take longer to remodel and for my scar smaller

Answer 137

Visa card directly in the wound thank would pressure desiccation which is dehydration maceration witches overhydration drama Adema infection excessive bleeding necrosis which is death of tissue in the presence of a biofilm a thick grouping of micro organisms.

Answer 138

Age the major skin layers arise from different embryologic origins resulting in Port Huron is between the epidermis and dermis this loose finding causes layers to separate easily during an inflammation process epidermal stripping is the unintentional removal of epidermis with tape Circulation and oxygen adequate blood flow to deliver nutrients and oxygen and remove local toxins bacteria is essential for healing Healing also requires adequate proteins carbs fats vitamins and minerals calories and proteins are necessary to rebuild thousand tissue vitamins a and C are essential for epithelialization and collagen synthesis zinc plays a role in proliferation of cells Corticosteroid drugs require post operative radiation therapy and are at risk for delayed healing it also decreases the inflammatory process radiation depresses bone marrow function. Which decreases leukocytes and increase risk for infection chemotherapeutic agents and paren or stop proliferation of all growing self antibiotic therapy increases risk for secondary or superinfection

Answer 139

Results when the immune system fails to control the growth of microorganisms symptoms usually become apparent 2 to 7 days after the injury drainage increased drainage pain redness and swelling and increased body temperature in increased white blood cell count. Delayed healing and discoloration of granulation tissue and chronic wounds pain and delayed healing may be the only symptom it can lead to Osseo Molite us a bone infection or sepsis presence of pathogenic organisms in the blood or tissues

Answer 140

Can be from infection or he Rosian of a blood vessel by foreign body like a drain check during the first 48 hours and no less than every eight hours after if excessive bleeding does occur additional pressure dressings or packing fluid replacement and surgical intervention internal hemorrhage causes the formation of a hematoma or blood clot if the bleeding leads to a large accumulation of blood I can put pressure on surrounding vessels and cause tissue ischemia which is deficiency of blood to an area

Answer 141

The most serious post operative complications dehiscence is the partial or total separation of one players as a result of excessive stress on ones that are not healed evisceration is the most serious complication of dehiscent's the wound completely separate with protrusion of this garage through the incisional area obese and mount nourish smokers anticoagulants or infected wounds excessive coughing vomiting or straining increases the chance for this. Increase in flow of fluid from balloons and postoperative days for in five can be a sign if it does occur cover it with sterile towels moisten with 0.9% sodium chloride solution and notify Dr. once it occurs the wound is likely to open if it is in the abdominal area it is a medical emergency. Place the patient in Fowler's position and cover the exposed contents

Answer 142

Abnormal passage from an internal organ are vessel to the outside of the body or from one internal organ or vessel to another they may be created purposefully but is often the result of an infection that has developed into an abscess the accumulation of fluid applies pressure to surrounding tissues leading to the formation of an unnatural passage increases risk for delayed healing infection and balances and breakdown

Answer 143

A runes with a localized area of injury to the skin or underlying tissue can be acute or chronic because this pressure most developed one soft tissue is compressed between a bony prominence and an external surface for a long time or one soft tissue undergoes pressure in combination with sheer or friction

Answer 144

What vessel collapse caused by pressure then necrosis occurs external pressure and friction and sharing that Taryn and your blood vessels and abrade the top layer of skin Major predisposing factor is external pressure which leads to a chignon deficiency of blood in a particular area hypoxia which is an adequate amount of oxygen Adema inflammation and necrosis

Answer 145

Occurs when two services rub against each other the injury resembles an abrasion it can damage superficial blood vessels directly under the skin a patient who lives on recalled sheets is likely to sustain this type of friction disk and over the elbows in heels is often injured due to this when patients lift themselves up friction burns can also occur on the back when patients are pulled her slid over sheets

Answer 146

Results when one layer of tissue slides over another layer sheer separates the skin from underlying tissues the small blood vessel's and capillaries in the area are stretched and possibly torn resulting in decreased circulation patients who are pulled are more at risk or when they are sitting operate and slide down

Answer 147

The first indication is blanching which pale and white this ischemia makes the skin a more paler where the circulation is in adequate when pressure is relieved it is followed by hyperemia which is rabbiting the body floods the area with blood to nourish and remove Wastes. Reactive hyperemia is not a pressure ulcer it should fade between 60 and 90 minutes if the pressure continues after ichemia occurs a pressure ulcer develops Deep tissue injury is purple or maroon with a localized area of discolored intact skin or blood filled blister Stage 1: intact with a non-blanchable redness of a localized area usually over a bony prominence Stage 2: partial thickness loss of dermis a shallow open ulcer Stage 3: Full thickness tissue loss subcutaneous fat maybe visible but not bone tendon or muscle sloth may be present can be undermined and tunneled Stage 4: Full thickness tissue loss with exposed bone tendon or muscle swath or eschar maybe present

Answer 148

Serous drainage is primarily clear this theorist portion of the blood and from serious membranes it is clear and watery Sanguineous drainage consist of large numbers of red blood cells and looks like blood bright red drainages indicate of a fresh bleeding or darker drainage indicates older bleeding Serosanguineous : mixture of serum and red blood cells it is light pink Purulent : is made up of white blood cells liquefied dead tissue and both dad and live bacterium it is thick has a foul odor and berries and color such as yellow or green
