Q

It begins at time of injury and is important for preparing the wound for healing

A

Phase 1 - inflammation

17
Q

allows plasma and blood components to leak into injured area and start the clotting process

A

Vascular changes

18
Q

Neutrophils are first to arrive, macrophages will follow - enter the area of injured tissue, digest and remove invading organisms, debris and other foreign matter

A

Cellular changes

19
Q

▫️Usually begins w/n 2 to 3 days of injury and may last as long as 3 was
▫️granulation tissue is formed during this period
▫️healing by 2ndary intention

A

Phase II - proliferative phase

20
Q

Produce collagen also produce growth factors to initiate angiogenesis

A

Fibroblasts (recruited by macrophages)

21
Q

▫️consists of new blood vessels, proliferating fibroblasts, and residual inflammatory cells
▫️functions as the foundation of the scar tissue

A

Granulation tissue

22
Q

▫️Scar tissue remodels by breaking down old collagen (collagenase) and synthesizing new collagen (by fibroblasts) - increase tensile strength

A

Phase III - remodelling phase

23
Q

Injuries that heal by 2ndary intention undergo ________

A

Wound contraction
