Question | Answer |
---|---|
3 phases of healing | inflammatory response, fibroblastic repair, maturation - remodeling |
initial response to injury | inflammatory response |
cell injury causes altered metabolism and | release of materials that initiate the inflammatory response |
time frame for inflammatory response | initial injury to 48-72 hours |
inflammatory response characterized by what clinical signs | redness, warmth, swelling, tenderness, |
symptoms of inflammatory response | pain |
cellular things that occur during inflammatory response | cellular response, vascular reaction, chemical response, platelet plug, clot formation |
_____ adhere to exposed collagen on blood vessel endothelium, plug forms | platelets |
clot formation occurs from | conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin |
signs/symptoms associated with inflammatory events | **heat, **redness, swelling, pain, loss of function |
best two signs that inflammatory even is occuring | heat and redness |
inflammatory stage is related to ___, NOT___ | signs and symptoms, NOT time |
increased blood flow and increased metabolic rate | heat and redness |
increased vasodilation, hemorrhaging for blood vessel damage, increased osmotic pressure, blocking vessels that allow fluids to escape | swelling / edema |
tissue injury, mechanical pressure on nerves, irritation of nerves from chemical mediators | pain/tenderness |
primary tissue damage, muscle spasm, grading, decrease motion, muscle atrophy | loss of function |
______occurs when acute inflammatory response does not eliminate the injuring agent , when cell is not returned to its normal physiological state | chronic inflammation |
example of chronic inflammation | stepping on sprained ankle continuously leads to chronic inflammation |
fibroblastic repair is characterized by | scar/collagen formation |
time frame for fibroblastic repair | 48 hours to 6 weeks after injury |
during fibroblastic repair, signs and symptoms of inflammation ____ | subside |
what forms during fibroblastic repair stage | granulation tissue (healthy healing cut-pink wound bed). synthesis of collagen, elastin, and ground substance |
body responds with more scarring than necessary | keloid scarring |
fibrosis can occur with ___ | persistent inflammation |
maturation - remodeling phase is characterized by | modification and adaptation of scar/collagen tissue |
maturation - remodeling phase time frame | 3 weeks to several years |
strong scar can be present after | 3 weeks |
wolf's law | body responds to stress and strain (ex: going to gym and lifting weights makes your muscles get bigger) |
factors that affect healing | extent of injury, edema, hemorrhage, separation of tissue, muscle spasm, infection, climate, health, age, nutrition, vascular supply |
micro tear | minor tissue damage that occurs slowly over time related to prolonged stress |
macro tear | major tissue damage usually caused by acute trauma. micro tear can progress to macro tear |
hemorrhage | separation of tissue, inhibits NM control, reflex inhibition, nutrition to injured area is decreased |
complete ligamentous healing may not occur for up to | 18-24 months |
initial inflammatory phase may only last 3-4 days, but | *what you observe in terms of the cardinal signs of inflammation should dictate progress |
PRICE | protected activity, rest, ice, compression, elevation |
injury management for acute inflammation | limit swelling, decrease pain, release of pro-inflammatory chemicals, metabolism, prevent further tissue damage |
injury management for fibroblastic repair | non-thermal modalities, prevent further tissue damage while minimizing loss of function |
injury management for maturation - remodeling | increase scar strength, restore normal joint and muscle function |
