microvascular system changes to accommodate the movement of plasma protein
from the blood into the tissues. Following this increase in vascular permeability,
plasma fluids (including proteins and solutes) leak into the inflamed tissues, producing
swelling. Leukocytes migrate through the endothelium and accumulate in the tissue at
the site of the injury. The pain that occurs is attributed to the pressure of fluids or
swelling on nerve endings and to the irritation of nerve endings by chemical
mediators released at the site. Bradykinin is one of the chemical mediators suspected
of causing pain. Loss of function is most likely related to the pain and swelling;
however, the exact mechanism is not completely known.

Local warmth and redness result. Next, the structure of the

Therefore, at the beginning of the 21st century, those involved in family
nursing incorporated a




infection. An infectious agent is only one of several agents that may trigger an
inflammatory response. Regardless of the cause, a general sequence of events occurs
in the local inflammatory response. This sequence involves changes in the
microcirculation, including vasodilation, increased vascular permeability, and
leukocytic cellular infiltration (see Fig. 6-5). As these changes take place, five cardinal
signs of inflammation are produced: redness, warmth, swelling, pain, and loss of
function.

subsides and healing takes place with the return of normal or near-normal structure
and function.

Inflammation is categorized primarily by its duration and the type of
exudate produced. It is most often acute or chronic. Acute inflammation is




emotion dominated. Life is rule bound, and thinking is usually dualistic (things and
people are black and white, good or bad, smart or stupid). A situation cannot be
perceived from any but a personal perspective. The person tends to "fuse" or become
enmeshed with another in emotional relationships, losing the self in the efforts to
please the other. Families with moderately differentiated members exhibit rigid
patterns of interactions that are rule bound and have defined roles and acceptable
behaviors.
