wound - Answer ✔✔-break in the continuity of body structure, caused by
violence, trauma, or surgery to tissue bodies
ex; of acute wounds - Answer ✔✔-surgical incisions, traumatic wounds,
lacerations, burns
ex; of chronic wounds - Answer ✔✔-PI, diabetic ulcers, malignant
acute wound - Answer ✔✔-wound that proceeds through an orderly & timely
reparative process --> sustained restoration of anatomical & functional integrity
,phases of wound healing - Answer ✔✔-1) inflammatory phase
2) proliferative phase
3) remodelling phase
what's a part of the proliferative phase? - Answer ✔✔-proliferation, granulation
& contraction
what happens during inflammatory phase? - Answer ✔✔-1) hemostasis.
(vasoconstriction)
2) platelets + fibrin forms, clot formation
3) histamina, vasodilation, increased capillary permeability, erythema, swelling
& warmth
what happens day 1-3 inflammatory phase? - Answer ✔✔-neutrophils released
to injury site, phagocytosis of debris beings.
what happens during day 3-24 of proliferative phase? - Answer ✔✔-1)
granulation tissue appears in wound
2) contraction of wound edges
3) resurfacing by epithelialization --> dermal regen.
,4) vascular bed reestablished
what happens during day 24-2 yrs of remodelling phase? - Answer ✔✔-1)
collagen fibers reorganize & remodel
2) permanent scar
3) attains 80% of original strength
Primary intention healing - Answer ✔✔-wound that is closed by suture or
wound closers & healing occurs by collagen synthesis; lower risk of infection,
and heals quickly w/ minimal scarring.
secondary intention healing - Answer ✔✔-wound edges are not approximated.
heals by granulation tissue formation, wound contraction & epithelialization.
has a prolonged phase of inflammation due to increased time needed for
phagocytosis of necrotic tissue.
tertiary intention healing - Answer ✔✔-wound is left open for several days as it
could be contaminated. has an increased risk of infection, so closure of wound is
done later until risk of infection is resolved.
why is the wound kept open for tertiary healing? - Answer ✔✔-to allow exudate
to drain, prevent the spread of deep infection & aiding granulation.
, medical asepsis - Answer ✔✔-aka, *clean technique*.
includes procedures used to reduce & prevent the spread of microorganisms
ex; of medical asepsis - Answer ✔✔-hand washing, clean gloves, cleaning
environment routinely.
ex; of surgical asepsis - Answer ✔✔-aka *surgical technique*. requires
more stringent techniques, *eliminating all microorganisms*.
when do you use surgical asepsis? - Answer ✔✔-when a patient's kin is broken,
or if the nurse performs an invasive procedure in a body cavity that is normally
free of microorganisms.
ex; of surgical asepsis procedures - Answer ✔✔-- protective clothing
- opening sterile packages
- sterile field
- pouring sterile solns
- surgical hand scrub
- gowning & gloving
