UPDATE QUESTIONS AND CORRECT VERIFIED
ANSWERS ALREADY GRADED A+
hypertrophic scar - ANS-Thicken, wide, raised scar due to over production of collagen; E.g.,
surgical incision
Keloid - ANS-Irregular-shaped, grossly & progressively elevated scar that grows beyond
boundary of wound
abcess - ANS-Collection of pus in a localized area of tissue surrounded by inflammation
denuded - ANS-Loss of epidermis due to exposure to urine, feces, body fluids, wound exudate
or friction. Superficial erosions.
maceration - ANS-- Softening and breaking down of the skin due to prolong exposure to
moisture. Appears whiter or lighter in color than the skin next to it; often appears water-
logged
callus - ANS-Thickening of the epidermis in response to friction or pressure
granulation - ANS-- New vascular tissue in a wound healing by secondary intention that
appears beefy red, velvety and cobblestone appearance.
hypergranulation - ANS-Overgrowth of granulation tissue that is often appears pale or deep
red, boggy, and friable (bleeds easily).
, Epithilialization - ANS-Process of epithelial cells migrating from wound margin or from hair
follicles to complete wound healing causing a pink to lavender color.
slough - ANS-Non-viable tissue that is soft, moist, that can vary in color (white, yellow, tan,
gray, or green), may be loose or firmly adherent.
eschar - ANS-Black or brown non-viable tissue, can be loose or firmly adherent, hard, soft, or
soggy.
epibole - ANS-Rolled under edges, premature closure, often in a longstanding wound. Contact
inhibition- wound thinks it is closed.
How often does epidermal turnover occur? - ANS-Every 26-42 days
Epidermal Cells: Keratinocytes - ANS-Produce keratin, make of 80% of the epidermis
Epidermal Cells: Melanocytes - ANS-Determine the color of the skin
Epidermal Cells: Langerhans Cells - ANS-Assist with skin immune system
Epidermal Cells: Merkel Cells - ANS-Provide tactile reception, produce nerve growth factor
Rete Ridges/Pegs - ANS-Fingerlike extensions that anchor the epidermis to the dermis
Skin pH - ANS-4.5-6.5
