NURS 280 INFLAMATION EXAM QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT VERIFIED ANSWERS
acute inflammation
Minimal and short-lasting injury to tissue
vascular permeability
allows entry of cells into tissue
cellular chemotaxis
a chemical signal from microbial agents, endothelial cells, and WBCs attracts
platelets and other WBCs to the site of injury
systemic response
immunity is not restricted to the initial infection site
histamine and bradykinin
dilate vessels
,toxins diluted
vascular permeability
WBC's phagocytize foreign matter and debris
acute inflammatory response
vasodilation and fluid extravasation into the tissue
vascular permeability
purulent exudate
Pus: indicates a bacterial infection
Transudate
The fluid component of blood that normally passes through the endothelial cell
walls of the microcirculation
abscess
localized collection of pus
, effusion
A process by which gas particles pass through a tiny opening
Cardinal signs of inflammation
heat, redness, swelling, pain, loss of function
chemical agents from WBC's, endothelial cells, microbial agents
cellular chemotaxis
Chemotaxis
Cell movement that occurs in response to chemical stimulus
Chemical signals attract WBC's and platelets
Chemotaxis
Margination
the sticking of phagocytes to blood vessels in response to cytokines at the site of
inflammation
