Questions With Complete Solutions
________ inflammation is largely functional Correct Answers
Acute
______________ + _______________ cross every disease
process Correct Answers Inflammation and Immunity
Abscess Correct Answers Collection of pus under the skin
Anaphylaxsis Correct Answers TOO MUCH histamine
Blood escapes from blood vessels so quickly, we swell, and
blood pressure drops
Airways begin to swell
Treat with epinephrine
Catastrophic inflammation is due to what? Correct Answers
Cytokines
Cellulitis Correct Answers Inflammation and infection get out
of hand and infectious agent finds it's way into the fatty tissue
THIS CAN SPREAD EASILY AND CAUSE SEPSIS
Chemotaxis Correct Answers When inflammatory mediators
are present, it activates immunity
Works hand in hand with emigration
COX-1 Correct Answers Forms the mucosal layers in the
stomach
, Protects the body from hydrochloric acid you body naturally
makes

injury to take away dead and damaged tissue to address any
infectious agents to attack any foreign substance present
Works hand in hand with chemotaxis
Exudate Correct Answers Filtered blood plasma mixed with
plasma proteins like albumin and others that pass through the
vascular endothelium
Proteins = color is cloudy
Indicates significant level of inflammation
Exudation - edema Correct Answers Inflammatory mediators
can cause significant leakiness of blood vessels and cause
increased vascular permeability
Fluid will pass through the walls of the blood vessels and begin
to flood interstitial space that has been damaged
Problem is diluted
