mucus in nose and ears
1 LOD for respiratory system - cilia in bronchi
- cough reflex
cilia gone because of smoking
1 LOD respiratory system stressors
- cough reflex gone bc of head injury
- saliva
- stomach pH

- gag reflex
- good microbes and defecation
- Sjogrens syndrome dries up mouth
1 LOD for GI stressors that can breach
- antibiotics in stomach changes bowel

1 LOD Urinary stressors


, NURS 3366 PATHO EXAM 2

- decreased urine flow like kidney stones,
kidney failure
- vaginal pH changes
1. Tissue irritation, then
1st LOD is breached, 2 LOD is activated 2. Mast Cell degranulates
detail the first step? 3. releases histamine, leukotrienes and
proinflammatory prostaglandins
1. H.L.P release causes
2.Vasodilation and Increased Vascular
Permeability causes
1 LOD is breached, it is up to 2nd LOD. 3. SHEP is Swelling, Heat, Erythema and
2nd STEP Pain
What is the result of leukotriene,
histamine and proflammatory pros-
traglandins?




1 LOD is breached, 2nd LOD 1. Increased blood flow to site
3rd STEP 2. Neutrophils migrate to tissue
What is the result of 2nd step of vasodila- 3. Monocytes INSIDE tissue become

4th step crobes
What happens after Neutrophils and - Macrophages phagocytize and PRE-
Macrophages in tissues? SENT antigens to CD4 cells leading to
3rd LOD if needed
1. This triggers ACUTE PHASE REAC-
1st LOD is breached, 2nd LOD TANTS (2nd inflammatory reactors)
5th step 2. CRP, Complement Systemic
What happens AFTER phagocytization? Prostaglandins, Kinins ENHANCE
3. Clotting factors occur
- Opsonization (Coating bacteria)
What are some examples of functions of
- MAC complex pierce a hole in bacteria
COMPLEMENT proteins?
and blow them up with Osmosis
What are some examples of functions of
Kinins?

, NURS 3366 PATHO EXAM 2

- stimulate arachadonic acid metabolism,
catalyzing proinflammatory PG release
- enhances SHEP
- opsonization
What are some functions and IMPOR- - complement cascade trigger
TANCES of CRP? - HYPERINFLAMMATION diagnose

What happens as a result of Acute 3. opsonization, lysis
Phase reactants? 4. more pain, vasodilatin, permeability of
vessels
- hyperinflammation thats chronic; lasts
Inflammation only bad when... longer than 2 weeks
Examples? - Ex; Bacteria that cannot be opsonized
or irritants like a splinter, dust particles
1. Irritation disrupts metabolic pathway
2. Metabolic pathway disrupts, no ATP,
What is the entire concept map process 3. No atp then no energy
of 2nd LOD inflammation FOR causes 4. No energy then no NaK Pump
and moments prior? 5. Cells leaks fluids & intracellular sub-

6. Mast cell dragnulation leaks HLP
7. HLP increases inflammatory mecha-
nisms
8. SHEP leads to vasodilation,
9. Vasodilation more permeability
What is the entire concept map process 10. More permeability leads to leaked
of 2nd LOD inflammation after mast cell plasma
degranulation? 11. Leaked Plasma leads to Clotting,
Neutrophils
