Cardinal Sings of Local Inflammation - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔-
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



redness
- heat
|\ |\




- pain
|\ |\




- swelling
|\ |\




- loss of function
|\ |\ |\




vascular stage of acute inflammation - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



✔✔Comprised of increase blood flow and increased vascular |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



permeability |\




- Microcirculation (arterioles, capillaries, venules)
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\




- Process begins with:
|\ |\ |\




· Brief vasoconstriction of arterioles immediately following injury
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




· Followed by vasodilation of arterioles, capillary beds
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




· Increased permeability of microcirculation
|\ |\ |\ |\




- Vasodilation = redness and heat
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\




- Increased capillary permeability -> leaking of fluid (exudate) =
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



swelling, pain, loss of function |\ |\ |\ |\




· Acts to dilute toxins/chemicals, enhances clot formation, recruits
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



WBCs to area |\ |\




· Localizes spread of microbes
|\ |\ |\ |\




· Aided by histamine, bradykinin, prostaglandins, and other
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



chemical mediators |\

,· Fibrin helps with clotting
|\ |\ |\ |\




3 patterns for vascular changes - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔1.)
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



Immediate transient responce |\ |\




2.) Immediate sustained response
|\ |\ |\




3.) Delayed hemodynamic response
|\ |\ |\




immediate transient response - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔-After |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



minor injury |\




-Short duration (15-30 minutes)
|\ |\ |\




-reversible
-Venules


immediate sustained response - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔- after |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



serious injury |\




- continues for several days
|\ |\ |\ |\




- affects all types of blood vessels
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




delayed hemodynamic response - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔venules
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



and capillaries |\




Cellular Stage of Acute Inflammation - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



✔✔endothelial cell activation |\ |\ |\




1. Margination (accumulation of WBCs), adhesion of WBCs to
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



endothelium
2. Transmigration of WBCs across endothelium
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\

, 3. Chemotaxis (cell migration)
|\ |\ |\




4. Activation and phagocytosis
|\ |\ |\




Serous exudate - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔watery, plasma fluid, low
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



in protein
|\ |\




Hemorrhagic exudate - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔severe bleeding or |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



loss of blood plasma
|\ |\ |\




RBCs


fibrinous exudate - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔fibrinogen, thick &
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



sticky


Membranous or Pseudomembranous exudates - CORRECT |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



ANSWERS ✔✔develop on mucous membrane surfaces and are
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



composed of necrotic cells, fibrin and purulent exudate
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




acute inflammation - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔- rapid onset
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




- shorter duration
|\ |\




- fluid, plasma proteins
|\ |\ |\




- Vascular stage = brief vasoconstriction then vasodilatation,
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



increased permeability, blood flow, clotting |\ |\ |\ |\




- Phagocytosis by neutrophils
|\ |\ |\




chronic inflammation - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔- slower insidious
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



onset
