1. How is inflammation related to
the immunse system? The body's reaction to injury, irritation, or infection charac-
terized by redness, swelling, warmth, and/or pain; caused
by accumulation of immune cells and substances around
the injury (inflammation) or infection
2. Fill in the blank:
-vasodilation
Inflammation involves several -white blood cells
processes that are triggered by
the release of chemical me-
diators that lead to , in-
creased vascular permeability,
and movement of

3. INFLAMMATION-FILL IN THE
BLANK: -inflammatory response
-protection
· An is often directly linked
to the activities of the immune
system, demonstrating an over-
lap and interplay of physiologic

4. INFLAMMATION: 1. restoration of normal functioning cells following injury
2. fibrous repair when functional cells cannot be restored
Waht are the two primary

5. What are some differences that -Maturity: unable to mount a significant response - more
influence the effects of inflam- susceptible to infection
mation on children as compared -Structural ditterences in airway: - smaller, if inflammation
to an adult? occurs, increased risk for obstruction; fewer alveoli for gas
exchange
-Kidneys: GFR and decreased ability to concentrate urine
in infancy - not able to compensate for fluctuations in fluid
balance/volume and they are already at a greater risk for
dehydration
-GI System: inflammation can lead to a decrease in ab-
sorption of nutrients - their peristalsis is already faster than
that of an adult decreasing absorption of nutrients
