ANSWER: Wound OPEN

what is it called when there is no opening of skin or mucous membrane (exp blunt trauma pressure) -
ANSWER: Wound CLOSED

a clean separation of skin and tissue with smooth even edges - ANSWER: Incision

a separation of skin and tissue in which the edges are torn and separated and irregular - ANSWER:
Laceration

a wound in which the surface layers are scraped away - ANSWER: Abrasion

stripping away of large areas of skin and underlying tissue, leaving cartilage and bone exposed -
ANSWER: Avulsion

a shallow crater in which skin or mucous membranes is missing - ANSWER: Ulceration

this is an opening of skin, underlying tissue, or mucosus membrane caused by a narrow sharp pointed
object - ANSWER: Puncture

This is an injury to soft tissue underlying the skin from the force of contact with a hard object,
sometimes called a bruise. - ANSWER: Contusion (Closed Wounds)

What are the three phases of Wound Repair - ANSWER: 1. Inflammation
2. Proliferation
3. Remodeling

what is the physiologic defense immediately after tissue injury, last approximately 2-5 days -
ANSWER: Inflammation

What is the purpose of inflammation - ANSWER: 1. Limit the local damage
2. Remove injured cells and debris
3. Prepare the wound for healing

what is the inflammatory response in the first wave of Wound Repair - ANSWER: Local changes occur;
blood vessels constrict (control blood loss), then dilate, Platelets form loose clot to control bleeding,
Damaged cells become more permeable, releasing plasma and chemical substances

Signs and symptoms of infection of wound include? - ANSWER: Swelling, Redness, Warmth, Pain,
Decreased function

what is the Second Wave of Defense inflammation - ANSWER: -Leukocytes and Macrophages (white
blood cells) migrate to site of injury

cell duplication Scar formation replacement of damaged cells with fibrous tissue acts as non
functioning patch - ANSWER: Regeneration

replacement of damaged cells with a fibrous tissue, act as non functioning patch - ANSWER: Scar
Formation

years) - ANSWER: Remodeling Phase 3 of Wound Repair

what does the wound do during remodeling phase 3 - ANSWER: Wound contracts Scar shrinks; scar is
stronger, but not as strong as original tissue

what affects wound Healing ? - ANSWER: -Type of wound injury
- Expanse or depth of wound
- Quality of circulation
- Amount of wound debris
- Presence of infection
- Status of the patient's health
- excessive pulling or tension on edges

what does the speed of wound healing depends on? - ANSWER: if wound repair takes place and
extent of scar tissue that forms

what is the key to wound healing? - ANSWER: Adequate blood flow to the injured tissue

what are the types of wound healing? - ANSWER: First intention, Second intention, Third intention
