Back
first intention healing
Front
method of healing in which wound edges are surgically approximated and integumentary continuity is restored without granulation
Back
granulation tissue
Front
the tissue that normally forms during the healing of a wound. connective tissue with small blood vessels
Back
postural drainage
Front
different positions drain different segments of the lungs
each position assumed for 5-15 minutes for 2-4 x daily
best results in the morning and 45-60 min before meals
Back
inflammatory stage
Front
Immediately after injury for 4 days
Systemic vasoconstriction
platelet aggregation, clumping
formation of fibrin needed for clotting
phagocytosis
Back
purpose of inflammation
Front
Neutralize and destroy harmful agents
Limit spread to other tissues
Prepare damage tissues for repair
Back
healing process
Front
leukocytes remove debris from site, granulation tissue moves in, soft/reddish, shrinks and becomes taut, hard/red, white/glossy to form a scar
Back
COX-2 inhibitors
Front
blocks the COX-2 enzyme thought to play a role in arthritis pain. Celebrex
Back
Hypoxia
Front
Low oxygen saturation of the body, not enough oxygen in the blood
Back
Third intention healing
Front
method of healing in which surgical approximation of wound edges is delayed and integumentary continuity is restored by opposing areas of granulation
Back
Ischemia
Front
lack of oxygen to cells
Back
second intention healing
Front
method of healing in which wound edges are not surgically approximated and integumentary continuity is restored by the process known as granulation
Back
adjuvant analgesics
Front
Not regarded As analgesics but have proven to be effective in managing pain or in conjunction with pain meds.
Includes anti convulsants, antidepressants, stimulants, muscle relaxants
Back
proliferation stage
Front
macrophages continue to clean wound
collagen forms
Back
neuropathic pain
Front
pain from damage to neurons of either the peripheral or central nervous system
