Study Notes
Wound Healing Processes
- Granulation Tissue Healing: Wounds heal slowly by filling with granulation tissue from the bottom up, supporting tissue regeneration.
- Replacement of Damaged Tissue: The process of replacing damaged tissue with healthy new tissue is known as tissue regeneration or repair.
Inflammation Types and Characteristics
- Red Granular Tissue: A specific type of inflammation leads to the formation of red, granular, velvety, moist tissue that bleeds easily and is resistant to infection, indicating a heightened healing response.
- Identifiable Inflammation: A type of inflammation exists where the cause cannot be identified, complicating diagnosis and treatment.
Cell Types and Healing Factors
- Continuously Dividing Cells: Certain cell types, like epithelial cells, divide continually throughout life to replace damaged cells and maintain tissue integrity.
- Factors Delaying Healing: Factors such as poor blood supply or nutrient deficiencies delay wound healing and can lead to increased granulation tissue formation and scarring.
Chronic Inflammation and Granulomas
- Duration of Chronic Inflammation: Chronic inflammation can last for several weeks to years, often causing prolonged tissue damage.
- Primary Reactive Cell: Macrophages are the primary reactive cells found in granulomas, playing a key role in chronic inflammation and tissue repair.
Specific Conditions
- Tuberculosis Granulomas: Granulomas caused by tuberculosis are a specific type of chronic inflammation, indicating the organism's persistence in the body.
- Allergic Granulomas: Allergic reactions can lead to the formation of allergic granulomas, which involve an immune response to allergens.
