    Study Notes

    Cirugía Plástica

    • Banco de cirugía plástica: pequeño y sencillo

    Cicatrización de la Herida

    • Fase inflamatoria (hemostasia, inflamación): 1-3 días • Fase proliferativa (granulación, proliferación de fibroblastos): 4-14 días • Fase de maduración (reorganización del colágeno, contracción de la cicatriz): 2-12 años • Fibroblastos especializados en la fase de contracción de maduración

    Clasificación de Heridas

    • Herida limpia contaminada: tiene una baja posibilidad de infección (ej., apendicitis aguda) • Herida sucia contaminada: tiene una alta posibilidad de infección (ej., perforación del colon)

    Manejo de Heridas

    • Cierre inmediato: sutura o afrontamiento • Cierre por segunda intención: cicatrización espontánea • Cierre por tercera intención: cierre tardío

    Procesos de Cicatrización

    • Limpia contaminada: apendicitis, cirugía gastrointestinal • Sucia contaminada: perforación del colon, heridas traumáticas

    Sutura de Anastomosis

    • Bordes invertidos y puntos separados • No se recomiendan puntos continuos • Técnicas de sutura: Lambert, Lembert, et al.

    Materiales de Sutura

    • Reabsorbibles: PGA, PLA, Poliglicólico, Polioxanona (180 días) • No reabsorbibles: Nylon, Polipropileno, Lino, Seda, Acero

    Factores de Riesgo de Infección Quirúrgica

    • Mala preparación de la piel • Contaminación de la herida • Falta de profilaxis • Cirugía prolongada

    Heridas por Avulsión y Desgarro

    • Herida abusiva: exposición de tejidos celulares subcutáneos • Herida por avulsión: desgarro de tejidos • Herida por abrasión: rasguño de la piel • Herida cortante o laceración: corte por objetos filosos### Burns and Wound Care

    • A burn is classified as superficial (1st degree), partial thickness (2nd degree), or full thickness (3rd degree) based on the depth of tissue damage.
    • 2nd-degree burns are further classified as superficial or deep, depending on the extent of dermal damage.
    • 3rd-degree burns involve the hypodermis and may lead to compartment syndrome.
    • 4th-degree burns involve muscle, bone, or other deeper tissues.

    Classification of Burns

    • Rule of Nines: a method for estimating the percentage of body surface area affected by a burn.
    • Each arm is 9% of the body surface area, each leg is 18%, the front and back of the torso are 18% each, and the head and neck are 9%.
    • For the face, 1/3 is 3% of the body surface area.

    Quemadura por Agua Hervida (Burn from Boiling Water)

    • A 60-year-old man suffers burns from boiling water on his arm.
    • The burn is deep and circular, with a high risk of compartment syndrome.
    • To avoid compartment syndrome, the pressure must be released, not by removing the crust, but by making incisions to relieve the pressure.

    Rehidratación (Rehydration)

    • The Parkland Formula is used to calculate the amount of fluid needed for rehydration.
    • The formula is: 4 mL/kg/% of burned body surface area.

    Regla de los Nueve (Rule of Nines)

    • Used to estimate the percentage of body surface area affected by a burn.
    • Each arm is 9% of the body surface area, each leg is 18%, the front and back of the torso are 18% each, and the head and neck are 9%.

    Injertos (Grafts)

    • There are two types of grafts: xenografts (from another species, such as pig skin) and autografts (from the same person).
    • Xenografts are used as a temporary measure to protect the wound and promote healing.
    • Autografts are the definitive treatment and involve transplanting the person's own skin to the affected area.

    Mecanismo Fundamental (Fundamental Mechanism)

    • The fundamental mechanism of auto-grafting is the formation of vascular connections to ensure the graft's survival.

    Initial Management of Burns

    • The initial priority is to secure the airway, as burns can cause respiratory distress.
    • Fluid resuscitation is crucial to prevent hypovolemic shock.
    • Hidratación (hydration) is achieved through crystalloid solutions, such as saline.
    • Colloids may be used later, but crystalloids are the first line of treatment.

    Shock Hipovolémico (Hypovolemic Shock)

    • A life-threatening condition that occurs when the body loses too much blood or fluid.
    • It is a common complication of burns.
    • Treatment involves aggressive fluid resuscitation with crystalloid solutions.

    Plastic Surgery

    • A small and simple bank of plastic surgery is available.

    Wound Healing

    • The wound healing process consists of three phases:
      • Inflammatory phase (hemostasis, inflammation): 1-3 days
      • Proliferative phase (granulation, proliferation of fibroblasts): 4-14 days
      • Maturation phase (reorganization of collagen, contraction of the scar): 2-12 years
    • Specialized fibroblasts are involved in the contraction phase of maturation.

    Wound Classification

    • Clean-contaminated wounds have a low risk of infection (e.g., acute appendicitis)
    • Dirty-contaminated wounds have a high risk of infection (e.g., colon perforation)

    Wound Management

    • Immediate closure: suturing or apposition
    • Delayed closure by secondary intention: spontaneous healing
    • Delayed closure by tertiary intention: late closure

    Wound Healing Processes

    • Clean-contaminated wounds: appendicitis, gastrointestinal surgery
    • Dirty-contaminated wounds: colon perforation, traumatic wounds

    Anastomosis Suture

    • Inverted edges and separate points are recommended
    • Continuous points are not recommended
    • Techniques include Lambert, Lembert, and others.

    Suture Materials

    • Reabsorbable materials: PGA, PLA, Poliglicolic, Polioxanona (180 days)
    • Non-reabsorbable materials: Nylon, Polypropylene, Linen, Silk, Steel

    Risk Factors for Surgical Infection

    • Poor skin preparation
    • Wound contamination
    • Lack of prophylaxis
    • Prolonged surgery

    Avulsion and Laceration Wounds

    • Avulsion wounds: exposure of subcutaneous cellular tissues
    • Avulsion wounds: tearing of tissues
    • Abrasion wounds: skin scraping
    • Cutting wounds or lacerations: cuts from sharp objects

    Burns and Wound Care

    • Burns are classified as superficial (1st degree), partial thickness (2nd degree), or full thickness (3rd degree) based on tissue damage depth.
    • 2nd-degree burns are further classified as superficial or deep based on dermal damage extent.
    • 3rd-degree burns involve the hypodermis and may lead to compartment syndrome.
    • 4th-degree burns involve muscle, bone, or other deeper tissues.

    Classification of Burns

    • Rule of Nines: a method for estimating the percentage of body surface area affected by a burn.
    • Each arm is 9% of the body surface area, each leg is 18%, the front and back of the torso are 18% each, and the head and neck are 9%.
    • For the face, 1/3 is 3% of the body surface area.

    Burns from Boiling Water

    • A 60-year-old man suffers deep and circular burns from boiling water on his arm.
