Study Notes

Wound Healing Phases

Granulation tissue fills the wound slowly and may overgrow, resulting in 'proud flesh' during the proliferation phase.
Vasodilation, edema, and leukocyte diapedesis occur during the inflammation phase.
Collagen deposition and wound strengthening occur during the remodeling phase.

Tissue Repair and Remodeling

The primary function of granulation tissue is to provide a framework for tissue repair.
Angiogenesis in tissue repair and remodeling is primarily responsible for neovascularization.
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is responsible for endothelial proliferation and migration during angiogenesis.
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) recruits vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and stabilizes new blood vessels in tissue repair.

Factors Influencing Wound Healing

Excessive granulation tissue in wound healing can lead to proud flesh.
Diabetes is the main cause of abnormal wound healing.
Ischemia is the main cause of delayed healing and increased local tissue injury.
Glucocorticoids inhibit wound healing by reducing collagen synthesis and deposition.
Tissue remodeling is influenced by factors such as growth factors, mechanical stress, and the balance of collagen synthesis and degradation.

Inflammation

Inflammation is not caused by ischemia.
The primary function of inflammation is to protect the body from injury and infection.
The primary effect of inflammation is to increase blood flow and permeability, leading to edema and leukocyte diapedesis.

Tissue Characteristics

Cartilage has little to no regenerative capability.
Skin has the highest regenerative capability.
Tissue repair by fibrosis does not involve the contraction of fibroblasts.

Wound Healing Outcomes

Wound dehiscence is often caused by increased tension on the wound.
Primary wound healing results in wound edges being approximated by sutures or other mechanisms.
Delayed healing is often caused by prolonged inflammation.
