Questions and Answers

Begins immediately after injury. Characterized by increased blood flow, swelling, redness and heat.

  • Inflammatory phase (correct)
  • Debridement phase
  • Repair/regeneration phase
  • Maturation phase

    • Occurs approximately 6 hours after injury. Pus may accumulate, composed of WBCs. Crucial phase.

  • Inflammatory phase
  • Debridement phase (correct)
  • Repair/regeneration phase
  • Maturation phase

    • Begins 3-5 days post injury. Fibroblasts invade the area, forming granulation tissue.

  • Inflammatory phase
  • Debridement phase
  • Repair/regeneration phase (correct)
  • Maturation phase

    • Begins about 3 weeks after injury. Characterized by collagen remodeling and a slow gain in wound strength
