Study Notes
Inflammatory Phase
- The primary objective is to eliminate bacteria, foreign debris, and damaged tissue from the wound.
- Necrotic tissue, a type of dead tissue, needs to be eliminated during this phase.
- The relative strength of the tissue during this phase is weak, making it prone to further injury.
Proliferative Phase
- The primary objective is to restore tissue integrity and strength through the reconstruction of new tissue.
Overview of Wound Healing Phases
- The inflammatory phase is characterized by the elimination of contamination and nonviable tissue.
- The beginning of the maturation phase is marked by the decrease in cell proliferation and the reorganization of the collagen matrix.
