Keloid is additional tissue on a scar that grow extensively beyond the original boundaries of the wound. They can sometimes double‚ triple‚ or even quadruple the size of the wound that was there to begin with. Keloids do not cause danger to health‚ except if they are growing continuously‚ than the doctor would have to take a sample of the scar tissue to further study. They are more of a cosmetic problem‚ especially when they are located on visible body parts like the face ‚ nose‚ or ear. Individuals

overall health status will affect the speed of the healing process. The following are factors that should be considered by the surgical team prior to and during the procedure. THE PATIENT’S AGE--With aging‚ both skin and muscle tissue lose their tone and elasticity. Metabolism also slows‚ and circulation may be impaired. All of these factors lengthen healing time. THE PATIENT’S WEIGHT--In obese patients of any age‚ excess fat at the wound site may prevent securing a good closure. In

Wound healing is the process of replacing or repairing damaged or devitalized cellular components and tissue. There are four recognized stages including hemostasis‚ inflammation‚ proliferation‚ and maturation or remodeling. These phases are widely overlapping and interconnected. The first stage‚ hemostasis begins immediately after injury. Platelets consolidate around the site and cytokines‚ hormones and and chemokines are released into the surrounding area. Epinephrine‚ norepinephrine‚ serotonin

Write a critical review of the following offprint articles. ‘Mucosal wound healing’‚ Marucha‚ et al‚ 1998 This study was carried in the Ohio State University College of dentistry and published in 1998. This study began by reviewing a previous study on stress and health. This found that people undertaking a chronically stressful activity show characteristic changes in their blood chemistry and take longer to heal minor wounds than do people who are not under conditions of stress. Therefore‚ it

stage of acute wound healing. It is characterized by the formation of a primary plug to prevent any further blood loss and exposure to environmental pathogens. Once the tissue has been injured‚ the vascular and lymphatic vessels that are disrupted become constricted. The reparative coagulum is initiated as platelets adhere to the interior surfaces of the vessels as well as to a newly forming matrix of fibrin that together become the cruor of the thrombus‚ thus forming a provisional wound matrix.

Pressure ulcers are “ischemic wounds in the skin and underlying tissues caused by long-standing pressure force over an external bone or cartilaginous surface” (Guillén-Solà 2013). Pressure ulcers are a challenging part of the healthcare system due to prolong patient hospitalization and a reduction in the patient’s quality of life‚ since many patients that are in the hospital are there for either chronic conditions or intensive surgery‚ which may require an extensive and long term stay.
