Primary intention- wound healing with skin edges that are approximated, risk of infection is low, healing occurs quickly with minimal scar formation as long as infection and secondary breakdown is prevented (similar to a surgical wound)
Most common = Acute wounds; minimal tissue loss = surgical wounds and superficial partial thickness (abrasions/blisters)
Secondary Intention This type of healing is in wounds with extensive tissue loss/infection & wounds in which the edges cannot be approximated (closed). Would is left open and granulation tissue gradually fills in the deficit. Susceptible to infection. Wet to dry dressings. Ex: Pressure Ulcer Associated w/ pathology = diabetes, ischemia, pressure damage in inflammation (Neuropathic, arterial, venous, full thickness, chronic inflammation) Require ongoing wound care - larger scares
Answer:
superficial
Explanation:
Skin is the outermost layer of the body. It's the closest to the surface. Therefore it is supercial to the stomach, which is more "deep" inside the body.
Ex) The skin is superficial to the muscles
Answer:
Human sense organs are the eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and skin—each having its own particular type of receptors. Sense organs are essential if an animal is to obtain any information about its surroundings. Without them, the individual organism would probably not survive long
