Inflammatory Response

Inflammatory Response

  • Inflammatory Response

    body's natural defense that is activated when body is injured, when foreign substances are present, or when infectious agents attack

  • 4 steps of inflammation

    1. Recognition of harmful stimuli by pattern receptors (located on surface of cells)

    2. Activation of inflammatory pathway

    3.Release of inflammatory markers

    4. Recruitment of inflammatory cells

  • 2 categories of inflamation response

    Infectious

    Noninfectious

  • Infectious triggers

    Viruses, bacteria, fungi (microorganisms)

  • Non-infectious triggers

    burns, frostbite, foreign bodies that have entered body, trauma, injury, and radiation

  • Chemical noninfectious triggers

    fluoride

    nickel

    fatty acids

    alcohol

    toxins

    glucose

  • Manifestations of Inflamation

    Heat

    Redness

    Swelling

    Pain

    Loss of Function

  • Mediators of Inflamation

    Histamine

    Kinins

    Prostaglandins

  • Inflamatory Response Outcomes

    Heals Locally

    Spreads to lymph nodes (if too strong and unable to contain locally, causes inc WBCs)

    Spreads to Blood Stream (infection of one or more systems, septicimia (antibiotics given)

  • Stages Of Infection

    1. Incubation

    2.Prodromal

    3.Acute Illness

    4.Period of Decline

    5.Period of Convalescence

  • Incubation

    First stage of infection

    Pt doesn't feel ill, or have visible manifestations

    Period of exposure to first symptom

    (Changes in pathology may be observed with lab tests)

  • Prodromal

    Second Stage of Infection

    Pt has initial manifestations as infectious agent replicates

    symptoms nonspecific (fever, aches, poor appetite, malaise)

  • Acute Illness

    Third Stage of Infection

    Manifestations of specific infectious disease process become obvious

    Infection is considered severe at this stage

  • Period Of Decline

    fourth stage of infection

    manifestations begin to subside as # of infectious agents in the body decrease

    PT begins to feel better, regain strength and function

  • Period of Convalescence

    Final Stage of Infection

    Return to previous or a new balanced state of health

    some infections are so severe PT may not regain all previous functions and is left with lasting effects

  • (T/F) The type of infectious agnet, the soundness of the clients immune system, and the timeliness of treatment are all factors that influence the duration and severity of infections
