question

answer
Fibroplasia = scar formation - begins within first few days, lasts 4-6 weeks, signs and symptoms gradually subside, formation of delicate connective tissue (temporary scaffold)
question
Scar Formation
answer
-gradual replacement of weak fibrin plug with stronger collagen - formation of disorganized scar tissue (adhesions) - adhesion is common after surgery
question
Maturation and Remodeling (Phase 3)
answer
- long term process -realignment of collagen along stress line - continued breakdown and synthesis of collagen = inc. strength - tissue gradually assume normal appearance - last approx. 3 weeks = strong scar - may require several years to complete
question
What factors impede healing?
answer
- Extent of injury - Edema - Hemorrhage - Poor vascular supply -Muscle spasm - Atrophy - Keloids & hypertrophic scars - infection - humidity, climate, oxygen tension (hyperbaric chamber) - health, age, nutrition
question
Wolff's Lows
answer
Bones and soft tissue will respond to the physical demands placed upon them - important rehabilitative concept because tissues will remodel or realign along lines of tensile force. - Negative Manifestation: Osgood Schlatter's myositis ossificans.
question
Soft Tissue Healing: Cartilage
answer
*limited capacity to heal - little or no direct blood supply - articular cartilage that fails to clot or has no cell response heals very slowly. *Usually requires surgical intervention
