Q

What are the 3 Key stages of Phase 1 Inflammatory Response Phase

A

Vasoconstriction: occurs upon tissue disruption to seal blood vessels
Vasodilation: occurs within minutes after initial vasoconstriction (increase blood flow and leads to swelling)
Clot formation: important to avoid disruption

25
What are the 3 stages of tendon healing
Stage 1: injured tendon will adhere to surrounding tissues Stage 2: tendon will gradually separate bceoming more mobile stage 3: tensile strength gradually returns, tendon can be loaded normally
26

Hematoma within the medullary cavity and the surrounding tissue develops
28
How does blood supply get disrupted in bone healing, after hematoma, and how calluses get filled
blood supply gets disrupted by clotting vessels and cellular debris, osteoblasts fill the internal and external calluses to immobilize the site
29
