Wound Healing

What is the objective of stimulating collagen, elastin, and GAGs in wound healing?

• To produce tissue destroying enzymes

• To form a fibrin clot

• To arrest bacteria

• To provoke acceleration of skin regeneration

During which phase of wound healing does fibroblast proliferation occur?

• Haemostasis

• Inflammatory

• Remodelling

• Proliferation

What happens during the inflammatory phase of wound healing?

• Phagocytosis

• Collagen synthesis

• Fibroblast proliferation

• Vasoconstriction

Which cells clean up the wound area and arrest bacteria during the inflammatory phase?

• Early Neutrophils

• Epithelial cells

• Late Macrophages

• Fibroblasts

What is the purpose of angiogenesis in wound healing?

• To provoke acceleration of skin regeneration

• To arrest bacteria

• To form a fibrin clot

• To replace damaged blood vessels

Which phase of wound healing is responsible for collagen maturation and remodelling?

• Remodelling

• Haemostasis

• Inflammatory

• Proliferation

What is the purpose of ECM remodelling in wound healing?

• To arrest bacteria

• To form a fibrin clot

• To increase the tensile strength of the wound

• To provoke acceleration of skin regeneration

Which type of collagen matures to collagen type I during wound healing?

• Collagen type I

• Collagen type II

• Collagen type IV

• Collagen type III

What is the purpose of epithelization in wound healing?

• To arrest bacteria

• To form a fibrin clot

• To seal the wound

• To provoke acceleration of skin regeneration

What is the purpose of haemostasis in wound healing?

• To remove damaged tissue

• To provoke acceleration of skin regeneration

• To stop blood loss

• To form a fibrin clot
