Cellular Adaptation • Physiologic vs. pathogenic • Atrophy • Hypertrophy • Hyperplasia • Metaplasia • Dysplasia
Cellular Injury • Reversible • Irreversible
Cellular Injury Mechanisms • Hypoxic injury • Ischemia • Anoxia • Cellular responses • Decrease in ATP, causing failure of sodium-potassium pump and sodium-calcium exchange • Cellular swelling • Reperfusion injury
Cellular Injury Mechanisms • Free radicals and reactive oxygen species • Electrically uncharged atom or group of atoms having an unpaired electron • Lipid peroxidation • Alteration of proteins • Alteration of DNA • Mechanisms for the inactivation of free radicals
Cellular Injury Mechanisms • Chemical injury • Lead • Carbon monoxide • Ethanol • Mercury • Social or street drugs
Unintentional and Intentional Injuries • Blunt force injuries • Application of mechanical energy to the body resulting in the tearing, shearing, or crushing of tissues • Contusion vs. hematoma • Abrasion • Laceration • Fractures
Unintentional and Intentional Injuries • Sharp force injuries • Incised wounds • Stab wounds • Puncture wounds • Chopping wounds
Unintentional and Intentional Injuries • Gunshot wounds • Entrance wounds • Contact range entrance wound • Intermediate range entrance wound • Tattooing and stippling • Indeterminate range entrance wound • Exit wounds • Shored exit wound
