  • Front
  • Back
anatomy
the study of the sructure of an organism and the relationship of its parts
physiology
how the parts work
pathology
the study f disease
anatomical position
the body is standing with arms at both sides with palms front. The head and feet also point forward (AKA supine)
3 planes or body sections
*sagital- divides body into right and left sides
*Frontal- divides the body into anterior and posterior (front and back)
*Mid-sagital- divides the body into two equal halves
2 major body cavities and their sub divisions and an organ in each
*ventral- (front)
-thoracic cavity: mediastinum(heart), right and left pleural (lungs)
-Abdomino-pelvic cavity: digestive organs,bladder, and female reproductive organs
*Dorsal cavity- (back)
-cranial cavity: brain
-spinal cavity: spinal cord
2 body regions
*Axial: head, neck, and trunk
*Appendicular: upper and lower extremities
8 warning signs of cancer
1- a sore that does not heal
2- a change in a wort or a mole
3- unusual bleeding
4- chronic hoarseness or cough
5- chronic indigestion
6-change in bladder or bowel habits
7- alump or thickening in tissue
8- bone pain that wakes you up at night
beign and malignant tumors (compare)
benign- slow growth, encapsulation, expand but not spread, well differinated, morality low.
malignant- cancer, rapid growth, non-encapsulation, infultrate surrounding tissue, metastaiszes, undiffereniated, morality rate high
2 major layers of skin
*Epidermis- thin top layer
(Sublayers)-stratum corneum: toughest
-stratum lucidum: in palms
-stratum granulosum
-stratum spinosum
-stratum basale-contains melenocytes
*Dermis- thick deeper layer
(sublayers)
-superficial region: papillary(loose and contains papillae that bond the layers)
-deep thicker region: Recticular (dense and has collegen, elastic and recticular fibers that give the dermis its strength, elasticity, and extensibility)
skin appendages
*HAIR: hair folicle- live part
hair shaft- visible part (dead)
hair root- part of hair not seen
*NAILS: nail body- visible part
nail bed- under body
*GLANDS: -sudoriferous-eccrine(thin watery) and apocrine (thick, milky,begins in young age, bacteria waste=BO
-Sebaceous:secrets subum, natures skin cream, keeps skin soft, increses5X in youth,attached to every hair folicle
*RECEPTORS:1-hair folicle endings- hair displacement
2-Ruffini endings- pressure on skin
3-Krauses end bulb- pressure on lips, tongue, and genitals
4-Pacinan corpuscle-vibration(150-300 hz range)
5-Meissners corpuscle- vibration(20-40 hz range)
6-free nerve endings- mechanical, thermal, and noxious pain
MRSA (methasillian resistant mengacochal meningitus)
(INFECTION)
*a strain of staph that devoloped in hospitals from overuse of anti-biotic materials.
*signs- small red papules that turn into deep absecesses, can remain in the skin. But, can travel to joints,bones,bloo etc. Can be life threatening.
*risk factors-hospital/nursing
-recent antiibiotic therapy
-invasive devices
-young age
-contact sports
-immunosupressed
-sharing razors
-prison innmates
*treatment: vancomycin
*prevention: good hygine
2 auto immune disorders
(auto immune)Atopic dermatitus
*chronic inflamation of the skin
*signs- itching red rash with papules that ooze. Most often apear onn extremities also on eyes/lids
*risk- family history
-stress and emotion(will not cause it)
*treatments:reduce stress, over the counter meds like anti-itch cream and omega 3's
(PSORASIS)-T-lymphacytes infiltrate the skin causing rapid motility of epidermal cells to the surface
*signs-red patches of skin covered in scales(plaque). Dry cracked skin with bleeding
*risks- genetics,HIV,stress,smoking,obesity
*treatment- symptomatic(toipical and oral meds, vitamin D,sunlight(small amounts),stress reduction
3 common skin cancers compare and contrast
BASAL CELL CARCINOMA *the most common skin cancer,rarely fatal,can cause tissue damage.
*signs- a white/waxy bump with blood vesels in it.(face)
*risks- fair skin,family history,male,immune supressing drugs
*treatment- surgery,freezing,laser,topical drugs(Tazorac-used for acne)
SQUAMUS CELL CARCINOMA
slow growing,from epidermis. Can matastisize,but rarely.Faster than Basel cell.
*signs- small redish bumps/patches,sore tht does not heal
*treatment- smae as Basal cell
MALIGNANT MELONOMA
*aggressive malignancy,2-4% of skin cancers but 99% deadly
New cases this year-60,000
Deaths- 8,000
*signs- mole that meets one or more of the ABCDE
*treatment:surgery, chemo,radiation
