Subcutaneous tissue

The body system I chose was the integumentary system. The reason I chose this system was because I think that the skin is especially important being that it’s shown everyday. My skin is greatly significant to me that is why I always make sure it's cleaned and properly taken care of, especially my face. Besides the way I see the skin, I would like to learn more about my skin’s defense, disorders, diseases, etc. The integumentary system is one of the twelve different body systems we have.…

wounds. 2.3 A burn is tissue damage caused by thermal or non-thermal sources including chemical, electrical, radioactive sources and cold thermal injuries. The largest and most vulnerable organ of the human body is the skin as it performs a variety of functions to protect against the environment such as microorganisms, bacteria, UV radiation and harmful chemicals. It also provides sensory information and consists of three layers, the epidermis, dermis and the subcutaneous (hypodermis) layers…

process in which the clotting system is abnormally activated, resulting in widespread clot formation in the small vessels throughout the body. The pathophysiology is excess thrombin is generated, followed by deposition of fibrin strands in the body tissues.” (Ball, 2012) “The circulating fibrin fragments later begin to interfere with platelet aggregation and other aspects of the clotting mechanism, resulting in bleeding or hemorrhage.” (Lewis, 2014). DIC can be acute or chronic, most people…

one of three ways depending on the medication being given. Some medications are very thin and some are extremely thick. The three different injections are the intradermal, subcutaneous, and intramuscular. Intradermal injections are barely piercing the epidermis for the absorption of the medication being given. Subcutaneous injections are beneath the epidermis into the dermis. Intramuscular injections must be injected into a muscle. The disadvantages would be an allergic reaction at the…

midline to the lateral exit site, where leads are then subsequently attached to the straw device and pulled laterally through the tunneled path out to the exit site. The skin incision is irrigated and closed with absorbable sutures for the subcutaneous tissues and nylon sutures, liquid adhesive/durabond and or staples are used to close the…

Bisphenol A on tissue and liver enzymes, serum lipids and blood glucose in rats Abstract: Background and Purpose:Bisphenol A (BPA) is a synthetic compound of carbon with chemical formula is (CH3)2C (C6H4OH) 2 Diphenyl methane derivatives belonging to the group. BPA has harmful effects on mammals.Because of endocrine disrupters can be on serum lipids, tissue and serum liver enzymes and blood sugar affect, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of BPA on serum lipids, tissue and liver…

Pathology is a science that focuses on the diseases in the body. Which mainly examines the body fluids, tissues and organs to diagnose what disease is in the body. When doing special effects Pathology is very important for realistic features. Make up artists need to know the stages of healing so the continuity between different time frames and shots on screen. The body system that is being looked at is the Integumentary System which is any medical condition that has to do with the skin, nails…

Stainless steel or any other metal will simply not be able to cut or otherwise puncture the skin or tissues of a unicorn as they are fey creatures. Once the creature is dispatched the process of butchery can begin. Standard practice is to bleed out the animal as a first step. This bleed out is usually done by suspending the animal by its hind legs and slicing…

The main treatment option is an insulin injection. The insulin is injected by a syringe and is administered into the subcutaneous tissue. A newer way of administering insulin is through an insulin pump. The pump is directed through a port that is usually located on the lower part of the persons stomach. The pump monitors the blood glucose levels 24/7 and delivers the insulin…

mellitus (diabetes.org.uk, 2012). Type 2 diabetes is characterised by either insufficient production of the hormone insulin from the beta cells of the pancreas or the body’s resistance to its effects. This means that insulin-sensitive peripheral tissues have a decreased ability to respond to the hormone action (Xu et al. 2003). Over time, this results in elevated blood glucose (hyperglycaemia) as the muscle, adipose and liver cells cannot utilise glucose as a source of energy (Sizer and Whitney,…
