PowerPoint ® Lecture Slide Presentation by Patty Bostwick-Taylor, Florence-Darlington Technical College Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 4 Skin and Body Membranes
2
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Body Membranes Function of body membranes Cover body surfaces Line body cavities Form protective sheets around organs
3
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Classification of Body Membranes Epithelial membranes Cutaneous membranes Mucous membranes Serous membranes Connective tissue membranes Synovial membranes
4
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Epithelial - Cutaneous Membrane Cutaneous membrane = skin Dry membrane Outermost protective boundary Superficial epidermis is composed of keratinized stratified squamous epithelium Underlying dermis is mostly dense connective tissue
5

6
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Epithelial - Mucous Membranes Surface epithelium type depends on site Stratified squamous epithelium (mouth, esophagus) Simple columnar epithelium (rest of digestive tract) Underlying loose connective tissue (lamina propria) Lines all body cavities that open to the exterior body surface Often adapted for absorption or secretion
7
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Mucous Membranes Figure 4.1b
8
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Epithelial - Serous Membranes Surface is a layer of simple squamous epithelium Underlying layer is a thin layer of areolar connective tissue Lines open body cavities that are closed to the exterior of the body, protects organs and secretes lubricating fluids. Serous membranes occur in pairs separated by serous fluid Visceral (inner) layer covers the outside of the organ Parietal (outer) layer lines a portion of the wall of ventral body cavity

Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Integumentary System Skin (cutaneous membrane) Skin derivatives Sweat glands Oil glands Hair Nails
15
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Skin Structure Epidermis—outer layer Stratified squamous epithelium Often keratinized (hardened by keratin) Dermis Dense connective tissue Hypodermis Subcutaneous – deep to dermis
16
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Skin Structure Figure 4.3
17
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Skin Structure Subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis) is deep to dermis Not part of the skin Anchors skin to underlying organs Composed mostly of adipose tissue
18
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Layers of the Epidermis Stratum basale (stratum germinativum) Deepest layer of epidermis Lies next to dermis Cells undergoing mitosis Daughter cells are pushed upward to become the more superficial layers Stratum spinosum Stratum granulosum
19
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Layers of the Epidermis Stratum lucidum Formed from dead cells of the deeper strata Occurs only in thick, hairless skin of the palms of hands and soles of feet Stratum corneum Outermost layer of epidermis Shingle-like dead cells are filled with keratin (protective protein prevents water loss from skin)
20
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Layers of the Epidermis Summary of layers from deepest to most superficial Stratum basale Stratum spinosum Stratum granulosum Stratum lucidum (thick, hairless skin only) Stratum corneum
21
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Melanin Pigment (melanin) produced by melanocytes Melanocytes are mostly in the stratum basale Color is yellow to brown to black Amount of melanin produced depends upon genetics and exposure to sunlight
22
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Dermis Two layers Papillary layer (upper dermal region) Projections called dermal papillae Some contain capillary loops Other house pain receptors and touch receptors Reticular layer (deepest skin layer) Blood vessels Sweat and oil glands Deep pressure receptors
23
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Dermis Overall dermis structure Collagen and elastic fibers located throughout the dermis Collagen fibers give skin its toughness Elastic fibers give skin elasticity Blood vessels play a role in body temperature regulation

41
Six Categories of Skin Disorders Infectious: caused by a pathogen that infects the skin or enters through an opening. Allergic/Environmental Trauma/Burns Cancer Congenital Genetic
42
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Skin Homeostatic Imbalances Infections Athlete’s foot (tinea pedis) Caused by fungal infection Boils and carbuncles Caused by bacterial infection Cold sores Caused by virus
43
Athletes Foot Tinea pedis: Athlete’s foot resulting from a fungal infection. Red, itchy, peeling skin. Treatment involves an antifungal cream or pill that will destroy the pathogen. Other similar cutaneous fungal infections include: –Ringworm –Sun spots
44
Cutaneous Fungal Infections
45
Boils and carbuncles Inflammation of hair follicles and sebaceous glands. Typically caused by bacterial infection; Staphylococcus aureus. Easily treated with an antibiotic that will destroy the bacteria if used properly.
46
Staph Infections and MRSA –M = Methicillin, a potent antibiotic –R = Resistant –S = Staphylococcus –A = Aureus MRSA = staph infection that is no longer cured with traditional antibiotics. 1950’s: hospital-acquired or NOSOCOMIAL infection. –1.2 million infections/19,000 deaths in 2011. Now becoming community-acquired. –19000 cMRSA deaths in 2011.
47
What does MRSA look like?
48
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Skin Homeostatic Imbalances Infections and Allergies Contact dermatitis Exposures cause allergic reaction Impetigo Caused by bacterial infection Psoriasis Cause is unknown Triggered by trauma, infection, stress
49
Impetigo Bacterial infection Pink, water-filled raised lesions. Usually found around the mouth and nose. HIGHLY contagious. Common in young children. Easily treated with antibiotics.
50
Cold sores Caused by herpes simplex (viral) infection. Small, fluid-filled blisters that itch and sting. Virus follows a cycle – Outbreaks result from environmental or emotional stresses. OTC medications can shorten infection time or reduce the size of the lesion. No cure.
51
Categories of Disorders Infectious Allergic/Environmental: exposure to agents that lead to irritation/inflammation. Trauma/Burns Cancer Congenital Genetic
52
Contact dermatitis Itching, redness, swelling of skin. Progresses to blisters. Caused by exposure to chemicals. Provokes an allergic response. Treated with steroids to reduce inflammation. Poison Ivy Chemical burn
53
Psoriasis Chronic condition; characterized by red lesions covered with dry, silvery scales. Cause is unknown, but may be hereditary. Attacks often brought on by emotional upset, hormonal changes, and trauma.
54
Checkpoint Questions What 3 types of pathogens can cause infections in the skin? How do we treat a herpes simplex infection? What does MRSA stand for? What is the treatment for typical bacterial infections?
55
Checkpoint Questions What 3 types of pathogens can cause infections in the skin? Fungus, Bacteria, Virus How do we treat a herpes simplex infection? OTC medicines only. No cure What does MRSA stand for? Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus What is the treatment for typical bacterial infections? Antibiotics
56
Burns A burn is tissue damage and cell death caused by intense heat or cold, electricity, UV radiation, or chemicals. Two life-threatening problems 1. Loss of fluids resulting in dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. 2. Threat of infection due to loss of intact barrier.
57
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Rule of Nines Way to determine the extent of burns Body is divided into 11 areas for quick estimation Each area represents about 9% of total body surface area 1% is the genital region
58
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Rule of Nines Figure 4.11a
59
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Severity of Burns First-degree burns Only epidermis is damaged Skin is red and swollen Second-degree burns Epidermis and upper dermis are damaged Skin is red with blisters Third-degree burns Destroys entire skin layer Burn is gray-white or black
60
First-degree burn Only the epidermis is damaged. Area becomes red and swollen. Temporary discomfort. Generally not serious and heals in two to three days. Example: sunburn
61
Second-degree burn Injury to the epidermis and the upper region of the dermis. Skin is red, painful, and blistered. Regeneration will occur. Usually no permanent scarring.
62
Third-degree burn AKA Full Thickness Burn; destroys the entire thickness of the skin. Burned area appears blanched (gray-white) or blackened. Nerve endings are destroyed. Requires skin grafts.
63
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Critical Burns Burns are considered critical if Over 25% of body has second-degree burns Over 10% of the body has third-degree burns There are third-degree burns of the face, hands, or feet
64
Categories of Disorders Infectious Allergic/Environmental Trauma/Burns Cancer: abnormal mitosis leading to malignancy. Congenital Genetic
65
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Skin Cancer Cancer—abnormal cell mass Classified two ways Benign Does not spread (encapsulated) Malignant Spreads Metastasized (moves) to other parts of the body
66
Skin cancer The most commonly diagnosed cancer Many factors can affect a person ’ s predisposition to getting skin cancer. Genetics Exposure to UV radiation Frequent skin irritation Physical trauma
67
Basal cell carcinoma Least malignant/ most common Involves cells of st. basale. No longer forms keratin; invades dermis and hypodermis. Shiny, dome shaped nodule that eventually develops a central ulcer with raised edge.
68
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Skin Cancer Types Figure 4.12a
69
Squamous cell carcinoma Arises from cells in st. spinosum Scaly red papule that forms a shallow ulcer with a firm raised border. Grows rapidly and spreads quickly to lymph nodes. Good chance for cure if caught early.
70
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Skin Cancer Types Figure 4.12b
71
Malignant melanoma Cancer of melanocytes. 5% of skin cancers. Occurs wherever there is pigment. Randomly located, but can occur from a pigmented mole. Spreads quickly to lymph nodes and blood vessels. ABCD Rule
72
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Skin Cancer Types Figure 4.12c
73
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings ABCD Rule A = Asymmetry Two sides of pigmented mole do not match B = Border irregularity Borders of mole are not smooth C = Color Different colors in pigmented area D = Diameter Spot is larger then 6 mm in diameter
74
Categories of Disorders Infectious Allergic/Environmental Trauma/Burns Cancer Congenital: malformation of development occurring during gestation (pregnancy) Genetic
75
Hemangioma Benign swelling of the lining of blood vessels. Dense capillary network that does not dissolve as fetal development progresses. Many dissolve on own without intervention by age 10. Some can be severely disfiguring. CAUTION!
77
Categories of Disorders Infectious Allergic/Environmental Trauma/Burns Cancer Congenital Genetic: mutation of a specific gene sequence that leads to a malformation of a protein needed for normal structure or function.
78
Ichthyosis Malformation of proteins needed for normal skin development. Rough, scaly, “fish- like” skin. Most dangerous is Harlequin type.
79
Epidermolysis bullosa Malformation of collagen and other connective proteins that bind/hold the skin together. Results in blistering as the epidermis pulls away from the dermis.
