Burns and Other Skin Lesions
2
Classification
3
First Degree Burn: Epidermis only
5
First Degree Burn
7
Second Degree Burn
8
Second Degree Burn: Epidermis and upper layers of the dermis
9
Second Degree Burn
10
Second-Degree Burns
11
Third Degree Burn: Complete destruction of the epidermis & dermis
13
Estimating percentages
14
Regeneration
15
Regeneration/Scarring
16
Scar Occurs whenever wound/ulcer has occurred; reflects healing
Keloid: Abnl formation of CT; form w/ dermal tissue damage; initially are thick but may w/ time become white and atrophic
19
Skin graft donor site: about halfway through the initial healing stage
20
Papule Firm, raised lesion (less than 1cm in diameter)
21
Papule
22
Plaque Large, raised lesion (greater than 1 cm in diameter)
23
Plaque - Psoriasis
24
Vesicle Thin-walled blister filled w/ fluid, <1cm
Between Epi/Derm junction or within dermis Clinically significant
25
Vesicle
26
Pustule Elevated lesion filled w/ pus
27
Pustule
28
Crust Hardened deposits of serum and cellular debris
result when serum, blood, or purulent (pus) exudates dries on skin surface “scab”
30
Wheal Firm, raised area of irregular shape/light center
31
Wheal
32
Cyst Nodule that contains fluid or semisolid material
33
Macule Distinguished from surrounding skin by color
34
Macule
35
Abrasion Epidermis removed, revealing dermis
36
Excoriation Epidermis is missing, dermis is exposed Linear “scratch”
37
Ulcer Craterlike lesion caused by disintegration of the skin (epidermis and dermis) Heals w/ scarring
38
Bed Sore Compression of skin between bony prominence and other surface
Cuts off circulation leads to necrosis of tissue - Lack of blood supply prevents proper healing promotes infection
39
Fissure Linear crack or break from epidermis to dermis
