Anatomy of the skin
• The skin consists of 3 layers:
– Epidermis- non vascular outermost layer, continuously dividing cells
–Dermis- takes the largest portion of the skin and provides strength and structure. It consists of glands (sebaceous, sweat), hair follicle, blood vessels, and nerve endings
– Subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis)- the inner most layer. contains major vascular networks, fat, nerves, and lymphatics

Function of the skin • Protection- protection of underlying structures from
invasion by bacteria, noxious chemicals and foreign matter.
• Sensory perception- transmits pain, touch, pressure, temperature, itching, etc
• Fluid balance (excretion)- absorption of fluids and evaporation of excess.
• Temperature regulation- produced heat released through skin by radiation, conduction, and convection
• Vitamin synthesis- skin exposed to ultra violet light can convert substances necessary for synthesizing vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol).
• Aesthetic- provides beautiness and appearance

Factors influencing skin integrity
• Immoblity is the major factor leading to pressure sore development .
• The pt who is confined to bed & unable to change position is at greatest risk .
• Trauma most likely occur
– over the prominent areas
– weight bearing areas

• Prolonged pressure impairs blood flow to tissue & resulfs in ischemia & inferction
• The extent of pressure necessary to cause tisue damage depnds on the tolerance of the pt's skin & supporting stuctures .

• Tolerance to pressurs trauma is influenced by the following factors:
– Duration of pressure
– Magnitude of pressure
– Body position
– Friction
– Impaired moblity
– Malnutrition
– Dehy dration

COMMON DERMATOLOGIC TERMS
• Lichenification: distinictive thickening of skin
• Crust: dried exudate of body fliuds
• Erusion: epithelial deficiet
• Ulcer: epithelial deficiet (disruption of deep skin integrity)
• Atrophy: an acquired loss of substance
• Scar:change in the skin secondery to trumas or inflammation

A. Eczema/Dermatitis
- It is a chronic pruritic inflammatory disorder affecting the epidermis, and dermis commencing in infancy, often persisting throughout child hood but eventually remitting and some times recurring in adult life.
• They are a non-infectious inflammation of the skin and it can be acute, sub-acute or chronic.

Sign and symptom
• An acute stage eczema shows redness, swelling, papules, blisters, oozing and crusts.
• In the sub-acute stage the skin is still red but becomes drier and scalier and may show pigment change.
• In the chronic stage
-lichenification,
-excoriation,
-scaling and cracks are seenHA(MSN) 42

Types of eczemaAtopic eczema
- is a chronic relapsing skin disorder that usually begins in infancy and is characterized principally by dry skin and pruritis, consequent rubbing and scratching lead to lichenification
• This patient has a genetic predisposition for hypersensitivity reactions such as asthma, allergic rhinitis, and chronic urticaria. – The eczema comes and goes
– The eczema triggered by dryness of the skin, infections, heat, sweating, contact with allergens or irritants and emotional stress.

Pathophysiology of burn
• Tissue destruction results from:- coagulation- protein denaturation, or -ionization of cellular contents.
• Disruption of the skin can lead to:- increased fluid loss, -infection, hypothermia, scarring, -compromised immunity, and
-changes in function, appearance, and body image.• The depth of the injury depends on:
- the temperature of the burning agent and -the duration of contact with the agent.

RXs1. Superficial burn treatment
• Skin is intact so there is a low chance of infection.
• Topical “exudates” as physical protection can be used.
• Dressings or films that are self adhesive, water proof and semi-permeable.
• Skin protectants
• Cold compresses, external anesthetics, topical corticosteroids and oral pain relievers.

2. Superficial partial thickness burn
• Unbroken skin
Do not disturb blisters!!! They are protective of the skin below the blister.
• If broken/debrided: May become infected so cleanse 1-2x’s/day to remove dead skin. Do not pull on skin!
• Cleanse with bland soaps or surfactants and water 1-2xs/day
• First aid antiseptics or antibiotics sufficient
• Dressing and skin protectant should be used

C. By location• Burns of the
-face,
-neck and
-circumferential burns of the chest may inhibit respiration
• Burns of the hands, feet, joints, and eyes are of concern because they make self care impossible and jeopardize later function
• Hands and feet are difficult to manage medically because of superficial vascular and nerve supply systems

Cont…• The ears and nose, composed mainly of
cartilage, are susceptible to infection because of poor blood supply to the cartilage
• Burns of the buttock or genitalia are susceptible to infection
• circumferential burns of the extremities can cause circulatory compromise distal to the burn with subsequent neurologic impairment of the affected extremity

D. By age
• an infant is less able to cope with burn injuries
because of:
- an immature immune system and
- generally poor host defense mechanisms,
• The older adult heals more slowly and has more difficulty with rehabilitation than a child or younger adult
• Infection of the burn wound and pneumonia are common complications in the older patient

Fluid type and fluid replacement formulas for burn patients
Fluids can be:• Colloids are whole blood, plasma, plasma
expanders, and dextran, etc• Crystalloid (Electrolytes) are sodium chloride,
ringers lactate, etcFluid replacement formulas are:• Consensus formula• Evans formula• Brooke Army formula• Parkland/Baxter formula
HA(MSN) 173

1. Consensus formula (In the first 24 hours)- the most commonly used method
2-4ml X kg X % TBSA burned for 24 hours
• E.g.: Ato Chane, 38 years old factory worker, 60kg body weight, sustained a burn injury with a 30% body surface burn came to surgical emergency OPD where you are working.
• How are you going to calculate the fluid to be replaced for Ato Chane? – Using the Consensus formula
– 2ml X 60kg X 30%=3600ml/24 hours
HA(MSN) 174
![Page 175: Integumentary Disorders Presentation.ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062419/55a2051b1a28abee648b4610/html5/thumbnails/175.jpg)
Plan of fluid administration
• Half of the calculated fluid in the above case 1800ml should be given over the first 8 hours and the remaining half that is 1800ml over the next 16 hours.
For example
• Our casualty has a burn to his legs approximating 18% of body surface: 18
• He weighs approximately 100 Kilograms: 100
• Therefore 100 x 4 = 400, 400 x 18 = 7200
• 7200 CCs of fluid are needed.

cont’d
• Standard IV drip sets for Prehospital cases are usually called Macrodrip sets...they deliver
1ml Q 10 drop, 1ML= 1CC• In order to deliver 3600 CCs of fluid in eight
hours we would set the drip rate at 75 drops per minute, or 7.5 CCs per minute.
• 7.5 CCs x 480 minutes (8 hours) = 3600 CCs or 3.6 Litres (1000 CCs per Litre)

2. Evans formula
• Colloids-
1ml X Kg X % TBSA burned
• Electrolyte(normal saline)-
1ml X Kg X % TBSA burned
Plan of fluid administration

Systemic effects of burn• Metabolic - client is in a hypermetabolic stage
• Endocrine– increased catecholamines, ADH, aldosterone, and
cortisol increase metabolism
– O2 and calorie needs are increased
– the body is under stress response catabolism increases
calorie requirements may be double or triple the usual amount needed

RespiratoryMajor cause of morbidity/ mortality– inhalation injury r/t contact to steam, toxic
fumes, or smoke– may be r/t treatmentlarge amount of fluid
volume infused may cause edema– increase in alveolar capillary permeability– constriction of chest r/t circumferential burn– injury can occur from edema from irritants
which cause edema and blockage of trachea

Respiratory…
– decreased movement of the normal cilia in the trachea may allow foreign bacteria and particles to enter into the lungs
– lining of the trachea may slough off and become lodged in the bronchus
– damage to the alveoli and the capillary membrane may lead to infection and respiratory failure

Cardiac• cardiac output is the most effected by the
loss of fluid• early the rate increases to compensate
for the loss of volume• cardiac output remains decreased in spite
of the increase rate– may be decreased for 36 hrs– when fluid is replaced goes back to normal
function

GASTROINTESTIONAL- Effects occur due to the shift of blood volume
to vital organs- Epinephrine and NE inhibit gastric motility
and decrease blood flow to the GI tract- Decreased periostalis occurs- H+ ion production increases- Develop ulcers (Curling’s ulcer within 24
hours) - Use H2 blockers

Immune response
• Widespread impairment of the immune system
• Skin is barrier to invading organisms
• Changes in the WBC’s occur,
• Susceptibility to infection increases

Renal response• Blood flow to the kidneys is decreased and
renal ischemia occurs• Unless flow is improved renal failure occurs• With full thickness electrical burns myoglobin
and hemoglobin are released in the blood and can occlude the renal tublesWith adequate diuretics and fluid the
problem can be corrected
HA(MSN) 186
![Page 187: Integumentary Disorders Presentation.ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062419/55a2051b1a28abee648b4610/html5/thumbnails/187.jpg)
• Renal function may be altered as a result of decreased blood volume.
– Destruction of RBC at the injury site results in free haemoglobin in the urine.
– If muscle damage occurs, myoglobin is released from the muscle cells and excreted by the kidney.
– If there is in adequate blood flow through the kidneys, the hemoglobin and myoglobinocclude the renal tubules resulting in acute tubular necrosis and renal failure.

Etiologies of burn• Many causes cause affects the outcome
Dry heat-open flame house fire and explosionsŸ
Moist heat=scald older adults most common=spills and splatters
Contact burns hot metal/tar/grease (industrial, home and restaurants)usually deep because liquid is extremely hot
Chemical injury-occurs in home and industry (drain cleaner, acids used in industry or chemicals in industry )**Severity depends on the length of contact and amount of tissue exposed

Wound I. Based on cleanness
• Clean wound- has a discharge that may be fresh blood/ serum.
• Septic wound- has discharge like pus, exudates, and dead tissues.
II. Based on opening
• 1. Closed wound- involves injury to the underlying tissues with out a break to the skin or mucus membrane
• 2. Open wound- is a break in the skin or mucus membrane

1. Abrasion/Graze/wound– The outer layer/superficial layer of the protective skin is
scrapped off2. Incised wound/cut/
– When body tissue is cut by a sharp edged material3. Lacerated wound• It is an irregular tearing of soft tissue4. Puncture/stab/wound5. Avulsion wound6. Contusion wound/bruise/ wound• A closed wound that results in tissue damage and ruptured blood
vessels• If internal organs are contused serious effect may result

Types of wound healing1. Primary intention• The wound is clean and no tissue loss• The wound closes rapidly because there are no gaps in the tissue• Edges can be approximated with suture/staples (clip)/ wound closure
strips• Risk of infection is low• Fine scar will remain• E.g.: surgical incision
2. Secondary intention• Loss of tissue• Irregular edge, large wound with blood clot• Edge can not be approximated• Greater risk of infection• Longer healing time• Granulation tissue fills in wound• Visible scar formation• E.g.: wounds from trauma, ulceration and infection

Cont’d…
3. Tertiary intention
• Large area of tissue loss
• Contaminated wound
• Delayed closure even with suture that breaks down and re-sutured latter
• Results in deeper and wider scar
• E.g.: primary wound which was infected

Phases of wound healingInflammatory phase
• Occurs immediately after an injury and lasts 4-6 days
• Small blood vessels become more permeable
• Presence of edema
• Pain and tenderness occurs
• Phagocytosis occurs
• The client shows elevated temperature, leukocytosis and generalized malaise

2. Proliferative or granulation phase
– Begins between 1 and 4 days after the injury and ends 14-21 days later
– Rapid growth of epithelial cells
– Rebuilding of vascular capillary network and collagen tissue
– Collagen fibers fill in the gap and form the scar
– Wound scar tissue is very fragile and susceptible to re-injury
– The color is red because of increased blood flow

3. Maturation or wound remodeling phase
• Wound contraction begins between 14-21 days, after the injury and lasts up to 2 years
• Scar shrinks and become flat
• Less red as the capillary regress

Factors that delay wound healing Age
• Nutrition- adequate nutrition that includes essential amino acids, vitamin A, C, and zinc is essential for normal wound repairs
• Infection-• Hormonal influences- the therapeutic administration of adrenal
corticosteroids can make:• Impairs phagocytosis• Inhibit fibroblast proliferation and function• Depresses the formation of granulation tissue• Inhibit wound contraction• Mask presence of infection by impairing normal inflammatory
response• Blood supply-• Poor blood flow may occur as result of swelling, arterial and
venous pathology

• Wound separation
• Presence of foreign bodies-
• Smoking- vasoconstriction caused by smoking, decreases blood supply to the wound, the carbon in smoke binds with hemoglobin and further diminishes oxygenation
• Obesity- the bulk and weight of adipose tissue causes poor vascularity
• Fluid and electrolyte balance-
• Immuno-suppression-
• Radiation therapy- the blood supply in irradiated tissue is decreased
HA(MSN) 205
![Page 206: Integumentary Disorders Presentation.ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062419/55a2051b1a28abee648b4610/html5/thumbnails/206.jpg)
• Handling of tissue- rough handling causes injury and delayed healing
• Edema- reduces blood supply by exerting pressure on blood vessels
• Medications
-Anti-inflammatory- decrease epithelization and wound contraction
-Corticosteroids- may mask presence of infection by impairing normal inflammatory response
-Anticoagulants- may cause hemorrhage
• Patient over activity- prevents approximation of wound edges

Cont’d• Wound stressors- like vomiting, coughing heavily,
and straining produces tension on wounds and destroys granulation tissue that prevents apposition of wound edges
• Poor general health- alters cellular function
• Duration of surgical procedure- the longer the time the higher the delay of wound healing
• Drainage accumulation- accumulation of drainages favors bacterial growth
• Bleeding (hemorrhage)- bleeding sites becomes a growth media for microorganisms

Complications of wound healing • Hypertrophic scar and keloids- due to excess
production of collagen tissue
• Contracture- shortening of muscle or scar tissue
• Delviscence
• Separation and disruption of previously joined wound edge
• It can be due to infection, inflammation, weak granulation tissue.
• Evisceration- excess growth of tissue protrudes above the surface of the healing wound.
• Adhesions- binding two surfaces or structures that normally are separate

Cont’d…• Major organ dysfunction-
• Herination- the surface layer remains intact but the deep layers separate permitting the underlying muscles/organs bulge
• Fistula- draining tunnel may form between two organs
