- formation of physical barrier to spread of tissue damage or infection
- wound healing and tissue repair
four clinical signs of acute inflammation response
- rubor = redness
- tumor = swelling
- calor = heat
- dolor = pain
swelling
- due to presence of difference between capillary and external tissue bed increase
- low permeability in normal condition
- greater permeability in inflammation
- increased fluid influx not promptly balanced by lymphatic system
low permeability
- endothelium = fluid flow and small molecules permeate
- lymphatic vessels drain away this fluid maintaining constant tissue volume
greater permeability
- larger molecules move into the tissue at greater rate
rubor
- redness
- erythrocytes rush to injury area and accumulating there
tumor
- swelling
- local edema
calor
- heat
- increased cellular metabolic activity
- possible generation of pyrogens (fever induced substance) which are known to cause systemic fever
- local disturbance of fluid flow
dolor
- pain
- from edema and kinins

response to acute inflammation

granulation tissue
- hallmark of healing inflammation
- neovascularization or angiogenesis

healing inflammation
- pink, soft granular appearance on surface of healing wounds
- seen as early as 3-5 days of following implantation
neovascularization or angiogenesis
- proliferation, maturation, and organization of endothelial cells into capillary tubes
- budding or sprouting of pre existing vessels
- formation of new small blood vessels
wound healing response
- primary union = first intention
- secondary union = second intention
primary union
- wound edges approximated by surgical sutures
- without significant bacterial contamination
- clean surgical incisions
- minimal loss of tissue
secondary union
- large tissue defect
- extensive loss of cells and tissue
- original architecture not reconstituted
- large amounts of granulation tissue formed
- larger areas of fibrosis or sear formation
foreign body reaction
- macrophages
- multi nucleated foreign body giant cells that form upon coalescence of macrophages
- fibroblasts
- capillaries
- these cells persist at tissue implant interface
- if implant has smooth and flat surfaces = FBR composed of layer of macrophages one to two cells in thickness
- if implant has relatively rough surface = FBR composed of multiple layers of macrophages and foreign body giant cells at surface
- if implant has rough surface = FBR composed of macrophages and foreign body giant cells with varying degrees of granulation tissue
fibrosis and fibrous encapsulation
- occur at end stage of healing response
- usually it takes four or more weeks after implantation
- presence of neutrophils = persisting inflammatory challenge
- presence of foreign body giant cells = production of small particles by corrosion, depolymerization, dissolution or wear
- thickness of encapsulation depends on chemical activity of material
- capsules thickness increases with increase in relative motion between implant and tissue
- shape of implant: capsule will be thicker over sharp edges
type of infections
- delayed infection

major physiological events during an inflammatory response
- immediate vasoconstriction of blood vessels leading away from site

- decreased velocity of blood flow to site = leucocytes are able to slow down and adhere to vascular endothelium
- increased expression of vascular endothelial adhesion molecules = leucocytes are able to attach to vascular endothelium
- increased vascular permeability = fluid enters tissue
- influx of phagocytic cells in to tissues = may be due to increased margination and extravasation
