Wound Healing
Description
Wound healing is a complex, well-orchestrated process occurring in four distinct yet overlapping phases. The process commences with bleeding and hemostasis, where the injury occurs, clot formation and platelet activation halt blood loss. Following this, inflammation sets in, combating infections and clearing debris. The proliferation phase ensues, involving fibroblast activation, angiogenesis, and granulation tissue formation. Lastly, remodeling occurs, where the extracellular matrix is restructured, and the tissue regains its tensile strength with the scar tissue formation. Understanding these biological events is pivotal for developing effective wound management strategies. [Adapted from GPT4, 2023]
