Inflammatory Process


MAST CELLS.
 Immunoglobulin E antibody
IgE,
Antigens



Antigens stick to the mast cell IgE
antibodies, causing granules in the
mast cell to fire their contents into
the surrounding tissue.
This releases a host of inflammatory
materials - leukotrienes, tumor
necrosis factor, interleukin-4 and
other cytokines that turn on other
inflammatory cells.
These materials cause fluid to leak
from the capillaries and white cells
including neutrophils, T cells and
eosinophils to leave the circulation.
The end result is a "local
inflammatory response", a red, itchy
welt.

Coagulation Cascade Synopsis
This scanning electron micrograph shows the fine structure of
a blood clot. Platelets released from the circulation and exposed
to the air use fibrinogen from the blood plasma to spin a mesh
of fibrin.

Brady; Paramedic Care Principles and Practice
Diseases of Erythrocytes
Anemias

Anemia is a sign, not a separate disease process.



Signs and symptoms may not be present until the body is
stressed.
Differentiate chronic anemia from acute episode.
Treat signs and symptoms.


Maximize oxygenation and limit blood loss.
Establish IV therapy if indicated.
Diseases of Erythrocytes
Brady; Paramedic Care Principles and Practice
Diseases of Erythrocytes
Sickle Cell Disease

Normal red cells maintain
their shape as they pass
through the capillaries
and release oxygen to
the peripheral tissues
(upper panel).
Hemoglobin polymers
form in the sickle rell
cells with oxygen
release, causing them to
deform. The deformed
cells block the flow of
cells and interrupt the
delivery of oxygen to the
tissues (lower panel).
