Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What are the names of the stages or phases of healing that tissues go through?
A
acute inflammatory
B
repair/proliferation
C
remodeling
D
maturation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Wound healing is classically divided into 4 stages: (A) hemostasis, (B) inflammation, (C) proliferation, and (D) remodeling.

Detailed explanation-2: -The third phase of healing consists of remodeling, which begins two to three weeks after the onset of the lesion and can last for one year or more. The core aim of the remodeling stage is to achieve the maximum tensile strength through reorganization, degradation, and resynthesis of the extracellular matrix.

Detailed explanation-3: -The remodeling phase is also known as maturation. During remodeling, the water content of the wound reduces, and the collagen laid down during proliferation is gradually replaced by a more stable interwoven type III collagen.

Detailed explanation-4: -In order for your body to heal adequately it must undergo three phases of wound healing. Each of these three phases known as the inflammatory, proliferation and maturation phases are all required to ensure that your body heals and returns back to its normal function.

Detailed explanation-5: -An initial response to maintain homoeostasis. An inflammatory response to prevent infection. A proliferative phase to reconstitute the wound site. A remodelling phase where tissue strength and function are restored. 17-Jan-2023
