 Layers of Skin | Epidermis, Dermis, Subcutis |
| Epidermis (provides?) | (provides) protection (and keeps the body from dehydrating) |
| Dermis | connected to the epidermis (w/ fingerlike projections called papillae) |
| Subcutis | loosely attaches the skin to the underlying tussues and structures (SQ fluids, meds, vaccines given here) |
| Sebaceous Glands (produces?) | (produces) sebum (an oily substance that keeps the skin and fur relatively soft, pliable, and waterproof) |
| Sweat Glands (produce?) | (produce) watery secretions (on cats and dogs they are located on the tongue and foot pads) |
| Circumoral glands | (pheromone producing) glands around the mouth of a cat |
| Perianal Glands | pheromone producing glands AROUND the dogs anus |
| Anal Glands | pair of pheromone glands near the anus (located @4&8 o'clock positions around the anal opening, expressed during defecation) |
| Toenails | (specialized) keratinized epithelial cells |
| Quick | dermal tissue you may be able to see thru a white nail |
| (each hair follicle has an) arrector pili muscle (responsible for this?) | piloerection (used for thermoregulation or dramatic display) |
| Whiskers | (referred to as) tactile hairs (they are far more sensitive to touch) |
| Wound Healing (4stages) | Inflammatory stage, Debridement stage, Repair stage, Maturation stage |
| Inflammatory stage, Debridement stage, Repair stage, Maturation stage | Wound Healing (4stages) |
| Alopecia | condition of hair loss |
| FAD | Flea Allergy Dermatitis |
| Dermatitis | inflammation of the skin |
| Pruritus | state of itching |
| Urticaria | wheal formation on the ski (aka hives) |
| Onychectomy | surgical removal of a nail |
| Pyoderma | skin pus |
| Dermatophytosis | ringworm (condition of ring like skin lesions) |
| Fibroplasia | process of forming fibrous tissue (as in wound healing) |
| bathing steps | protect eyes w lube, protect ears w cotton balls, trim nails w clippers, brush out, get wet/soak, lather/cleanse/ rinse, dip, dry, clip hair |
| (steps to) express anal glands | lift tail, glove hand, insert lubed finger, locate anal gland, use outside thumb, draw thumb and finger caudally, rotate finger to other sac, repeat, apply ointment |
| enema solutions | tap water; 2-5ml per lb, repeat in 30min, mineral oil; 1ml per lb, repeat 1-2 hrs, premade solutions; |
| enema steps | fill solution into bag, pinch off tubing using a clamp (to prevent leakage), lube catheter tip, inset tip about 3inches, release clamp and let gravity work, do not force liquid into rectum (keep pressure low), close clamp, remove from rectum |
| hemostasis | stoppage of bleeding |
| macrophages | large phagocytes |
| epithelialization | formation of skin across the wound |
| purulent exudates | pus (an exudate consisting of leukocytes, liquefied dead tissue debris, dead & living bacteria.) |
| thrombus | blood clot |
| Epidermis, Dermis, Subcutis | layes of skin |
| fibroblast | an immature cell from which connective tissue can develop |
| mast cell | histamine cell (cell that secretes heparin and histamine; allergic reaction) |
| melanocyte | pigment cell (cell that produces melanin) |
| Inflammatory stage, Debridement stage, Repair stage, Maturation stage | wound healling (stages) |
| tap water; 2-5ml per lb, repeat in 30min, mineral oil; 1ml per lb, repeat 1-2 hrs, premade solutions; | enema solutions |
