Integumentary System

• I. Overview General structure composed
  of epidermis and a dermis, separated by a
  basement membrane with a subcutaneous layer
  underneath

• General Function (5)
• 1.protective covering
• 2.regulate body temp
• 3.houses sensory receptors
• 4.synthesizes various chemicals
• 5.excretes wastes

5
II. Epidermis layer

• Layers (5) of avascular stratified squamous tissue

6

• 1. stratum corneum composed of dead epidermal
  cells, fully keratanized (most superficial)
• 2. stratum lucidium in the thickened skin of
  palms and soles. Contains transparent protein
  resembling keratin.

7

• 3. stratum granulosum contain granules in the
  cells cytoplasm which die and become
  keratinized.
• 4. stratum spinosum a thick layer of tiny fibers
  in the cytoplasm (spiny when pulled apart)
• 5. stratum basale (basal layer) cells undergoing
  mitosis

9
Keratinization

• Strands of tough, fibrous, waterproof keratin
  proteins are synthesized and stored in cells
  causing hardening.

10

• epidermal cells undergo process keratinization,
  as they are pushed towards the surface
• Mitotic rate is normally EQUAL to that of those
  cells lost

11

• Mitotic rate INCREASES when friction occurs
  causing
• calluses on hands and feet
• corns (keratinized masses on toes)

12

• Overall Fxn Protect underlying tissues against
• Water loss (Wrinkly fingers)
• Mechanical injury
• Affects of harmful chemicals / pathogens

13
Melanocytes

• Melanocytes
• Structures lying deep in the epidermis
• Produce melanin fxn is to protect underlying
  cells from UV light
• Cytocrine secretion the transfer of granules of
  melanin into nearby epidermal cells.

III Dermal layer

• Layer of loose connective tissue binding
  epidermis to underlying tissues, such as muscles,
  adipose, etc
• Composed mainly of collagen elastin Avg.
  thickness 1-2 mm.
• 0.5 on eyelids, 3mm soles of
  feet
• Contains muscle fibers, nerve endings, and
  blood supply

17

• Basic fxn
• 1. blood vessels supply nutrients to all skin
  cells
• 2. regulate body temp.

18

• Nervous tissue scattered throughout the dermis
• Some carrying impulses to muscles / glands of the
  skin
• Some associated with various sensory receptors in
  the skin

19
Fingerprints

• Specialized structure Dermal papillae
• Uneven ridges formed during fetal development
• NO TWO sets are exactly alike!

21
IV Extension of Dermis, also called hypodermis/
3rd layer)

• Subcutaneous layer composed mainly of loose
  connective and adipose
• Layer containing majority of dermal blood vessels
• Therefore fxn insulates conserves body heat and
  impedes entrance of heat from outside

22
Types of injections

• 1. IM (Intramuscularly)EX vaccinations
• 2. SubQ (subcutaneously) EX insulin
• 3. Intradermally EX TB test
• 4. Transdermally EX birth control, smoking
  patch, pain patches

24
V Accessory organs of the skin

• 1. Hair follicles
• hair found almost all areas of the body
• each hair develops at base called follicle
• as newly formed cells develop and grow, older
  cells pushed towards surface and keratinize
  called hair shaft

25
(No Transcript)
26

• hair color genetically determined
• bundle of smooth muscle and one or more sebaceous
  glands attached to each hair follicle arrector
  pili muscle

27
2. Sebacious glands

• glands that secrete sebum, helping to keep skin
  and hair soft and waterproof
• In some regions, open directly to the skin
  surface
• 1. lips
• 2. corners of mouth
• 3. external reproductive parts

28
None found on

• Palms
• Soles

29
3. Nails

• -protective covers on the ends of fingers and
  toes (tactile)
• -undergo keratinization

30
4. Sweat glandsprimary fxcool body

• Excretes wastes
• located in nearly all areas of the skin
• Each gland consists of a coiled tube, lined with
  sweat secreting epithelial cells
• Sweat is primarily composed of water, also
  containing salt and urea

31

32
Types of sweat glands (3)

• Apocrine respond to emotional stress
• Eccrinerespond to elevated body temp.
• Specialized apocrine
• ceruminous gland-secretes earwax
• Mammary glands-secretes milk

33
V. Regulation of Body Temperature

• Normal or core body temp, is about 98.6 F, 37 C)
• Heat Production and loss
• Heat is by- product of cellular respiration

34
Heat

• Lost to outside environment by the following
  ways
• Evaporation
• Conduction
• Convection
• Radiation1 way to cool body
• Hyperthermia vs. Hypothermia

35
Problems with temperature regulation

• Humidity due to saturation
• EXhyperthermia- sweat glands activated but
  cannot evaporate sweat r/t hot humid day. Body
  temp. rises

36

• At risk age groups for Temperature related
  condition
• Very young
• Very old
• Very thin

37
VI. Skin Color

• Melanin Primary skin pigment. All humans have
  same concentration of melanocytes. Skin color is
  due to amt. of melanin sent to the epidermis.
• Genetics each person inherits genes for melanin
  production.

38

• Environment sunlight, uv light, x-ray
• Causes existing melanin to darken and stimulate
  additional melanin production

39
VII. Physiological factors

• 1. Oxygen content in blood.
• Normal / to high red blood causes pinkish look
  to skin
• Insufficient (Too low) ?02 bluish (cyanosis)

40

• 2. Additional skin pigmentation
• carotene in subcut. Causes yellowish look
  (Asian)
• 3. Variety of diseases
• EX Jaundice- infants or adults with liver
  disease.

41
VIII. Response to injuries

• Inflammation Is a response to injury in which
• Blood vessels dilate
• Membrane permeability increases
• Benefits of Inflammation are aid in healing by
  providing additional nutrients and 02 to tissue

42

• IX. Burns

43

44
1st degree burn

• Epidermis ONLY affected
• Redness and burning
• EX sunburn

45
Epidermal (1st degree) burn
46
2nd degree burn

• Damage to both the epidermis and dermis
• Damage not enough to PREVENT healing

47
Dermal (2nd degree) burn
48
Deep dermal (2nd degree) burn
49
3rd Degree burn

• ENTIRE epidermis, dermis, and accessory organs
  destroyed
• Tissue death

Moles are harmless skin growths that may be flat
or protruding. They vary in color from pink flesh
tones to dark brown or black.
60
Pediculosis
61
Decubitus pressure ulcer (Bed sore)
62
Where do pressure ulcers form?

• Where bone causes the greatest force on the skin
  and tissue.
• For bedridden persons, most pressure ulcers form
  on the lower back below the waist (sacrum), the
  hip bone (trochanter), and heels.
