Senescence

The ability to respond to stress, the amount of reserve capacity

• Genetics
• Lifestyle
• Environment

low risk of disease & disease related disability

physical & mental function decline due to poor genes & lifestyle

serious functional deficits caused from bad genes or developmental traits

• inflammation - 1st 10 days. platelet activation & clotting cascades used in prep for repair
• Proliferation - Granulation tissues & capillary buds are set in place for the collagen matrix
• Maturation & remodeling - fibrous tissue in place for scarring to take place, rebuild to reduce scarring and add skin integrity

• Stage I - skin intact no blanch
• Stage II - Partial thickness, open sore or blister
• Stage III - Full thickness can see fat

• Negative Pressure - Foam dressing
• Hyperbaric

• Gauze
• Transparent Film (super/part)
• Foam (Part/Full) - protectant

• 0 - Early malignancy only present in the layer that it began (carcinoma in situ)
• 1 - limited to the tissue of origin with no metastasis
• 2 - spreading into adjacent tissues & maybe lymph nodes
• 3 - spreading to adjacent tissues with high likelihood of lymph node involvement
• 4 - Metastasized beyond primary site

• family history
• mammography
• radiography
• endoscopy

chemo uses chemicals to fight cancer, bio attempts to make the body change the way it deals with the malignancy and radiation attempts to destroy the tumor
