Grafts and Transplants
Tissue transplant from the same person.
What is autograft?
Immediate hypersensitivity triggered by IgE, causing inflammation, pruritis, hives, or anaphylaxis
What is Type I?
Components include lymph nodes, spleen, tonsils, thymus, bone marrow, and this circulation system.
What is lymphatic?
pain, swelling, redness, warmth.
What are LOCAL signs of inflammation (or infection0?
Chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease affecting multiple systems
What is lupus?
Generalized response to stressors with alarm, resistance, and exhaustion stages.
What is General Adaptation Syndrome?
Tissue transplant from a genetically identical twin.
What is isograft?
Cytotoxic hypersensitivity where IgG reacts to antigens on cells, like in blood transfusio
What is Type II?
Acquired by direct exposure to an antigen naturally.
What is natural active immunity?
fever, fatigue, weakness, headache, nausea.
What are systemic signs of inflammation (or infection)?
Disorder where immune system attacks self antigens.
What is autoimmune?
Name for harmful effects if unable to cope with stressor.
What is distress?
Tissue transplant from the same species but different individual.
What is allograft?
Immune complex hypersensitivity with antigen-antibody deposits causing inflammation, as in lupus
What is Type III?
Purposefully introduced antigen, like vaccination.
What is artificial active immunity?
First line of defense
What is the first line of defense?
Compromised immune response, leading to opportunistic infections.
What is immunodeficiency?
Method to calculate burn surface area.
What is the Rule of Nines?
Tissue transplant from a different species.
What is xenograft?
Delayed, cell-mediated hypersensitivity by sensitized T cells, like TB test or contact dermatitis.
What is Type IV?
Antibodies transferred from mother to fetus or via breast milk.
What is natural passive immunity?
Second line: non-specific response to injury.
What is inflammation?
Caused by HIV destroying helper T cells.
What is AIDS?
Healing when wound edges are well approximated, with minimal scarring.
What is primary intention?
The four main types of tissue transplants: autograft, isograft, allograft, and this.
What is xenograft?
Severe, life-threatening Type I reaction with low blood pressure, airway obstruction, and hypox
What is anaphylaxis
Injection of antibodies from another person or animal.
What is artificial passive immunity?
What is inflammation?
What is the third line of defense?
Symptoms include opportunistic infections by normally harmless organisms.
What is immunodeficiency (or AIDS)?
Decreased blood volume and pressure, potentially leading to organ damage.
What is shock?
