  1. INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM

  2. FUNCTION • PROTECTION • SEPARATES THE BODY FROM THE EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENT

  3. LAYERS • EPIDERMIS • DERMIS

  4. LAYERS OF THE EPIDERMIS • STRATUM CORNEUM • OUTERMOST LAYER • CONSISTS OF MANY LAYERS OF DEAD CELLS • CONTAINS KERATIN – WATERPROOF AND PREVENTS EVAPORATION OF BODY’S WATER • BARRIER TO PATHOGENS

  5. LAYERS OF THE EPIDERMIS • STRATUM GERMINATIVUM • INNER LAYER • WHERE MITOSIS TAKES PLACE • CONTAINS THE CELLS THAT PRODUCE KERATIN • CONTAIN MELANOCYTES • MELANIN AND VIT D PRODUCTION IS INCREASED BY EXPOSURE TO UV RAYS

  6. DID YOU KNOW… • EVERY MINUTE 30,000-40,000 DEAD SKIN CELLS FALL OFF OR ARE SLOUGHED OFF YOUR BODY!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!! • AN ALL NEW YOU EVERY MONTH!

  7. WITHIN THE EPIDERMIS • LANGERHANS CELLS – PHAGOCYTIZE FOREIGN MATERIAL

  8. DID YOU KNOW… • AN ADULT WILL HAVE MORE THAN 20 SQUARE FEET OF SKIN • YOU WILL SHED APPROXIMATELY 40 POUNDS OF SKIN DURING YOUR LIFETIME!!!!!

  9. BETWEEN THE EPIDERMIS AND DERMIS • PAPILLARY LAYER – ABUNDANT IN CAPILLARIES • BLISTER – SEPARATION OF THE EPIDERMIS FROM THE DERMIS • CALLUS – PRESSURE TO AN AREA THAT INCREASES MITOSIS

  10. DERMIS • FIBROBLASTS PRODUCE COLLAGEN (STRENGTH) AND ELASTIN (ELASTIC) • HAIR FOLLICLES – HAIR ROOT • NAIL FOLLICLES – NAIL ROOT • RECEPTORS – PAIN (FREE NERVE ENDINGS), OTHER RECEPTORS (ENCAPSULATED) • GLANDS • BLOOD VESSELS

  11. GLANDS • SEBACEOUS – SEBUM – PREVENTS DRYING OF THE SKIN AND GROWTH OF BACTERIA • CERUMINOUS – CERUMEN – KEEPS EARDRUM PLIABLE • SWEAT GLANDS – APOCRINE (AXILLARY AND GROIN) AND ECCRINE (ALL OVER BODY) FOR MAINTAINING NORMAL BODY TEMPERATURES

  12. BLOOD VESSELS • IN A WARM ENVIRONMENT, VESSELS DILATE TO BRING EXCESS HEAT TO THE BODY SURFACE • IN A COLD ENVIRONMENT, VESSELS CONSTRICT TO CONSERVE HEAT

  13. SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE • AKA SUPERFICIAL FASCIA • FUNCTION IS TO CONNECT THE DERMIS TO THE UNDERLYING MUSCLE • MADE OF AREOLAR CONNECTIVE TISSUE (STRENGTH AND PROTECTION) AND ADIPOSE TISSUE (STORES FATS AND NUTRIENTS)

  14. BURNS • FIRST-DEGREE – ONLY SUPERFICIAL EPIDERMIS IS BURNED, PAINFUL • SECOND-DEGREE – DEEPER LAYERS OF THE EPIDERMIS ARE AFFECTED, BLISTERED, PAINFUL • THIRD-DEGREE – EPIDERMIS IS GONE, MAY EXTEND TO DERMIS AND SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE, NOT PAINFUL SINCE PAIN RECEPTOR SITES ARE BURNED

  15. RULE OF 9’S
