Lecture(11-12-2013) Abdominal Quadrants And Integumentary System
Intended Learning Outcomes By the end of this lecture, students will learn: Abdominal Quadrants of the body Integumentary System
Lecture content Abdominal Quadrants of the body Integumentary System
Abdominal Quadrants and Regions • Because the abdominal cavity is a large area and contains many organs, it is useful to divide it into smaller sections. • One method divides the abdominal cavity into 4 quadrants. • A second method divides the abdominal cavity into 9 regions. • Physicians and health care professionals use quadrants or regions as a point of reference.
Abdominal Quadrants and Regions • The larger division of the abdominal cavity consists of four quadrants: right upper quadrant (RUQ), left upper quadrant (LUQ), right lower quadrant (RLQ), and left lower quadrant (LLQ).
Quadrants are useful in describing the location in the body in which a surgical procedure will be performed. • They also are useful in denoting locationof abnormal masses such as tumors. • The physician may pinpoint a patient’s abdominal pain in the RLQ. Such a finding could indicate a diagnosis of appendicitis, because the appendix is located in that quadrant. • Pain in another quadrant, such as the LLQ, would indicate a different diagnosis.
Medical imaging. (A) Chest radiograph indicating lymphaticenlargement in suspected lymphoma.

Medical and Surgical Procedures • Anastomosis • Connection between two vessels; surgical joining of two ducts, blood vessels to allow flow from one to the other
Cauterize • Process of burning abnormal tissue with electricity, freezing, heat, or chemicals(silver nitrate) • Cauterization is usually performed to destroy damaged or diseased tissues.
Integumentary System • The integumentary system consists of the skin and its accessory organs: the hair, nails, sebaceous glands, and sweat glands. • The skin is the largest organ in the body and protects the body from the external environment.. • Beneath the skin’s surface is a network of sensory receptors that register sensations of temperature, pain, and pressure. • The millions of sensory receptors and a vascular network aid the functions of the entire body in maintaining homeostasis, a stable internal environment of the body.
