Anatomical Considerations in Trauma
Natural disease processes generally involve specific organ systems: Cardiovascular Disease involves the heart and/or blood vessels; Pulmonary Disease involves the lungs, etc.
Trauma, on the other hand, involves areas or regions of the body and sometimes all the 'organ systems' in that area: for example, blunt trauma to the chest may cause damage to skin, skeletal muscle and ribs (musculoskeletal system), lungs, heart, and blood vessels.
The groups of structures damaged are called "Injury Patterns," not to be confused with Pattern Injuries which are discussed in our text.
What can we learn by looking at the Injury Pattern distribution?
What are some of the factors to be considered in their evaluation?
Whether the statement "Stem cells, being stem cells, are by definition the same in all tissues" is true or false.
