Burn Injuries01:22

Burn Injuries

4.9K
Burn injuries occur when the skin and underlying tissues are damaged due to exposure to heat, electricity, chemicals, radiation, or friction. They can vary in severity, from minor superficial burns to severe deep burns that can be life-threatening.
The damage results in the death of skin cells, which can lead to a massive loss of fluid. Dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and renal and circulatory failure follow, which can be fatal. Burn patients are treated with intravenous fluids to offset...

Methods of reducing fever01:22

Methods of reducing fever

1.5K
The signs and symptoms of fever include hot and dry skin, flushed face, thirst, muscle aches, anorexia, headache, tachycardia, tachypnea, and fatigue. Elevated body temperature is reduced using two methods: pharmacological and nonpharmacological. Proper identification and treatment of the root cause of a fever is of utmost importance.

Decreased Body Temperature01:29

Decreased Body Temperature

1.1K
A decreased body temperature can occur in patients with hypothermia and frostbite. Heat loss with extended cold exposure overpowers the body's ability to create heat, resulting in hypothermia. Core temperature readings help classify hypothermia. Mild hypothermia is temperatures between 32 °C (89.6 °F) and 35°C (95 °F) and is caused by impaired thermoregulation. Moderate hypothermia is temperatures between 28 C (82.4 °F) and 32 °C (89.6 °F) caused by...

Increased Body Temperature

7.6K
A body temperature above  38°C  (100.4 °F) is known as fever or pyrexia, and a person with fever is termed 'febrile.' Typically, the hypothalamus, a part of the brain that acts as the body's thermostat, regulates body temperature through a thermoregulatory setpoint. It receives signals from cold and warm thermal receptors throughout the body and adjusts the body's temperature accordingly. Fever occurs when this hypothalamic setpoint is altered, usually in...

Skin Cancer01:30

Skin Cancer

6.5K
Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Photobiology
    • Skin Health

    Background:

    • Sunburn is a common and painful skin reaction to ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure.
    • Both acute and chronic sun exposure can lead to significant skin damage.
    • Repeated sunburn increases the risk of long-term skin health problems.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To summarize the effects of acute and chronic sun damage on the skin.
    • To highlight the progression of sun-induced skin alterations.
    • To emphasize the importance of preventing sunburn.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of clinical manifestations of sunburn.
    • Description of the pathophysiology of UV-induced skin damage.
    • Discussion of the long-term consequences of sun exposure.

    Main Results:

    • Acute sunburn presents with erythema, edema, and potential blistering within 12-24 hours.
    • Chronic sun damage results in leathery, wrinkled skin and actinic keratoses.
    • Significant sun damage can lead to the development of skin cancers.

    Conclusions:

    • Sunburn leads to both immediate and long-term skin damage.
    • Chronic sun exposure contributes to premature aging and increases skin cancer risk.
    • Preventing sunburn is the most effective approach to mitigating sun damage.
