Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "The Integumentary System".

This medical PowerPoint presentation talks about the integumentary system which is the organ system that includes the skin and its associated structures, such as hair, nails, and glands. It is responsible for protecting the body from external damage and regulating body temperature.

The skin is the largest organ of the integumentary system and consists of three layers: the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous layer. The epidermis is the outermost layer and is composed of several layers of cells, including keratinocytes, melanocytes, and Langerhans cells. The dermis is the middle layer and contains blood vessels, nerves, hair follicles, and sweat glands. The subcutaneous layer is the deepest layer and contains adipose tissue and connective tissue.

The skin has several functions, including protection, sensation, thermoregulation, and vitamin D synthesis. It protects the body from physical and chemical damage, as well as from microorganisms and ultraviolet radiation. The skin contains sensory receptors that allow us to feel touch, pressure, heat, and cold. It also plays a role in regulating body temperature through sweating and blood vessel dilation or constriction. Finally, the skin synthesizes vitamin D when exposed to sunlight.

Hair and nails are also part of the integumentary system. Hair is made of dead cells that grow from hair follicles in the dermis. It provides protection, insulation, and sensory input. Nails are also made of dead cells and grow from the nail matrix in the epidermis. They protect the tips of fingers and toes and assist in grasping objects.

The integumentary system also includes several types of glands, including sweat glands, sebaceous glands, and ceruminous glands. Sweat glands produce sweat, which helps regulate body temperature and excrete waste products. Sebaceous glands produce sebum, an oily substance that lubricates the skin and hair. Ceruminous glands produce earwax, which helps protect the ear canal from foreign objects and microorganisms.

Overall, the integumentary system plays a critical role in protecting the body from external harm and regulating internal temperature, as well as contributing to sensory perception and vitamin D synthesis.

Define the combining forms used in building words that relate to the Integumentary system. Identify the meaning of related abbreviations. Name the common diagnoses, laboratory tests and clinical procedures used in testing and treating the Integumentary system.
Slide 3-

3 Objectives Part 2 Objectives cont'd Define the major pathological conditions of the Integumentary system. Define surgical terms related to the Integumentary system. List common pharmacological agents used in treating the Integumentary system.
Slide 4-

4 Structure and Function Structure and Function Skin is the largest organ of the body, and serves to: Protect against injury Protect against the sun UV rays Prevent entry of harmful microorganisms Maintain the proper internal body temperature Excrete waste materials through perspiration Function as a sense organ
Slide 5-

5 Three Layers of Skin Structure and Function Three Layers of the Skin
Slide 6-

6 Epidermal Layer Structure and Function Epidermal Layer Outermost skin layer Consists of several sublayers Top sublayer is called the stratum corneum Nonvascular Keratin is found in the cells Stratum germinativum is the bottom sublayer where new cells are produced that push up toward the stratum corneum epidermis
Slide 7-

7 Dermal Layer Structure and Function Dermal Layer Also called the corium Contains two sublayers the papillary layer and the reticular layer Holds many capillaries, lymph cells, nerve endings, sebaceous and sweat glands and hair follicles Collagen fibers are found in the connective tissue and when collagen fibers stretch, they form striae dermis
Slide 8-

8 Subcutaneous Layer Structure and Function Subcutaneous Layer Also called the hypodermis Found between the dermal layer and the inner organs Consists of adipose or fatty tissue and some fibrous tissue Fatty tissue protects inner organs and maintains body temperature Blood vessels and nerves are present subcutaneous
Slide 9-

9 Hair Structure and Function Hair Hair grows out of the epidermis to cover parts of the body. The shaft is what we see and the root lies below the surface of the skin. Hair color is determined by the presence of melanin. Baldness or alopecia may result from heredity, disease, injury, or chemotherapy.
Slide 10-

10 Nails Structure and Function Nails Nails are plates made of hard keratin that cover the dorsal surface of the fingers and toes. At the base of most nails a lunula or whitish half-moon is an area where keratin and other cells have mixed with air. The cuticle is a narrow band of epidermis that surrounds the base or bottom of nails.
Slide 11-

11 Glands Structure and Function Glands Sudoriferous glands, also known as sweat glands, secrete outward toward the surface of the body (exocrine) and are located almost everywhere on the body. The excretion of sweat is called diaphoresis. Types of exocrine glands

Slide 13-

13 Combining Forms Part 2 Combining Form Meaning melan(o) myc(o) onych(o) pil(o) seb(o) steat(o) trich(o) Combining Forms

14 Dermatology The field of Dermatology studies, diagnoses, and treats ailments of the skin. Diagnostic, Procedural and Laboratory Tests
Slide 15-

15 Exudate/Fungi Exudate (pus) is material that passes out of tissues. The laboratory can use this to determine the types of bacteria present. A scraping can also be done and placed on a growth medium to identify the presence of fungi. Diagnostic, Procedural and Laboratory Tests
Slide 16-

16 Test for Disease and Allergies Did you know that the skin can be tested for various diseases and allergies? Tests for Allergies Patch test Scratch test Intradermal tests Tests for Diseases Mantoux test used to detect tuberculosis. Schick test used to detect diptheria. Diagnostic, Procedural and Laboratory Tests
Slide 17-

17 Skin Lesions Both abnormalities and certain internal diseases show dermatological symptoms. Skin Lesions Primary lesions are areas of tissue that are altered because of a pathological condition. Secondary lesions result from changes in the primary lesions. Vascular lesions are blood vessel lesions that show through the skin. Pathological Terms
