I. Introduction
A stabbing is the penetration with a sharp or pointed object at close range. Stab connotes purposeful action, as by an assassin or murderer, but it is also possible to accidentally stab oneself or others, although such stabbings are rarely serious and still more rarely fatal. Stabbing differs from slashing or cutting in that the motion of the object used in a stabbing generally moves perpendicular to and directly into the victim's body, rather than being drawn across it. Stabbings today are common among gangs and in prisons because knives are cheap, easy to acquire (or manufacture), and highly concealable. The threat of stabbing is perhaps the most common form of robbery. The human skin has a somewhat elastic property as a self-defense; when the human body is stabbed by a thin object such as a kitchen knife, the skin often closes tightly around the object and closes again if the object is removed, which can trap some blood within the body. Some have speculated that the fuller, an elongated concave depression in a metal blade, functions to let blood out of the body in order to cause more damage. This misconception has led to fullers becoming widely known as "blood grooves". The fuller is actually a structural reinforcement of the blade similar in design to a metal "I" beam used in construction. However, internal bleeding is just as dangerous as external bleeding; if enough blood vessels are severed to cause serious injury, the skin's elasticity will do nothing to prevent blood from exiting the circulatory system and accumulating uselessly in other parts of the body. Death from stabbing is caused by shock, severe blood loss, infection, or loss of functioning of an essential organ such as the heart or lungs. Complications associated with open wounds may include infection, cellulitis, overgrowth of scar tissue (keloid formation), gangrene, bleeding (wound hemorrhage), overwhelming systemic infection (sepsis), and tetanus, a potentially fatal infection of the nervous system. Treatment of stabbed wound includes thoroughly cleaned, nonviable tissue and debris removed (debridement), and the wound closed with stitches. Wounds with a high-risk of infection (puncture wounds, human and animal bites) or wounds 12 to 24 hours old are left open and then closed with stitches, if needed, in 5 to 7 days (delayed primary closure). In larger wounds which are more than 24 hours old, the area is cleansed, dbrided and then packed with wet to dry dressings. The wound is then either allowed to heal naturally, allowing scar formation, or it may be closed surgically in 5 to 7 days. The repaired wounds are covered with an antibiotic ointment and appropriate bandage. A tetanus shot (tetanus toxoid) may be given if over 10 years has passed since the individual's last booster shot, or if there is a question about when the individual was last vaccinated. If the individual has never been immunized against tetanus, human tetanus immune globulin may be given. In serious injuries, the first step is to ensure an adequate airway. An artificial airway (endotracheal intubation) may be necessary. Supplemental oxygen is administered. Intravenous fluid and blood may be administered to help maintain an adequate blood pressure if there is
2 evidence of shock or excessive bleeding. A tube may be placed in the stomach (nasogastric tube) to decompress and drain excess stomach contents, and a bladder catheter may be necessary to drain and monitor urine output. Impaled or embedded objects are left in place until the individual has a stable blood pressure. These objects are then removed in the operating room (removal of foreign body).

The integumentary system is the organ system that protects the body from damage, comprising the skin and its appendages including hair, scales, feathers, and nails. The integumentary system has a variety of functions; it may serve to waterproof, cushion, and protect the deeper tissues, excrete wastes, and regulate temperature, and is the attachment site for sensory receptors to detect pain, sensation, pressure, and temperature. In humans the integumentary system also provides vitamin D synthesis. olopongities The integumentary system is the largest organ system. In humans, this system accounts for about 16 percent of total body weight and covers 1.5-2m2 of surface area.[4] It distinguishes, separates, protects and informs the animal with regard to its surroundings. Small-bodied invertebrates of aquatic or continually moist habitats respire using the outer layer (integument). This gas exchange system, where gases simply diffuse into and out of the interstitial fluid, is called integumentary exchange. subcutaneous tissue. Functions The integumentary system has multiple roles in homeostasis. All body systems work in an interconnected manner to maintain the internal conditions essential to the function of the body. The skin has an important job of protecting the body and acts as the bodys first line of defense against infection, temperature change, and other challenges to homeostasis. Functions include:

15 outer layer in a process called terminal differentiation. The stratum corneum is the most superficial layer and is made up of dead cells, proteins, and glycolipids. The protein keratin stiffens epidermal tissue to form fingernails. Nails grow from thin area called the nail matrix; growth of nails is 1 mm per week on average. The lunula is the crescent-shape area at the base of the nail, this is a lighter colour as it mixes with the matrix cells. Dermis The dermis is the middle layer of skin, composed of loose connective tissues such as collagen with elastin arranged in a diffusely bundled and woven pattern. These layers serve to give elasticity to the integument, allowing stretching and conferring flexibility, while also resisting distortions, wrinkling, and sagging. The dermal layer provides a site for the endings of blood vessels and nerves. Many chromatophores are also stored in this layer, as are the bases of integumental structures such as hair, feathers, and glands. The dermis is the layer of skin beneath the epidermis that consists of connective tissue and cushions the body from stress and strain. The dermis is tightly connected to the epidermis by a basement membrane. It also harbors many Mechanoreceptors (nerve endings) that provide the sense of touch and heat. It contains the hair follicles, sweat glands, sebaceous glands, apocrine glands, lymphatic vessels and blood vessels. The blood vessels in the dermis provide nourishment and waste removal from its own cells as well as from the Stratum basale of the epidermis. The dermis is structurally divided into two areas: a superficial area adjacent to the epidermis, called the papillary region, and a deep thicker area known as the reticular region. Papillary region The papillary region is composed of loose areolar connective tissue. This is named for its fingerlike projections called papillae, that extend toward the epidermis. The papillae provide the dermis with a "bumpy" surface that interdigitates with the epidermis, strengthening the connection between the two layers of skin. Reticular region The reticular region lies deep in the papillary region and is usually much thicker. It is composed of dense irregular connective tissue, and receives its name from the dense concentration of collagenous, elastic, and reticular fibres that weave throughout it. These protein fibres give the dermis its properties of strength, extensibility, and elasticity. Also located within the reticular region are the roots of the hair, sebaceous glands, sweat glands, receptors, nails, and blood vessels. Subdermis (aka subcutaneous layer, hypodermis, or superficial fascia)
16 Although technically not part of the integumentary system, the subdermis is the layer of tissue directly underneath the dermis. It is composed mainly of connective and adipose tissue or fatty tissue. Its physiological functions include insulation, the storage of energy, and aiding in the anchoring of the skin, attach the skin to underlying bone and muscle as well as supplying it with blood vessels and nerves. It consists of loose connective tissue and elastin. The main cell types are fibroblasts, macrophages and adipocytes (the hypodermis contains 50% of body fat). Fat serves as padding and insulation for the body. Another name for the hypodermis is the

Wound Healing
Wound healing, or wound repair, is an intricate process in which the skin (or another organ) repairs itself after injury. In normal skin, the epidermis (outermost layer) and dermis (inner or deeper layer) exists in a steady-state equilibrium, forming a protective barrier against the external environment. Once the protective barrier is broken, the normal (physiologic) process of wound healing is immediately set in motion. The classic model of wound healing is divided into three or four sequential, yet overlapping, phases: (1) hemostasis (not considered a phase by some authors), (2) inflammatory, (3) proliferative and (4) remodeling. Upon injury to the skin, a set of complex biochemical events takes place in a closely orchestrated cascade to repair the damage. Within minutes post-injury, platelets (thrombocytes) aggregate at the injury site to form a fibrin clot. This clot acts to control active bleeding (hemostasis). In the inflammatory phase, bacteria and debris are phagocytosed and removed, and factors are released that cause the migration and division of cells involved in the proliferative phase. The proliferative phase is characterized by angiogenesis, collagen deposition, granulation tissue formation, epithelialization, and wound contraction. In angiogenesis, new blood vessels are formed by vascular endothelial cells. In fibroplasia and granulation tissue formation, fibroblasts grow and form a new, provisional extracellular matrix (ECM) by excreting collagen and fibronectin. Concurrently, re-epithelialization of the epidermis occurs, in which epithelial cells proliferate and 'crawl' atop the wound bed, providing cover for the new tissue. In contraction, the wound is made smaller by the action of myofibroblasts, which establish a grip on the wound edges and contract themselves using a mechanism similar to that in smooth muscle cells. When the cells' roles are close to complete, unneeded cells undergo apoptosis. In the maturation and remodeling phase, collagen is remodeled and realigned along tension lines and cells that are no longer needed are removed by apoptosis. However, this process is not only complex but fragile, and susceptible to interruption or failure leading to the formation of chronic non-healing wounds. Factors which may contribute to this include diabetes, venous or arterial disease, old age, and infection. Wound Healing Process
Approximate times of the different phases of wound healing, with substantial variation depending on wound size and healing conditions.
18 V. Nursing Theories Dorothea Orems Self-Care Theory Defined Nursing: The act of assisting others in the provision and management of self-care to maintain/improve human functioning at home level of effectiveness. Orems model focuses on each individuals ability to perform self-care, defined as the practice of activities that individuals initiate and perform on their own behalf in maintaining life, health, and well-being. The basic premise of the model is that individuals can take responsibility for their health and the health of others. In a general sense, individuals have the capacity to care for themselves or their dependents The Orem model is based upon the philosophy that all "patients wish to care for themselves". They can recover more quickly and holistically if they are allowed to perform their own self cares to the best of their ability. It also identified 3 related concepts: Self-care activities an Individual performs independently throughout life to promote and maintain personal well-being. Self-care deficit results when self-care agency (Individuals ability) is not adequate to meet the known self-care needs. Nursing System nursing interventions needed when individual is unable to perform the necessary self-care activities: Wholly compensatory nurse provides entire self-care for the client. Partial compensatory nurse and client perform care; client can perform selected self-care activities, but also accepts care done by the nurse for needs the client cannot meet independently. Supportive-educative nurses actions are to help the client develop/learn their own self-care abilities through knowledge, support and encouragement. y Jean Watson: Theory of Human Caring
Jean Watsons Theory of Transpersonal Caring also called Theory of Human Caring or The Caring Model was developed in 1979. This theory has evolved over the years but the basic premise remains the same. It emphasizes the humanistic aspects of nursing in combination with scientific knowledge. Watson designed this theory to bring meaning and focus to nursing as a distinct health profession. Watson believes that: y Caring is an endorsement of professional nurses identity y Medicines identity is that of caring y Florence Nightingale appeared to agree in her statement: It is the surgeon who saves a persons life .it is the nurse who helps this person live According to Watson, the nurses role is to: y Establish a caring relationship with patients y Treat patients as holistic beings (body, mind and spirit) y Display unconditional acceptance y Treat patients with a positive regard y Display unconditional acceptance y Treat patients with a positive regard y Promote health through knowledge and intervention y Spend uninterrupted time with patients: caring moments Watson defines interactions or caring moments as follows: y The nurse and patient make contact.
19 y The nurse enters the patients room, a feeling of expectation is created. Watson believes that through the nurses attitude and competence, a patients world can become: y Larger or smaller y Brighter or drab y Rich or dull y Threatening or secure Watson also believes these moments transform both the patient and nurse and that they are linked together. y Hildegard Peplaus Interpersonal Relations Theory
Defined Nursing: An interpersonal process of therapeutic interactions between an Individual who is sick or in need of health services and a nurse especially educated to recognize, respond to the need for help and a maturing force and an educative instrument Identified 4 phases of the Nurse Patient relationship: 1. Orientation individual/family has a felt need and seeks professional assistance from a nurse (who is a stranger). This is the problem identification phase. 2. Identification where the patient begins to have feelings of belongingness and a capacity for dealing with the problem, creating an optimistic attitude from which inner strength ensues. Here happens the selection of appropriate professional assistance. 3. Exploitation the nurse uses communication tools to offer services to the patient, who is expected to take advantage of all services. 4. Resolution where patients needs have already been met by the collaborative efforts between the patient and the nurse. Therapeutic relationship is terminated and the links are dissolved, as patient drifts away from identifying with the nurse as the helping person.
