Figure 11. 1 Skin structure. Three-dimensional view of the skin, subcutaneous tissue, glands, and hairs.
The Major Functions of the Skin Perceiving touch, pressure, temperature, and pain via the nerve endings Protecting against mechanical, chemical, thermal, and solar damage Protecting against loss of water and electrolytes Regulating body temperature
The Major Functions of the Skin Repairing surface wounds through cellular replacement Synthesizing vitamin D Allowing identification through uniqueness of facial contours, skin and hair color, and fingerprints
Oil or Sebaceous Glands Produce Sebum That Is Usually Released in Hair Follicles
The Major Functions of the Cutaneous Glands Excreting uric acid, urea, ammonia, sodium, potassium, and other metabolic wastes Regulating temperature through evaporation of perspiration on the skin surface Protecting against bacterial growth on the skin surface
The Major Functions of the Cutaneous Glands Softening, lubricating, and waterproofing skin and hair Resisting water loss from the skin surface in low-humidity environments Protecting deeper skin regions from bacteria on the skin surface
Hair Thin Fiber Compound of Dead Keratinized Cells Vellus Terminal
Nails Thin Plates of Keratinized Epidermal Cells That Cover the Distal Ends of Fingers and Toes

Special Considerations Developmental, Psychosocial, Cultural, and Environmental
Developmental Considerations Pediatric Newborn skin is covered with vernix caseosa. Infants have skin that is thin, soft, and free of terminal hair. Milia and “Stork bites” are common, harmless markings in newborns Infants may be born with lanugo present Temperature regulation is inefficient in infants.
Figure 11. 3 Milia.
Figure 11. 4 Mongolian spots.
Developmental Considerations Pregnant Female Skin pigmentation increases. Development of melasma and the linea nigra are common
Figure 11. 6 Melasma.
Figure 11. 7 Linea nigra.
Developmental Considerations Geriatric Skin elasticity decreases with aging Sebum production decreases and causes dryness Perspiration decreases Decrease in melanin production resulting in graying hair Increased sensitivity to sunlight Nails tend to become thicker and more brittle
