2026 QUESTIONS WITH FULL ANSWERS
GRADED A+
◉ Suspected Deep Tissue Injury. Answer: -Purple or maroon
localized area of discolored intact skin or blood-filled blister due to
damage of underlying soft tissue from pressure and/or shear.
-depth unknown
◉ Primary Wound Healing. Answer: -wound that is closed
-surgical incision
-wound that is sutured or stapled
-heals quickly with minimal scar formation
◉ Secondary Wound Healing. Answer: -wound edges not
approximated
-pressure ulcers, surgical wounds that have tissue loss or
contamination
-wounds heal by granulation tissue formation
◉ Tertiary Wound Healing. Answer: -wound that is left open to air
for several days, then wound edges are approximated
,-wounds that are contaminated and require observation for signs of
infection
-closure of wound is delayed until risk of infection is resolved
◉ Acute Wound. Answer: -wound that proceeds through an orderly
and timely reparative process
-ex: trauma, surgical incision
-wound edges are clean and intact
◉ Chronic Wound. Answer: -wound that fails to proceed through an
orderly and timely process
-ex: vascular compromise, chronic inflammation, or repetitive
insults to tissue
-continued exposure to insult impedes wound healing (diabetes)
◉ 4 phases of wound healing. Answer: 1. Hemostasis
2. Inflammation
3. Proliferation
4. Maturation
◉ Dihiscence. Answer: wound pulls apart at the suture line
, ◉ Eviseration. Answer: Protrusion of the internal organ through an
incision
◉ Hemorrhage. Answer: Excessive or profuse bleeding
◉ Hematoma. Answer: a solid swelling of clotted blood within the
tissues.
◉ Wound Infection is..... Answer: the second most common health
care associated infection
◉ Purulent Drainage. Answer: thick yellow, green, tan or brown
drainage. usually indicative of an infection
◉ Serous Drainage. Answer: clear, watery plasma
◉ Serousanguinous Drainage. Answer: pale, pink, watery, mixture of
clear and red fluid
◉ Sanguineous. Answer: bloody drainage
◉ Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Sore Risk. Answer: -sensory
perception, moisture, activity, mobility, nutrition, friction and shear
