QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS 2026
> stoma? Answer:the part of the ostomy that is attached to the skin
> normal stoma? Answer:red and moist
> pale stoma? Answer:shows signs of anemia
> ischemia? Answer:deficiency of blood in a particular area
> hypoxia? Answer:inadequate amount of oxygen available to cells
> eschar? Answer:thick, leathery scab or dry crust that is necrotic and must
be removed before the stage can be determined accurately
> scale used for predicting pressure sore risk? Answer:braden scale
> debridement? Answer:removal of devitalized tissue and foreign material
> negative-pressure wound therapy? Answer:promotes wound healing and
wound closure through the application of uniform negative pressure on
wound bed, reduction in bacteria in the wound, and the removal of excess
wound fluid, while providing a moist wound healing environment; results in
mechanical tension on wound tissues, stimulating cell proliferation, blood
flow to wounds, and the growth of new blood vessels
> body mechanics? Answer:the use of proper body positions to provide
protection from the stress of movement and activity
> negative nitrogen balance? Answer:results in muscle wasting and
decreased physical energy for movement and work; caused by diseases
that are characterized by a larger breakdown of protein than that which is
manufactured
