A continuous flow of oxygen is needed to maintain soft tissue viability.
True or False (L3) - CORRECT ANSWER: False
A prevalence study is more accurate than an incidence study in capturing the rate of agency
acquired skin breakdown. (L2)
True or False - CORRECT ANSWER: False
A prevalence study is the percentage of patients who have breakdown at a given point in time.
(L2)
True or False - CORRECT ANSWER: True
A WCN documents a wound as being of mixed etiology. What is the nurse describing? (17)
A. Patient history reveals exposure to only one mechanical stressor
B. The wound is limited to the superficial skin and tissue layers
C. Features of both superficial and deeper injury are manifested
D. Patient positioning affected the development of the wound - CORRECT ANSWER: C --
superficial skin loss with evidence of deeper damage
,Alkaline products should generally be avoided because they remove protective oils from the skin
and alter the protective "acid mantle." (L1)
True or False - CORRECT ANSWER: True
An incidence study addresses the percentage of patients who develop an ulcer after admission.
(L2)
True or False - CORRECT ANSWER: True
As long as tissue interface pressures are maintained at a level below 25 mmHg, the patient will
not develop a pressure injury. (L3)
True or False - CORRECT ANSWER: False
Atrophy of subcutaneous tissue increases the risk of pressure injury due to the decreased ability
to redistribute weight in soft tissue and increases the risk of shear damage due to the loss of
"shock absorbing" layer. (L1)
True or False - CORRECT ANSWER: True
