and Practices 4th Edition All Chapters
Hypodermis - ANSWER>>Insulates the body & Stores Calories
Epidermis - ANSWER>>Assists with endogenous Vitamin D production
Langerhans' Cell - ANSWER>>Epidermal cells that assist with infection control
Basement Membrane - ANSWER>>Selective filter for substances moving between
the epidermis and the dermis
Epidermal Appendages - ANSWER>>Hair, glands, and nails
The stratum corneum can be found in the: - ANSWER>>Epidermis
A full-thickness wound involves the following tissue layers: -
ANSWER>>Epidermis, Dermis & Subcutaneous Layers
An abrasion commonly involves the (epidermis/dermis) - ANSWER>>Epidermis
What cell produces histamine? - ANSWER>>Mast Cells
When examining a patient's pressure ulcer, you are able to identify the patient's
greater trochanter within the wound bed. How would you classify the extent of
wound involvement? - ANSWER>>Full-Thickness
Subcutaneous tissue consists of what? - ANSWER>>Adipose & Fascia
The sebaceous gland is located in the: - ANSWER>>Dermis
,The inflammatory phase of wound healing usually lasts: - ANSWER>>4-6 days
Chronic wounds contain: increase/decrease MMPs & TIMPs - ANSWER>>High
levels of MMPs and low levels of TIMPs
Platelets are responsible for: - ANSWER>>The release of chemical mediators &
growth factor
Hypertrophic Scar - ANSWER>>
A wound that is closed by Primary Intention would be: - ANSWER>>A wound
closed by stitches or staples
A severely contaminated wound should be allowed to close by: -
ANSWER>>Delayed Wound Primary Closure
TRUE/FALSE: The three phases of wound healing overlap, and the cells involved in
one phase produce the chemical stimuli that move the wound into the next
phase. - ANSWER>>True
TRUE/FALSE: The classic signs of inflammation seen in the inflammatory phase of
wound healing (localized redness, heat, swelling, pain, and decreased function)
mean that the wound is infected. - ANSWER>>False
TRUE/FALSE: Partial-thickness wounds heal faster than full-thickness wounds -
ANSWER>>True
TRUE/FALSE: Wounds should heal faster if both the patient and the patient's
wound are kept cool. - ANSWER>>False
Complete the statement: Uncomplicated surgical wounds usually heal
(slower/faster) than traumatic wounds. - ANSWER>>Faster
, Covering a wound with a dressing facilitates wound healing because: -
ANSWER>>A dry wound progresses through the inflammation phase more slowly
than a moist wound.
Why does wound infection impair wound healing? - ANSWER>>bacteria compete
with body cells for energy and oxygen
How does debridement facilitate wound healing? - ANSWER>>Debridement
removes barriers to healing.
TRUE/FALSE: Change in wound surface area can be used to predict wound
healing. - ANSWER>>True
TRUE/FALSE: Wound debridement is vital to wound healing and should be
performed on healthy tissue only. - ANSWER>>False
Antiseptics should be routinely used for: - ANSWER>>Surgical scrubs
Photographic wound measurement is: - ANSWER>>A nice adjunct for wound
measurement
Necrotic tissue that is yellow or tan in color and stringy or mucinous in
consistency is called: - ANSWER>>Slough
What occurs when the tissue under the wound edges becomes eroded? -
ANSWER>>Undermining
When assessing for periwound edema your thumb leaves an impression about 2-4
mm in depth that rebounds in less than 15 seconds. How would you describe your
results? - ANSWER>>+2 pitting edema
Normal capillary refill is: - ANSWER>>3 seconds
