ALL RIGHTS RESERVED FIRST PUBLISH OCTOBER 2024 Page 5/11 diabetes - Ans:--Uncontrolled diabetes may also affect circulation, causing blood to move more slowly, which makes it more difficult for the body to deliver nutrients to wounds. As a result, the injuries heal slowly or may not heal at all. nutrition - Ans:-Low protein levels will cause a decrease in collagen development, slowing the wound healing process. Adequate protein levels will help achieve optimal wound healing rates. Overall energy intake is also important, because if energy needs aren't met the body will use protein for energy rather than for wound healing. age - Ans:-Aging compromises the normal physiological process of wound healing, such as the change of skin structure, the decrease of growth factors, the deceleration of cell proliferation, and the weakening of migration ability, hence delaying wound healing. infection - Ans:-triggers the body's immune response, causing inflammation and tissue damage, as well as slowing the healing process. Stage 1 pressure ulcer - Ans:-intact skin with nonblanchable redness Stage 2 pressure ulcer - Ans:-partial thickness skin loss involving epidermis, dermis, or both stage 3 pressure ulcer - Ans:-full thickness skin loss with visible fat stage 4 pressure ulcer - Ans:-Full-thickness skin and tissue loss with exposed bone, muscle, or tendon ©GRACEAMELIA 2024/2025 ACADEMIC YEAR.
