Question 1
A nurse is assessing a patient's risk
for pressure injury using the Braden
Scale. Which factor
does not contribute to the Braden
Scale score?
A. Sensory perception
B. Moisture
C. Age
D. Nutrition
Correct Answer: C. Age
Rationale: Age is not a direct
category in the Braden Scale, though
it may influence risk. The Braden
, 4
Scale assesses six areas: sensory
perception, moisture, activity,
mobility, nutrition, and friction/shear.
Question 2
Which type of wound healing involves
the wound edges being brought
together surgically?
A. Secondary intention
B. Primary intention
C. Tertiary intention
D. Delayed union
Correct Answer: B. Primary
intention

occurs when wound edges are clean
and can be sutured, stapled, or glued
