EMORY WOUND Examination MCQs (Questions 1–50)


1.

,A nurse assessing a bedridden patient notices
nonblanchable erythema over the sacrum with intact skin
and localized warmth. Which pressure injury stage should
be documented?
A. Stage 2 pressure injury
B. Stage 1 pressure injury
C. Deep tissue pressure injury
D. Unstageable pressure injury
Answer: B. Stage 1 pressure injury
Rationale: Stage 1 pressure injuries present with intact
skin and nonblanchable redness over a bony prominence.
Warmth, tenderness, and firmness may also occur before
tissue breakdown develops.


2.
A patient with diabetes reports numbness in both feet and
develops a plantar ulcer beneath the first metatarsal head.
Which intervention is most important initially?
A. Daily soaking of the foot
B. Aggressive massage of surrounding tissues
C. Offloading pressure from the affected foot
D. Application of dry gauze only
Answer: C. Offloading pressure from the affected foot

, Rationale: Diabetic foot ulcers are commonly caused by
neuropathy and repetitive pressure. Offloading reduces
mechanical stress and promotes wound healing while
preventing further tissue destruction.


3.
During wound assessment, the nurse identifies yellow,
stringy tissue attached to the wound bed. How should this
tissue be documented?
A. Eschar
B. Granulation tissue
C. Slough
D. Epithelial tissue
Answer: C. Slough
Rationale: Slough appears yellow or tan and may be moist
or stringy. It represents nonviable tissue requiring
appropriate wound management and possible
debridement.


4.
A patient with venous leg ulcers asks why compression
therapy is necessary. Which explanation by the nurse is
most accurate?
