Skin Integrity Bundle: Wounds, Pressure Injury Staging, Braden Scale
Master tissue integrity, wound care mechanics, and pressure ulcer protocols with this high-yield visual study guide bundle! Built by a final-year BSN student, this 6-page scannable resource targets critical safety assessments and staging criteria heavily tested on exams and the NCLEX. What’s Included: Skin Functions & Lifespan Variations: Visual reference mapping baseline skin superpowers alongside specific breakdown risks across age groups (neonates to older adults) and high-risk conditions (obesity, cancer, chronic illnesses). The C.T.T.I.T. Assessment Framework: Clever mnemonic mapping Color (cyanosis, jaundice, pallor bounds), Temperature, Texture, Integrity, and Turgor dehydration markers. 10 Mechanical Wound Classifications: Definitions for Abrasions, Abscesses, Contusions, Crushing injuries, Excoriations, Incisions, Lacerations, Penetrating wounds, Punctures, and Tunnels. Pressure Injury Staging Levels: Step-by-step visual tracking for Stages 1–4, Unstageable wounds (covered in slough/eschar), and Deep Tissue Injuries (DTI) over bony prominences, featuring actionable memory tricks. The Braden Scale Risk Matrix: Full structural breakdown of the 6 core components (Sensory Perception, Moisture, Activity, Mobility, Nutrition, Friction/Shear) alongside exact score risk ranges. Preventative Interventions & Wound Irrigation: Evidence-based directives for Q2H turning schedules, friction reduction, nutritional protein matching, and clean target-pattern saline dressing changes. The ultimate visual reference tool to simplify wound staging, recognize skin risk levels instantly, and ace your fundamentals exams!
