TNCC 20TH EDITION EXAM LATEST 2024-2025 Surface and Burn Trauma
COMPLETE 100 QUESTIONS AND CORRECT DETAILED ANSWERS|ALREADY GRADED A+
Abrasion - ANSpartial or full-thickness wound that denudes the skin
age indication for transfer to burn center - ANSchild
Avulsion - ANSfull-thickness wounds caused by a tearing or ripping of skin and soft-tissue; wound
edges not well approximated
body parts that indicate transfer to burn center - ANSface, hands, feet, genitalia, perimeum,
major joints
cause of cardiac dysrhythmias in burn victims - ANScell damage increases circulating K+ which
can cause T wave changes
complications associated with electrical burns - ANScardiac
dysrhythmias rhabdomyolysis with myoglobinuria
fractures
seizures
contusion - ANSclosed wound in which a ruptured blood vessel or capillary bed hemorrhages into
surrounding tissue
criteria for transfer to burn center for partial thickness burns - ANS10% of TBSA
fifth intervention for frostbite - ANSASA or NSAIDS to prevent thrombus formation
first intervention for frostbite - ANSquickly rewarm at 40 - 42 C (104 - 107.6 F), confirming that
affected area can be thawed and not refreeze; avoid friction/rubbing
fluid resuscitation for electrical burns - ANSmay require increased fluid requirements (also for
pediatrics, inhalation burns, and intoxicated)
fluid resuscitation for thermal burns >20% TBSA - ANSLR @ 2 mL/kg/percentage of TBSA; first
half within 8 hours of the burn injury; remainder over the next 16 hours
fourth intervention for frostbite - ANSprotect from further injury -- splint extremities
hematoma - ANScontusion in which blood leaks under the skin surface and often forms a
palpable mass
importance of temperature regulation with burns - ANSprotective skin barrier is lost leading to
difficulty maintaining temp
laceration - ANSopen wound from shearing forces through the dermis and epidermis with
potential involvement of underlying structures such as muscles, tendons, ligaments
other indications for transfer to burn center - ANS3rd degree burns
electrical/lightning
chemical
inhalation
concomitant trauma
preexisting complicating disorders
