subcutaneous layer - CORRECT ANSWERS Lies just beneath the skin; contains blood
vessels, nerves, lymph, and loose connective tissue filled with fat cells
Determine conditions that place clients at risk for impaired skin integrity. - CORRECT
ANSWERS Immobilization-when unable to move freely dependent body parts are exposed
to pressure=decreased circulation
Reduced Sensation-pts w/ paralysis= circulatory insuff, nerve damage
Nutrition and Hydration Alterations-less protein and colories devolope thinner, less elastic skin
with less subcutaneous fat=imparied or delayed wound healing
Secretions & excretions on the skin-moisture on skin serve as a resevoir for bacteria=irritation,
softened cells=skin breakdown= infection
Vascular insufficiency-decreased circulation to the extremities=ischemia and breakdown; also
risk for infection because delivery of nutrients, o2, & WBCs to injured tissue is inadequate
