CSFA Exam review
24 hrs following initial closure - ANSIn general, an incision should NOT be allowed to get wet
until
Endogenous - ANS______contamination causes a greater number of infections in all types of
wounds except those classified as clean
5 days - ANSMost wound infections do not become evident clinically for ____ days or longer
after operation
Spores - ANS_________ are the resting, protective stage of some rod-shaped bacilli
Naloxone (Narcan) - ANS__________ reverses the effects of opiate agonists and is used
clinically to reverse respiratory depression and excessive sedation that results from opiate
overdosage
Streptococcus pyogenes - ANSthis paricular opportunistic pathogen is responsible for about
90% of all cases of pharyngitis---strep throat
Monofilament - ANS_______ sutures are preferable in contaminated wounds
Pseudomonas - ANS_______ is often encountered in hospital and clinical work because it is a
major cause of nosocomal infections and is often found in burn victims
Staphylococcus aureus - ANSWhat is the most common bacteria found in postopeative wound
infections
24 - ANSInfections due to streptococci or clostridia may become severe within ______ hours

Nociception - ANS__________ is the transmission of the pain stimulus from the periphery to the
brain.
urinary tract infection (UTI) - ANSWhat is the most common nonsocomial infection
Clostridium botulinum - ANS_______ produces one of the most potent toxins in existence and
the cause of the deadly food poisoning
vasoconstrictor - ANSEpinephrine 1:200,000 retards the systemic absorption and prolongs the
duration of infiltration anesthesia. Epinephrine is referred to as a

agent in such ailments as pneumonia, meningitis, boils, arthritis, and osteomyelitis (chronic
bone infection)
Halothane - ANSWhich of the following is commonly used for inhalation induction
Midazolam (Versed) - ANSWhich of the following has superior amnestic properties and is an
ideal agent for intavenous titration in the operating room holding area prior to thr patient's
entering the operating room.
Glutaraldehyde - ANSWhich of the following is an example of a high-level disinfecting agent?

wound classification in this scenario.
Penrose drain - ANSThis drainage system is associated with increased infection rate in clean
wounds
Clean-contaminated - ANSIn wound classification, if the gastrointestinal or respiratory tract is
entered without significant spillage or there is only a minor break in technique the wound would
be classified as
Dehiscence - ANSis a total or partial separation of the wound layers at any level
Benzodiazepines - ANS_______ produce anxiolysis, sedation, and amnesia.
Clean Contaminated, Dirty - ANSDuring a repair of the vaginal wall, which is a classification,
purulent drainage is encountered, the classification of the wound changes to
Keloids - ANSis a Hypertrophic abnormal raised, thickened scar that extends beyond the normal
borders/margins of the normal scar due to excessive dense fibrous collagen formation.
side to side - ANSDuring first First intention healing the wound heals across the incision line.
