PRN 1032 Final Exam Study Guide - Questions
With Precise Solutions
Pressure ulcers Correct Answer - Often occurs due to
immobility and shearing can also play a role
Pressure ulcer risk factors Correct Answer - Moisture,
Malnutrition and Alter sensory perception
Interventions to prevent skin breakdown Correct Answer -
Skin kept dry and clean, Avoid friction and shear, Positioning of the
patient every 2 hours
Cellulitis Correct Answer - Is a skin disorder caused by
infection of the dermis and subcutaneous tissue, usually caused by
Staphylococcus.
Fungal infections Correct Answer - Candidiasis is known to
affect the mouth, esophagus and vagina, appearance is a yellow or
white patches in the mouth. It causes itching and white discharge
from vagina
Squamous cell carcinoma Correct Answer - Is caused by
sunlight, affects the epidermis, and can become invasive and
metastasize to other areas of the body. Tumor that begins as a small
nodule that rapidly becomes ulcerated.
Sheering Correct Answer - Rubbing/friction, skin moving one
way and the bone staying. Don't slide the patient, lift them instead
Burn injuries Correct Answer - injuries to the skin caused by
exposure to extreme heat, hot liquids, electrical agents, strong
chemicals, or radiation
, Burn diet Correct Answer - High calorie, high protein, and
vitamins C and Zinc to assist in healing
Acne types Correct Answer - Acne rosacea begins between age
30- 50 years; characterized by erythema(redness), papules,
pustules, and telangiectasias. Acne vulgaris begins early puberty;
factors that contribute to it are hereditary disposition, increased
androgen levels, and premenstrual hormonal fluctuations
Acne diet Correct Answer - Important to eat healthy-well
balanced diet. May be caused by fatty/greasy foods
Types of inmmunity Correct Answer - Active artificially
acquired immunity occurs via immunization. E.g: Flu vaccinations
Passive natural immunity occurs transmission of mother to baby.
E.g: Mother to baby, Utero, Breast milk
First line of defense Correct Answer - is intact skin against
harmful environmental agents. Skin functions as a protective barrier
for the underlying tissues, helping maintain integrity. Sebaceous
glands excrete sweat, lactic acid, and fatty acids to limit microbial
growth
Second line of defense Correct Answer - is fever (slows the
growth of pathogens), leukocytosis, phagocytosis, inflammation, and
the action of interferon (biologic response modifier that affects
cellular growth).
Third line of defense Correct Answer - the immune response of
(WBCs) against pathogenic organisms. Microorganisms and other
substances that do not belong in the body, such as pollen, are
