Question 1

wound is clean and edges are re approximated surgically

Answer 1

primary intention wound healing

Question 2

wound edges are not reapproximated surgically and the body must heal the wound by wound contraction and filling in the depth of the wound

Answer 2

secondary intention wound healing

Question 3

dirty wound is left open, cleansed and then closed surgically

Answer 3

delayed primary intention wound healing

Question 4

phase of healing:

lasts 3-7 days
provide hemostasis of the wound and breakdown to clean the wound

growth factors, cytokines chemokines

Answer 4

inflammatory phase

Question 5

phase of healing:

days 3-5 and continues 3 weeks

fills in wound defects with new tissue

3 processes in achieving goals?

15% tensile strength regained

Answer 5

proliferative phase

angiogenesis
collagen synthesis
wound contraction

Question 6

phase of healing:

3 weeks up to 2 yrs

scar tissue is rebuilt and tensile strength increases

type III collagen replaced with type I collagen

decreased vascularity

Answer 6

remodeling phase

Question 7

phase of healing:

may be considered a phase of healing involves the resurfacing of wood

keratinocytes

migrates across from wound edges

Answer 7

epithelialization

Question 8

non proliferating bacterial on the wound surface with no injury or visible immune response

Answer 8

contamination

Question 9

proliferating bacteria on the surface of the wound with no injury or visible immune response

Answer 9

colonization

Question 10

proliferating bacteria in stalled wounds causing localized infection but classic signs/symptoms of the inflammation may be absent

Answer 10

critical colonization

Question 11

proliferating bacteria within viable tissues that cause injury and immune response occur?

Answer 11

infection

Question 12

matrix of polysaccharides, proteins and DNA synthesized by multiple bacterial species

bacteria and fungi

Answer 12

biofilm

Question 13

this type of cast is different than normal cast?

less padding and specifically covers anterior tibial crest, malleoli, achilles area and digits

patient can walk on it with a cast shoe/boot

Answer 13

total contact cast

Question 14

involve the epidermis and the uppermost layers of the dermis?

Answer 14

partial thickness wound

Question 15

extends through the epidermis, dermis, into the subq layer and deeper structures

Answer 15

full thickness wound
