lesion?

a) Psoriasis
b) Facial acne
c) Facial lesions associated with herpes simplex
d) Keloid formation at the site of an old incision - Keloid formation at the site of an old
incision

A secondary lesion emerges from an existing primary lesion, such as the keloids that
can emerge from the site of a healed wound. Acne and the lesions associated with
psoriasis and herpes do not meet this criterion.

An adult client is having his skin assessed. The client tells the nurse he has been a
heavy smoker for the last 40 years. The client has clubbing of the fingernails. What
does this finding tell the nurse?

a) The client has COPD
b) The client has melanoma
c) The client has chronic hypoxia
d) The client has asthma - The client has chronic hypoxia

Explanation:
Clubbing of the nails indicates chronic hypoxia. Clubbing is identified when the angle of
the nail to the finger is more than 160 degrees. Melanoma does not present with the
symptom of clubbing. The scenario described does not give enough information to
indicate that the client has COPD or asthma.

The nurse assesses an older adult bedridden client in her home. While assessing the
client's buttocks, the nurse observes that a small area of the skin is broken and
resembles an erosion. The nurse should document the client's pressure ulcer as

a) stage IV.
b) stage I.
c) stage III.
d) stage II. - stage II.

Explanation:
Stage II pressure ulcer is a partial thickness loss of dermis presenting as a shallow
open ulcer with a red-pink wound bed, without slough. May also present as an intact or
open/ruptured, serum-filled blister. Presents as a shiny or dry shallow ulcer without
slough or bruising; bruising indicates suspected deep tissue injury. This stage should
not be used to describe skin tears, tape burns, perineal dermatitis, maceration, or
excoriation.

A nurse is teaching a group of 5th grade children about characteristics of the skin.
Which of the following should she mention? Select all that apply.

a) Helps make vitamin D in the body
b) Involved in digestion of food
c) Largest organ of the body
d) Protects against damage to the body from sunlight
e) Circulates blood throughout the body
f) Aids in maintaining body temperature - • Largest organ of the body
• Protects against damage to the body from sunlight
• Aids in maintaining body temperature

Explanation:
The skin is the largest organ of the body. The skin is a physical barrier that protects the
underlying tissues and organs from microorganisms, physical trauma, ultraviolet
radiation, and dehydration. It plays a vital role in temperature maintenance, fluid and
electrolyte balance, absorption, excretion, sensation, immunity, and vitamin D synthesis.
The heart, not the skin, circulates blood throughout the body. The digestive system, not
the skin, is involved in digestion of food

, c) Overhydration

are found chiefly in the axillary and genital regions, usually open into hair follicles, and
are stimulated by emotional stress.

associated with it, almost like powder, and is found in dark and most areas
