A wound - correct answer ✔Is a result of injury to the skin


A pressure ulcer is caused by - correct answer ✔Unrelieved pressure that
results in ischemia and damage to the underlying tissue


Suspected deep tissue injury - correct answer ✔Discolored but intact skin
caused by damage to
underlying tissue


Stage I Pressure Ulcer - correct answer ✔Intact skin with an area of
persistent, nonblanchable redness, typically over
a bony prominence, which may feel warm or cool to touch. The tissue is
swollen and
congested, with possible discomfort at the site. With darker skin tones, the
ulcer may
appear blue or purple.


Stage II Pressure Ulcer - correct answer ✔Partial-thickness skin loss
involving the epidermis and the dermis. The ulcer
is visible and superficial and may appear as an abrasion, blister, or shallow
cavity.
Edema persists, and the ulcer may become infected, possibly with pain and
scant
drainage.

,Stage III Pressure Ulcer - correct answer ✔Full-thickness tissue loss with
damage to or necrosis of subcutaneous tissue.
The ulcer may reach, but not extend thorough the fascia below. The ulcer
appears as
a deep crater with or without undermining of adjacent tissue and without
exposed
muscle or bone. Drainage and infection are common


Stage IV Pressure Ulcer - correct answer ✔Full-thickness tissue loss with
destruction, tissue necrosis, or damage to
muscle, bone, or supporting structures. There may be sinus tracts, deep
pockets of
infection, tunneling, undermining, eschar (black scab-like material), or slough
(tan,
yellow, or green scab-like material).


Unstageable Pressure Ulcer - correct answer ✔Ulcers whose stages cannot
be determined because eschar or slough
obscures the wound.

✔The proliferative stage
