Study Notes

Wound Care and Healing Summary

Pressure ulcers can lead to colonization and infection of the wound and are staged from shallow skin craters to life-threatening tissue ulceration.
Treatment may involve antibiotics, special beds, debridement, and relieving pressure to protect the wound from further trauma or contamination.
Wound dehiscence and evisceration are nursing actions for wound separation and protrusion of abdominal organs, respectively.
Understanding wound care dressings, sharp debridement, and prevention methods such as repositioning and maximizing nutrition is crucial.
Factors affecting wound healing include decreased mobility, pressure, altered consciousness, and poor nutrition.
Different types of drainage are identified by colors such as sanguinous, serosanguinous, purulent, and serous.
Various types of wounds, including incision, laceration, abrasion, avulsion, ulceration, puncture, and contusion, require different treatment approaches.
Abdominal binders are used after common abdominal surgery to protect incisions and sutures and reduce pain.
Hydrotherapy creates a moist environment to accelerate healing and aid in debridement.
Special considerations for wound healing in older adults include diminished collagen and blood supply, decreased elastin quality, and long-term exposure to ultraviolet rays.
Definitions of first-intention, second-intention, and third-intention healing provide insight into wound closure methods and healing processes.
Bed cradles are used to keep skin dry and prevent complications in clients lying in bed for extended periods, such as those with pressure injuries.
