A nurse is caring for a client who has leukemia. The nurse understands that this condition is characterized by what type of neoplasia?

Choice B reason:

Transparent film dressing is a type of dressing that consists of a thin sheet of polyurethane with an adhesive coating. It allows oxygen and moisture vapor to pass through but prevents bacteria and water from entering the wound. It is suitable for wounds with minimal drainage, such as superficial abrasions or donor sites.

Choice C reason:

Calcium alginate dressing is a type of dressing that consists of fibers derived from seaweed that form a gel-like substance when they come in contact with wound exudate. It absorbs large amounts of drainage and supports autolytic debridement of necrotic tissue. It is suitable for wounds with heavy drainage, such as pressure ulcers or venous ulcers.

Choice D reason:

Hydrogel dressing is a type of dressing that consists of water or glycerin-based gel that provides moisture to dry wounds and supports autolytic debridement of necrotic tissue. It is suitable for wounds with minimal to moderate drainage, such as partial-thickness burns or radiation injuries.

Choice D reason:

Malignant neoplasia of bone marrow cells. Leukemia is a type of cancer that originates from the abnormal and uncontrolled growth of hematopoietic stem cells or progenitor cells in the bone marrow. These cells can proliferate and differentiate into various types of blood cells, such as lymphocytes, granulocytes, monocytes, or erythrocytes. Leukemia can be classified by the type of cell involved (myeloid or lymphoid) and the rate of progression (acute or chronic).

Choice A reason:

Benign neoplasia of blood cells is not a correct term for leukemia, as leukemia is a malignant condition that can invade and destroy normal blood cells and tissues. Benign neoplasia of blood cells is a rare condition that involves the overproduction of normal blood cells, such as polycythemia vera or essential thrombocythemia.

Choice B reason:

Malignant neoplasia of blood cells is not a correct term for leukemia, as leukemia does not originate from blood cells, but from bone marrow cells. Malignant neoplasia of blood cells is a term that can be used for lymphoma, which is a type of cancer that originates from lymphocytes in the lymphatic system.

Choice C reason:

Benign neoplasia of bone marrow cells is not a correct term for leukemia, as leukemia is a malignant condition that can spread to other organs or systems. Benign neoplasia of bone marrow cells is a term that can be used for myelodysplastic syndrome, which is a condition that involves the abnormal development and maturation of bone marrow cells.
