A patient has a pooling of blood under unbroken skin of the hip after a fall.
The nurse should document that this patient has a(n):

Choice A rationale:

A stage 1 pressure injury is characterized by intact skin with non-blanchable redness of a localized area.

Choice B rationale:

Unstageable pressure injuries are those where the base of the wound is covered by slough (yellow, tan, gray, green, or brown) and/or eschar (tan, brown, or black) in the wound bed.

Choice C rationale:

Deep tissue injuries are characterized by a purple or maroon localized area of discolored intact skin or blood-filled blister due to damage of underlying soft tissue from pressure and/or shear.

Choice D rationale:

A stage 2 pressure injury involves partial-thickness loss of dermis presenting as a shallow open ulcer with a red-pink wound bed, without slough.

Choice A rationale:

Tertiary intention, also known as delayed primary closure or secondary suture, is a type of wound healing where the wound is initially left open and closed after several days.

Choice B rationale:

The remodeling phase is not a type of wound healing, but a stage of wound healing where the wound fully closes and the new tissue slowly gains strength and flexibility.

Choice C rationale:

Primary intention is a type of wound healing where the wound edges are approximated (brought together) and the wound heals by the process of epithelialization.

Choice D rationale:

Secondary intention is a type of wound healing where the wound is left open and heals by granulation, contraction, and epithelialization.
