Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

Numbing the area treated is not a physiological effect of moist heat. Moist heat primarily works by increasing blood flow to the treated area.

Choice B rationale:

Dilating the blood vessels is the correct answer. Moist heat therapy works by increasing the temperature of the skin/soft tissue, which leads to vasodilation and increased blood flow to the treated area.

Choice C rationale:

Drawing fluid to the site of application is not a physiological effect of moist heat. Moist heat primarily works by increasing blood flow to the treated area.

Choice D rationale:

Constricting the blood vessels is not a physiological effect of moist heat. Moist heat primarily works by increasing blood flow to the treated area through vasodilation.

A. Stage 1. B. Stage 3. C. Stage 2. D. Stage 4.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

Stage 1 pressure ulcers are characterized by intact skin with non-blanchable redness of a localized area usually over a bony prominence.

Choice B rationale:

Stage 3 pressure ulcers involve full thickness tissue loss. Subcutaneous fat may be visible but bone, tendon, or muscle are not exposed.

Choice C rationale:

Stage 2 pressure ulcers involve partial thickness loss of dermis presenting as a shallow open ulcer with a red pink wound bed, without slough.

Choice D rationale:

Stage 4 pressure ulcers involve full thickness tissue loss with exposed bone, tendon, or muscle. Slough or eschar may be present on some parts of the wound bed.
