Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. This description is more indicative of a stage 1 pressure ulcer, where the skin is intact but shows non- blanchable redness. Stage 1 ulcers do not involve skin loss.
B. This description might indicate a stage 2 pressure ulcer, where there is partial-thickness skin loss involving the epidermis and/or dermis. Stage 2 ulcers are characterized by shallow open ulcers with a red- pink wound bed, without slough.
C. This description accurately defines a stage 3 pressure ulcer. Stage 3 ulcers involve full-thickness skin loss where adipose (fat) tissue may be visible, but deeper structures such as muscle, tendon, and bone are not exposed.
D. Slough refers to yellow, tan, gray, green, or brown necrotic tissue in the wound bed that must be removed to facilitate wound healing. Slough can be present in both stage 3 and stage 4 pressure ulcers, where stage 4 involves full-thickness skin loss with exposure of muscle, bone, or supporting structures.
