Answer to Question 1

B
Tagaderm is used to autolytically debride devitalized tissue. A topical antimicrobial would be used to
treat local signs of infection. A hemostatic such as Surgicel would be used to stop bleeding, and
wet-to-dry dressings would be used to mechanically debride necrotic tissue.

Answer to Question 2

D
Kobala defined comfort as the immediate state of being strengthened by having the needs of relief,
ease, and transcendence met.
