Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Second-intention healing occurs with tissue loss, such as lacerations, burns, and pressure ulcers. First-intention healing occurs in wounds with minimal tissue loss, such as surgical incisions or wounds sutured soon after injury. Third-intention healing occurs when there is a delay in the time between the injury and wound closure. It occurs after surgery when there is an infection or in a large open wound when the wound is closed later. There is no fourth-intention healing.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Referred pain to the shoulder may occur after abdominal distention with carbon dioxide, which is used for better visualization of the tubes. Mild postoperative cramping may result from manipulation of the ovaries. The client can expect to leave the healthcare facility as soon as she has recovered from the anesthesia. Someone should be available to drive her home after surgery. She may experience a slight vaginal discharge or spotting for a few days after the procedure.
