Answer to Question 1

C
C. Stethoscope over brachial artery to measure BP
A. Radial site for radial pulse
B. Ulnar site for ulnar pulse
D. Temporal site for temporal pulse

Answer to Question 2

B
B. The type of dressing used depends on the wound characteristics. Gel-impregnated gauze is used for open, shallow wounds with moderate drainage.
A. Transparent film is ideal for small, superficial wounds. This type of dressing can be used to autolytically debride a necrotic wound. It is also useful as a dressing over an intravenous catheter site. The transparent film allows the nurse to assess the wound without removing the dressing.
C. Alginate wound pouch I used for a deep, open wound with heavy drainage.
D. A closed incision would be left open to air after the initial dressing is removed.
