Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

C
Select a dressing that has increased moisture-absorbing capacity. Dressings that increase moisture absorption will result in dryer skin that is less macerated. A wound culture is not indicated for macerated skin unless an increase in drainage or development of necrotic tissue occurs. Pressure-reducing devices are not indicated for macerated skin. Macerated skin is a local reaction; the patient would not need systemic monitoring unless the pressure ulcer extended beyond the original margins.
