Answer to Question 1

4
A keloid is an enlarged scar that extends beyond the wound edges. An erosion is caused by a loss of epidermis. A fissure is a linear crack in the epidermis. An excoriation is the loss of epidermal layers of skin, exposing the dermis.

Answer to Question 2

3
Significant changes in the intake of foods high in vitamin K can interfere with the anticoagulation properties of warfarin. These foods include bananas; celery; broccoli; green, leafy vegetables; spinach; and liver. The client who is prescribed warfarin does not need to avoid foods that are high in protein or sugar. The client does not need to avoid foods that are low in protein.
