Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2

The nurse would perform preoperative teaching. The preoperative phase begins when surgery is planned, and ends when the client is transferred to the operating table. The intraoperative phase begins when the client is transferred to the operating table, and ends when the client is admitted to the recovery room. The postoperative phase begins with the admission of the client to the postanesthesia care unit, and ends when healing is complete. The perioperative period covers all three time periods, from planning surgery until healing is complete.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

Wound evisceration is separation of the wound with internal organs and tissues visible through the opening. Wound dehiscence is separation of the suture line without visible organs or tissues. Wound infection is inflammation, redness, and/or drainage from the wound. Wound tunneling is small channels within the wound.
