Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, D
Factors that delay wound healing are a dry wound environment (allows epithelial cells to dry), deficient vitamin C (inhibits formation of collagen fibers), and deficient vitamin D (regulates growth and differentiation of cell types). Decreased, not increased, circulation delays healing. An increase in the white blood cell count may occur but does not delay healing.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The first meconium stool should occur within the first 24 hours. It may be delayed up to 7 days in very lowbirth-weight newborns
