Answer to Question 1

B
Tagaderm is used to autolytically debride devitalized tissue. A topical antimicrobial would be used to
treat local signs of infection. A hemostatic such as Surgicel would be used to stop bleeding, and
wet-to-dry dressings would be used to mechanically debride necrotic tissue.

Answer to Question 2

D
Kobala defined comfort as the immediate state of being strengthened by having the needs of relief,
ease, and transcendence met.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
