Answer to Question 1

C
If drainage accumulates in the wound bed, wound healing is delayed. Drainage is removed by using a closed or an open drain system, even if the amount of drainage is small. A JP drain collects fluid that is in the 100 to 200 mL per 24-hour range; the Hemovac drain accommodates more drainage, usually up to 500 mL in 24 hours.

Answer to Question 2

A, B
Four types of CVADs are available: nontunneled percutaneous central venous catheters, tunneled central venous catheters, PICCs, and implanted subcutaneous ports.
