Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

A
Assess healing ridge and skin integrity of the suture line for uniform closure of wound edges, normal color, and absence of drainage and inflammation that indicates adequate wound healing for support of internal structures without continued need for sutures or staples. If wound edges are separated or signs of infection are present, the wound has not healed properly. Notify the health care provider because sutures or staples may need to remain in place. Absence of drainage and erythema would indicate that sutures are ready for removal. Steps could be taken to relieve the patient's anxiety, but suture removal is based on the condition of the wound. Timing of suture removal is based on adequate wound healing.
