Answer to Question 1

C
C. Stethoscope over brachial artery to measure BP
A. Radial site for radial pulse
B. Ulnar site for ulnar pulse

Answer to Question 2

B
B. The type of dressing used depends on the wound characteristics. Gel-impregnated gauze is used for open, shallow wounds with moderate drainage.

C. Alginate wound pouch I used for a deep, open wound with heavy drainage.
D. A closed incision would be left open to air after the initial dressing is removed.
