Which cells located in the dermis produce collagen (dermal building blocks) and elastin (tensile
strength)?
Select one:
a. Leukotrienes.
b. Mast cells.
c. Macrophages.
d. Fibroblasts. d. Fibroblasts.
Fibroblasts' main function is to make connective tissue and the extracellular matrix, specifically
the production of collagen (dermal building blocks) and elastin (tensile strength) and fibronectin,
which binds extracellular matrix proteins.
A patient has an acute full-thickness wound due to trauma. What order of healing would occur

c. Hemostatis, resurfacing, scar formation, remodeling.
d. Hemostatis, inflammation, proliferation or regeneration, maturation or remodeling phases.
d. Hemostatis, inflammation, proliferation or regeneration, maturation or remodeling
phases.
The deeper the tissue layers affected, the greater number of wound healing mechanisms required.
Full thickness wounds will experience all four phases of wound healing: hemostasis,
inflammation, proliferation where granulation tissue is formed, re-epithelialization, and finally
the maturational or remodeling phase.

The level and type of tissue death influence the clinical appearance of necrotic tissue. Color
varies as necrosis worsens, from white/gray nonviable tissue to yellow slough, and finally to firm
leathery hard black eschar.
You have a patient in acute care who has multiple risk factors for skin breakdown. Which of the
following statements are true regarding frequency of skin assessments?
Select one:
a. A head to toe skin assessments should be done only upon initial admission.
b. Patients at risk for skin break down should have at least a daily skin inspection.
c. Skin inspection should be performed twice an eight-hour shift for those at risk.
d. Skin inspections should only be done daily if the patient has a wound. b. Patients at risk
for skin break down should have at least a daily skin inspection.
At least a daily skin inspection is recommended for patients at risk for skin integrity issues.
Frequency of reassessment is dependent upon many variables i.e. care setting, co-morbidities,
