the emergent phase, the nurse would expect to find:
- Leathery, dry hard skin
- Red, fluid filled vesicles
- Massive edema at the injury site
- Red skin without blisters - Correct Answers ✅Leathery,
dry hard skin The initial cause of hypovolemia during the emergent phase
of burn injury is:
- Increased capillary permeability
- Loss of sodium to interstitial spaces
- Decreased vascular oncotic pressure
- Fluid loss from denuded skin surfaces - Correct Answers
✅Increased capillary permeability A patient has deep partial-thickness and full-thickness burns to the right anterior chest and entire right arm. It is most
important that the nurse assess for:
- Presence of pain
- Swelling of the arm
- Formation of eschar 1 / 3

- Presence of pulses in the arm - Correct Answers
✅Presence of pulses in the arm To properly position a patient with burns to the ear, face and
neck area, the nurse know to position the patient:
- Prone
- On the side
- Without pillows
- With extra passing around the head - Correct Answers
✅Without pillows During the early acute phase of burn injury, the patient has a serum sodium of 125 mEq/L and a potassium of 2.8 mEq/L.The nurse recognizes that these imbalances occur as a result
of:
- Prolonged hydrotherapy
- Treatment with topical silver nitrate
- Fluid shifts
- Increased metabolis - Correct Answers ✅Fluid shifts
During the rehabilitation phase of wound healing, the contour
of scarring can be controlled with:
- Pressure garments
- Avoidance of sunlight 2 / 3
