Correct Answers
A–1
(D) Ecchymosis describes a discoloration of the skin, usually black and blue in color. Ecchymosis is another word for a bruise. This is caused by blood dispersing into the skin after rupture of small blood vessels. A fractured ankle would have to be diagnosed most likely by x-ray, not nursing assessment. Blanched skin refers to skin that is pale. Edema is accumulation of fluid in the tissue or swelling.
A–2
(B) The correct and best time for application of anti-embolism stockings is in the morning, before the client gets out of bed or after the legs have been elevated for an amount of time. The client's lower extremities should be in a non-dependent position during application to prevent trapping venous blood. Antiembolism stockings are usually worn continuously and should only be removed for the nurse to assess the skin.
