Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client's wound dressing, and observes a watery red drainage. The nurse should document this drainage as which of the following?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Serosanguineous. This choice is the most accurate because it describes the presence of both serum (clear, watery part of blood) and blood. The watery red drainage in the wound indicates a combination of serous fluid and blood, which is characteristic of serosanguineous drainage. Sanguineous (choice
A) refers to fresh blood, serous (choice
B) is clear and watery drainage, and purulent (choice
D) indicates the presence of pus, none of which accurately describe the observed drainage.
Therefore, the nurse should document the drainage as serosanguineous to reflect the specific characteristics observed in the wound.
