Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a group of newly licensed nurses about the Braden scale. Which of the following responses by a newly licensed nurse indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because the Braden scale measures six elements: sensory perception, moisture, activity, mobility, nutrition, and friction/shear. Understanding this key point is crucial in accurately assessing a patient's risk for pressure injuries.
Choice A is incorrect because the elements in the Braden scale have different point values, not all ranging from one to five.
Choice B is incorrect as age is not a factor in the Braden scale assessment.
Choice C is incorrect because a higher score on the Braden scale actually indicates a lower risk of pressure injuries, not a higher risk.
