Question 1 of 5
A nursing instructor is reviewing the wound healing process with a group of nursing students. They should be able to identify which of the following alterations as a wound or injury that heals by secondary intention? Select all.
Correct Answer: A, E
Rationale: The correct answers are A and E because wounds healing by secondary intention involve tissue loss and heal from the bottom up with granulation tissue filling in the wound. A Stage III pressure ulcer and an open burn area are examples of wounds that heal by secondary intention due to tissue loss.
Choices B and D are incorrect because sutured surgical incisions and lacerations sealed with adhesive heal by primary intention, where wound edges are approximated and heal with minimal scarring.
Choice C, a casted bone fracture, is incorrect as fractures heal through a different process involving the formation of callus and subsequent bone remodeling, not by secondary intention healing.
