Question 1 of 5
The nurse is discussing the risk of delayed wound healing following surgery with another healthcare team member. It would be correct for the nurse to identify which condition is a potential cause of this complication?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Cushing’s syndrome involves elevated cortisol levels, which impair wound healing by suppressing immune responses and collagen synthesis. Diabetes insipidus primarily affects fluid balance, hemophilia affects clotting but not healing directly, and inflammatory bowel disease is less directly related to wound healing compared to Cushing’s syndrome.
