FUNDAMENTALS - Infection Control and wounds
Across
- 2. Ulcer is an injury and underlying diabetic neuropathy. Peripheral arterial disease, diabetic foot structure.
- 6. Hydrated Necrotic Tissue
- 8. Swollen, red, increased drainage, odor, and increased pain are signs of ______
- 9. Reservoirs that have the infectious agent but do not have signs and symptoms
- 11. Bacteria that occurs on hands with ADLs, relatively few in number on clean and exposed areas of the skin. Attached loosely on the skin in grease, fats, dirt's, found in greatest number under fingernails, can be pathogenic or nonpathogenic
- 12. Foreign object entering the skin or mucous membrane and lodging in underlying tissue. Fragments possibly scattering throughout tissues
- 13. Ulcer is an injury and underlying ischemia, resulting from underlying conditions, such as atherosclerosis or thrombosis
- 14. Respiratory, GI, GU, breaks in the skin, and blood and tissue
- 18. Tearing a structure from normal anatomic position. Possible damage to blood vessels, nerves, and other structures
- 20. Transmission that requires close proximity such as touching, kissing
- 23. Transmission that requires personal contact with a vector or inanimate object
- 26. Bacteria needs oxygen to live
- 29. Where growth and multiplication occur, such as people, animal, soil, food, water, milk
- 30. blunt or sharp instrument puncturing the skin. Intentional (such as venipuncture) or accidental
- 31. Asepsis includes procedures that reduce the number of organisms and prevent their transfer
- 33. Bacteria that normally found in skin creases, usually stable in number and type, cling tenaciously to skin by adhesion and absorption, less susceptible to antiseptics. Harder to remove
Down
- 1. Phase of wound healing that occurs about 24 hours after injury, WBC move to wound, lasts about 3 days. Clean up debris, and release growth factors
- 3. Black Necrotic Tissue
- 4. Phase of wound healing that occurs about 3 weeks after injury, possibly lasts months, or years. Collagen is remodeled. Scar.
- 5. Equipment or countertops
- 6. Wound healing where edges are not well approximated. They are large, open wounds from burns and/or trauma. They take longer to heal, and form more scare tissue
- 7. Destruction of the underlying tissue, surrounds some or all of the wound margins. May extend in one or many directions underneath the wound edges.
- 10. Isolation Precautions that include placing in private room with monitored negative air pressure. Wear respirator when entering room, transport patient out of room only when necessary and place surgical mask on patient, consult with CDC
- 15. A narrow opening or passageway that can extend in any direction through soft tissue and results in dead space with potential of abscess formation.
- 16. Isolation Precautions that include placing in private room, wear PPE, change gloves after contact, remove PPE before leaving room, wash hands, limit movement of patient out of the room, avoid sharing patient-care equipment
- 17. Wound healing where edges are well approximated such as a surgical wound, they have minimal tissue loss
- 19. Asepsis includes maintain an area that is free from pathogenic organism to isolate an operative area from the unsterile environment, and maintain sterile field for invasive procedures
- 21. Phase of wound healing begins 2-3 days after injury, lasts about 2-3 weeks. New tissue is built to fill wound. Granulation tissue forms
- 22. Phase of wound health that occurs immediately after initial injury. Involves blood vessels constricting and clotting begins.
- 24. Wound healing where edges are left open. Delayed primary closure. The wound is left open for several days to allow edema or infection to resolve, or fluid to drain, then they are closed.
- 25. Living creature that transmits infectious agent
- 27. Ulcer is an injury and poor venous return. Results from underlying conditions, such as incompetent valves or obstruction
- 28. Isolation Precautions that include using a private room, door may stay open, wear PPE, keep visitors 3 feet from infected person
- 32. Bacteria does not need oxygen to live
