NURSING ANM AND GNM

Detailed explanation-1: -Wounds can be open, with broken skin and exposed body tissue, or closed when there is damage to tissue under intact skin. Closed wounds are often caused by blunt trauma, and though the injured tissue is not exposed, there can be bleeding and damage to underlying muscle, internal organs and bones.

Detailed explanation-2: -In a closed wound, tissue damage and bleeding occur under the surface of the skin. Examples of closed wounds include bruises. An open wound involves a break in the skin that leaves the internal tissue exposed. Open wounds may result from falls, blunt trauma, and surgery.

Detailed explanation-3: -A wound can be open or closed. An open wound, in which the skin has been torn, cut, or punctured, can happen from things such as falls, bites, or burns. A surgical incision (cut) is also a type of an open wound. A closed wound is when the injured area is under the skin and not exposed to the air.

Detailed explanation-4: -Class 2 wounds are considered to be clean-contaminated. These wounds lack unusual contamination. Class 2 wounds enter the respiratory, alimentary, genital, or urinary tracts. However, these wounds have entered these tracts under controlled conditions.

Detailed explanation-5: -Most common are gauze sponges and rolls of gauze. You can use gauze sponges and gauze rolls depending on the type, size, or location of the wound that needs to be dressed. Gauze sponges absorb excess fluid that injuries can produce from damage.
