Question 1

Which type of burn involves the epidermis and some layers of the dermis?&#10;A) First-degree burn&#10;B) Second-degree burn&#10;C) Third-degree burn&#10;D) Fourth-degree burn

Accepted Answer

In a second-degree burn,all epidermis and varying depths of the dermis are destroyed.It is characterized by blister formation,pain,and a moist,mottled appearance.

Question 2

Which type of surgical treatment is preferred for deep partial-thickness burns of the hands,arms,or legs?&#10;A) Excisional debridement&#10;B) Escharectomy&#10;C) Tangential excision&#10;D) Partial hyperbaric oxygen

Accepted Answer

The tangential excision procedure involves excising burned tissue until normal dermal tissue is reached below the depth of the wound.The wound is usually covered with a split-thickness autograft.

Question 3

Which type of graft comes from a genetically identical person?&#10;A) Autograft&#10;B) Allograft&#10;C) Xenograft&#10;D) Isograft

Accepted Answer

A tissue donation from a person with identical genetic makeup is an isograft.

Question 4

Which statement would not be included in the plan of care for a patient undergoing a procedure involving a tissue allograft?&#10;A) A dark antiseptic agent,such as Betadine,is used to prep the skin in the sterile field.&#10;B) Hypothermia is to be avoided.&#10;C) The patient is positioned on a gel mattress to prevent pressure sores.&#10;D) Donor and recipient sites are draped separately.

Accepted Answer

The skin is prepped with a colorless agent in order to assess the true skin color and to assess the vascularity of the donor tissue.

Question 5

Which is an augmentation mammoplasty approach in which a breast implant is inserted?&#10;A) Laparoscopic&#10;B) Periareolar&#10;C) Periosteal&#10;D Intrathoracic

Accepted Answer

A bilateral mammoplasty usually is performed for aesthetics on a woman who desires larger breasts.Inflatable implants are inserted under breast tissue or the underlying pectoralis muscles and then filled with sterile saline solution through self-sealing valves.The breast implant can be inserted through a periareolar,transaxillary,inframammary,or supraumbilical endoscopic approach.

Question 6

Which is a reason that replantation of amputated parts would be contraindicated?&#10;A) The ischemic part has been kept dry at a cooled temperature&#10;B) Intact subcutaneous venous circulation is present in the skin bridges&#10;C) The injury involves severe bruising or a crushing injury&#10;D) The patient has not received a tetanus shot

Accepted Answer

Contraindications to replantation include severe bruising or crushing injury,prolonged warm ischemia,multiple fractures or injury at different levels in the same digit,or associated injuries that preclude the effort.Restoration is much more difficult in crush injuries than in sharp,clean amputations.Replantation is more successful in young patients than in older patients.Also,incomplete amputations are more successful because they have intact subcutaneous venous circulation in the skin bridges.

Question 7

Which type of skin graft involves the epidermis,dermis,and sometimes subcutaneous fat deeper than 1 mm?&#10;A) Composite graft&#10;B) Split-thickness graft&#10;C) Full-thickness graft&#10;D) End graft

Accepted Answer

Full-thickness skin grafts include the epidermis,dermis,and occasionally subcutaneous fat.They inhibit wound contraction better than split-thickness grafts and are usually used on the face,neck,hands,elbows,axillae,knees,and feet.

Question 8

Which is a benefit of using omentum as a graft?&#10;A) Will resorb into tissue when grafted&#10;B) Does not usually require a split-thickness skin graft&#10;C) Has very few blood vessels for anastomosis&#10;D) Helps to localize and control infection

Accepted Answer

A free graft of omentum can be used to provide contour in a soft tissue defect in the face or neck,to resurface an area such as the scalp,to provide vascular support for bone and skin grafts around prosthetic materials,and to control wound infection,such as in the chest wall.Omentum will localize inflammation and wall off infection.It will not resorb when grafted.Omentum resected from the peritoneal cavity can be transplanted to an avascular area if sufficient blood vessels are available for microvascular anastomoses to the gastroepiploic artery and vein in the graft.Split-thickness skin grafts cover the omental graft.

Question 9

What might be included in typical preoperative instructions for a patient about to undergo an elective plastic surgical procedure?&#10;A) Avoid eating red meat for a week before surgery.&#10;B) Avoid aspirin and smoking for at least 2 weeks before surgery.&#10;C) No heavy lifting for 2 months before surgery.&#10;D) Ensure all tattoos are removed prior to surgery

Accepted Answer

Aspirin has an anticoagulant effect that can affect bleeding and cause a hematoma.Smoking causes vasoconstriction that can affect wound healing and cause tissue necrosis.

Question 10

Which of the following is not a source for replacement tissue?&#10;A) Polygraft&#10;B) Allograft&#10;C) Isograft&#10;D) Xenograft

Accepted Answer

Replacement tissues or other structural substances can come from autograft,isograft,allograft,xenograft,bioengineered graft,or synthetic graft sources.
