A 34-Year-Old Patient with Diabetes Mellitus Had an Abdominal Cholecystectomy

A 34-year-old patient with diabetes mellitus had an abdominal cholecystectomy two years ago and has had intermittent abdominal pain and gastrointestinal distress since that time.An exploratory laparotomy was performed,and multiple adhesions were released.Why should the nurse expect that this patient's wound healing may be delayed?

A) Because of damage to her intestinal organs caused by the adhesions
B) Because of her prior history of adhesion development with a surgical procedure
C) Because of her diabetes,which decreases collagen synthesis and early capillary growth
D) Because of the lack of a gallbladder,which provides necessary mediators for healing
