Correct Answer
A. A covering that is placed directly over a wound to help absorb blood, prevent infection, and prevent further injuryExplanation
A wound dressing is a covering that is placed directly over a wound to help absorb blood, prevent infection, and prevent further injury. It serves as a protective barrier between the wound and the external environment, helping to keep it clean and promote healing. Additionally, wound dressings can also provide moisture to the wound, promote the formation of new tissue, and control the amount of fluid that is released from the wound. Therefore, it is an essential component of wound care to ensure proper healing and prevent complications.Rate this question:

Cover the wound in dirt
Correct Answer
A. Cover the wound in dirtExplanation
Covering the wound in dirt is not a way of caring for wounds because it can introduce bacteria and increase the risk of infection. Washing the wounds with soap and water helps to clean the wound and remove any dirt or debris. Flushing the wound with running water helps to further clean the wound and remove any foreign objects. Applying antibiotic ointment helps to prevent infection and promote healing. However, covering the wound in dirt can hinder the healing process and increase the risk of complications.Rate this question:
