Answer:

Document the color, odor, amount, and type of wound drainage.

Explanation:

The nurse should document everything that occurs with the patient's wound, even if there is no change in the wound. This documentation allows a follow-up of the patient's healing process. If the patient's wound is not healing well, it is possible to seek another treatment, based on the information contained in the nursing team's documentation.

For this reason, after changing the dressing and making the patient comfortable, the nurse should document the color, odor, amount, and type of wound drainage.

In this case, the dressing is changes and the client is returned to a comfortable position. During the dressing, the nurse must have observed the characteristics of the wound. So, once the patient is returned to a comfortable position, the nurse can write the characteristics of the wound in the documents.

Hence, after the dressing is complete, the nurse should note down the details of the wound, which must include its color, presence or absence of odor, and the type wound drainage (if any).

Choose the structures that most directly provide nutrients and remove wastes from osteocytes in compact bone.
Ber [7]
I had to look for the missing options of this question and here is my answer:

Osteocyte is the term that describes the cells of the bone. These cells are formed in the mesenchyme. Once the bone matures, the processes then take place inside the Lacunae and the Canaliculi, respectively. Therefore, we can say that the structure that allows the provision of nutrients and removal of wastes from osteocytes would be the canaliculi.

Which event does not take place during interphase?
Dafna1 [17]
The correct answer is "crossing over."

Cellular growth takes place under interphase, specifically under G1 phase of interphase wherein there is increase in cell proteins and structure. Duplication of chromosomes (or DNA synthesis) takes place under interphase, specifically under the S phase of interphase. In the S phase, there is also duplication of organelles. Crossing over takes place under prophase I of meiosis.
