Interventions for skin infection

avoidance of the offending organism, good hygiene, vaccination and example is zostavax

How is infection diagnosed

based on clinical indicators or systemic signs

Some nursing diagnoses for skin problems

compromised tissue integrity due to vascular insufficiency and trauma Potential for one deterioration due to insufficient with management

location, size, color, extent of tissue involvement and surrounding tissue, cell types in wound base and margins, exudate, foreign bodies

What factors might contribute to a high-risk skin issue patient

mental status changes, impaired motility, nutrition status, incontinence

Is there a cure for herpes Symplex virus

no after the first infection the virus remains in a dormant state in the nerve ganglia

Is the skin intact in a stage to pressure injury

no this is a partial thickness loss of epidermis or dermis

These types of loans are superficial with minimal loss of tissue integrity from the epidermis and upper dermal layers

partial thickness wounds

Implement aggressive intervention of prevention with...

pressure relief or reduction devices also pressure mapping

What is herpes zoster (shingles) caused by

reactivation of the vericella zoster virus also known as chickenpox

Cutaneous anthrax is an infection caused by

spores of bacillus anthracis

What number on the Braden scale is cause for worry

Less than 12

Where do dermatophytes live

Mainly in theSoil and on humans and animals

Warm

How do we prevent infection and wound deterioration

We monitor the ulcers appearance or progress and we maintain a safe environment to prevent infection

If somebody has folliculitis what is the best action
