VASCULAR ULCER MANAGEMENT

4.After assessing a patient who is malnourished and has a punched-out ulcer on the lower lateral leg, you decide to perform an ankle-brachial pressure test, which shows a value of 0.4. What does this result suggest?

A.Normal lower limb vasculature.

B.Imminent ischemic gangrene is likely.

C.Critical stenosis is present that warrants further intervention.

D.Vessels are significantly calcified.

E.Predominantly venous disease.

TISSUE RECONSTRUCTION AND WOUND CLOSURE

5.What was the main limitation of the original reconstructive ladder concept?

A.It did not include free tissue transfer.

B.The concept could only be practiced by plastic surgeons.

C.It did not include dermal matrices or negative pressure therapy.

D.The reconstructive process was performed in a stepwise manner.

E.Primary closure was the first rung on the ladder.

NEGATIVE PRESSURE WOUND THERAPY

6.You are planning to temporize an abdominal wound with a negative pressure dressing after debridement. Which one of the following is correct regarding negative pressure wound therapy?

A.It increases local blood flow and granulation tissue production.

B.It reduces fluid exudate.

C.It is contraindicated in recently debrided wounds.

D.It can be useful for treating fistulas.

E.It reduces mitotic activity in the wound.

WOUND DEBRIDEMENT

7.A 47-year-old paraplegic patient presents with a grade 3 sacral pressure sore. Examination shows a 7 ? 8 cm chronic wound with eschar, fibrinous exudate, and granulation in the wound bed. In order to optimize accuracy at the time of surgical debridement, which one of the following adjuncts would be most useful intraoperatively?

A.Quantitative tissue cultures

B.Frozen section biopsy

C.Iodine brown solution

D.Methylene blue dye

E.Indocyanine green dye

COMPLICATIONS OF RADIOTHERAPY

8.A 68-year-old male has undergone postsurgical radiotherapy to the right side of the neck and mandible for management of an intraoral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).

Which one of the following would be the most useful for treatment of this clinical problem?

A.Hyperbaric oxygen

B.Transcutaneous oxygen tension

C.Stem cell therapy

D.Platelet-rich plasma

E.Tissue biopsy and cultures

SELECTION OF SKIN SUBSTITUTES

Answers

BLOOD GLUCOSE CONTROL

1.A diabetic patient is scheduled to undergo abdominal wall reconstruction. Preoperative hemoglobin A1C is 12% and random blood glucose (RBG) level is 200 mg/dL. Which one of the following is correct?

C.Postoperative infection risk is significantly increased for this patient because the blood glucose level is higher than 180 mg/dL.

In patients with or without diabetes, perioperative hyperglycemia (>180 mg/dL) carries a significantly increased risk of postoperative wound infection.1

The hemoglobin A1C is a blood test used to assess the long-term control of blood glucose. Because hemoglobin molecules remain in the blood for 3 months, it is possible to gauge glucose control over a 120-day period (not 180 days) by measuring glycosylated hemoglobin levels. A normal hemoglobin A1C is around 6%. Tight blood glucose control with intensive insulin therapy and normoglycemia (<110 mg/dL) has shown a reduction in hospital deaths in some trials.2 However, where glucose control is <7 mg/dL, there is an increased risk of death in critically ill patients.3 Although postoperative hyperglycemia and undiagnosed diabetes increase the risk of surgical site infections, elevated hemoglobin A1C does not linearly correlate.4,5

PREOPERATIVE ASSESSMENT OF NUTRITION

2.When assessing a patient’s preoperative nutritional status before major surgery by monitoring blood albumin levels, which one of the following is correct?

E.A low preoperative level is a strong predictor for postoperative mortality risk.

Albumin can provide a useful indication of nutrition. Its half-life is 20 days, and a normal value is 3.6–5.4 g/dL. A value of 2.8–3.5 g/dL suggests mild malnutrition, 2.1–2.7 g/dL suggests moderate malnutrition, and less than 2.1 g/dL indicates severe malnutrition. A large study published in 1999 involving more than 50,000 patients showed that as preoperative albumin levels decreased, early postoperative mortality and morbidity increased exponentially.1 The authors concluded that albumin was a useful predictor of outcome in major surgical procedures.

Prealbumin, rather than albumin, has a half-life of 3 days and can be assessed by the rule of fives. A normal value is greater than 15 mg/dL, mild...
