Frage 969

In treating closed soft-tissue injuries of the extremities, the first thing to do is to:

Apply a warm lotion to the wound.
Apply a cold dressing to the wound and elevate it.Richtige Antwort
Apply a cold dressing to the wound and hold the limb below the level of the heart.
Apply an alcohol dressing to the wound.

Erklärung

The English prompt diverges from the source editions: they scope cooling and elevation to the first hours after injury, and the accepted source response applies those measures during that period. Cold helps limit pain and swelling, while heat, alcohol dressings, or holding the limb below heart level can increase blood flow or fluid accumulation.
