Skin Assessment- Inspection
Inspect– Wide Spread Color changes
Pallor Erythema Cyanosis Jaundice Pigmentation Changes Freckles Nevus (mole) Birthmarks
– Unusual Odors Hygiene, excessive sweating, urine, musty

Danger Signs ABCDE
Abnormal Characteristics of Pigmented lesions– Asymmetry of a pigmented lesion– Border irregularity– Color variation– Diameter greater than 6mm– Elevation– Enlargement

Skin Assessment – Palpation
Use back of hands Hypothermia or Hyperthermia Moisture
– Perspiration normal on face, hands, axilla and skin folds in response to anxiety
– Diaphoresis- perfuse perspiration r/t increased metabolic rate i.e. increased heart rate, pain or fever
![Page 6: Skin , Hair & Nails, 330.Gsu.F.09](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/5466096ab4af9fdf3f8b4e1a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Skin Assessment – Palpation cont
Texture- smooth and firm Thickness- thickened areas normal on hands
and feet Edema – Fluid accumulation in the intercellular
spaces– Pitting- finger leaves imprint in area.
Graded subjectively 0+ to 4+ Evident in dependant parts of body
![Page 7: Skin , Hair & Nails, 330.Gsu.F.09](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/5466096ab4af9fdf3f8b4e1a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Skin Assessment – Palpation cont
Vascular or Bruising-– Cherry (senile) angiomas- small, smooth, slightly raised, bright red
dots that commonly occur in all adults over 30. Not a significant finding
– Bruising- ask how occurred Multiple bruises at different stages of healing can be a sign of abuse Tattoos- ask about Symptoms of Hepatitis
Hygiene- note cleanliness- free of parasites Turgor- Pinch up a large fold of skin- should return to
normal position rapidly– Decreased in dehydration or extreme wt loss.– Tenting is when skin remains pinched up

A is the correct answer because the lesion description sounds like a malignancy
B and D are incorrect as these products are not appropriate treatments
C. is incorrect as malignancies can grow quickly
