Matching Wound Care Agents with Examples

This question requires matching agents from List-I with their corresponding examples or names in List-II. Proper identification of each agent type is key.

A. Polymeric Film Agent Match

Polymeric films are synthetic materials used as semi-permeable membranes for wound dressings. Opsite tegaderm is a common example of such a transparent polyurethane film dressing.

Therefore, A matches with 3.

B. Debriding Agent Match

Debriding agents help remove dead or damaged tissue from wounds. While various types exist (enzymatic, autolytic, mechanical), the provided options link Benzoyl benzoic acid to this category in the context of this question.

Therefore, B matches with 1.

C. Biological Membrane Agent Match

Biological membranes are tissues derived from living organisms used for wound coverage or tissue repair. Porcine skin amnion is an example of such a biological membrane derived from pig amniotic tissue.

Therefore, C matches with 4.

D. Enzymatic Agent Match

Enzymatic agents utilize enzymes to break down specific substances, often proteins or fibrin, aiding in wound healing or other medical applications. Vandase streptokinase is an enzyme (or enzyme-derived) used medically, often for breaking down blood clots (thrombolysis), which involves enzymatic activity.

Therefore, D matches with 2.

Final Match Selection

Combining the matches:

• A - 3 (Polymeric film - Opsite tegaderm)
• B - 1 (Debriding agent - Benzoyl benzoic acid)
• C - 4 (Biological membrane - Porcine skin amnion)
• D - 2 (Enzymatic agent - Vandase streptokinase)

This corresponds to the option A-3, B-1, C-4, D-2.
