Nursing assessment indicates that a long-term care resident has limited use of the right side of his body, but is coherent at intervals. If this patient develops decubiti, which factor might the nurse consider to be a mitigating factor for the facility's plea to limit liability?
◦ The resident is unable to obtain proper nutrition because of his refusal to eat.
◦ The resident must be confined to bed for prolonged periods of time because of his condition.
◦ Nursing notes reveal that the patient is repositioned frequently, but somehow manages to return to the back-lying position.
◦ Understaffing prevents the nurses from performing necessary passive range of motion exercises to the patient's affected side.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
