Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
First-level priority problems are those that are emergent, life threatening, and immediate (e.g., establishing an airway, supporting breathing, maintaining circulation, monitoring abnormal vital signs)

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
EBP is a systematic approach to practice that emphasizes the use of best evidence in combination with the clinician's experience, as well as patient preferences and values, when making decisions about care and treatment. EBP is more than simply using the best practice techniques to treat patients, and questioning tradition is important when no compelling and supportive research evidence exists.
