Answer to Question 1

C
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) was enacted to safeguard medical
information. Some previous methods for patient care organization fall under what is now considered to
be HIPAA violations because they provide a means for others to access private information about
patients' care. Examples of HIPAA violation include the use of whiteboards to organize shift
assignments and nursing organizational charts (used to organize patient treatments, diagnoses, etc.). If
used, they must be destroyed when they are no longer needed.

Answer to Question 2

C
A variable is a characteristic or attribute of a person that varies within the population under study such
as body temperature. In a randomized controlled trial, an experimental group receives a study
intervention and the control group may receive a placebo. A control group consists of subjects in an
experiment who do not receive the experimental treatment and whose performance provides a baseline
against which the effects of the treatment can be measured.
