Answer to Question 1

b

a. Incorrect: The nurse has not promoted a scenario in which nurses will continue to complain about all of the equipment they would like to see improved. She has demonstrated ethical practice because she has reported a situation in which patient care could be compromised if the faulty equipment is not replaced.
b. Correct: The nurse manager has demonstrated ethical practice in the workplace.
c. Incorrect: The nurse has promoted ethical behaviour to ensure patient safety.
d. Incorrect: The nurse has promoted ethical behaviour to ensure patient safety. In this case, the request may impact the capital budget, but that is not what the nurse is promoting directly.

Answer to Question 2

B, E, F

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
