Answer to Question 1

D
Nursing outcome databases are critical for two reasons: (1) nurses must be able to measure and document how nurses influence patient outcomes; and (2) the study of nursing-sensitive out-comes will allow comparison between interventional strategies and advance the science of nurs-ing care delivery (Iowa Intervention Project, 1997).
