Nurses on one unit have started a Journal Club with a 56 participation rate of staff nurses involved during the past 10 months.
 
  The organization's annual Research Day is coming up in 4 months and the organizers have asked the Journal Club members to be involved. Only one nurse is willing to represent the group and decides the most effective way to share the Club's vision and effectively represent the group is to ask each member to:
  A. Develop a PowerPoint slide depicting one of the articles the club has discussed and the representative will create a group poster presentation to be displayed at Re-search Day.
  B. Write an abstract of some researchable clinical problem that the representative will present to the Research Day commit-tee for funding possibilities.
  C. Prepare a two-page paper explaining why the Club will not participate in Research Day planning so that the representative can tell the committee their reasons for not wanting to be involved.
  D. Attend an extra Journal Club meeting so that the representative can have the Re-search Day committee members present their rationale for mandating that the Journal Club be involved.

Question 2

Nursing is considered by the public, via the Gallup Poll, to be one of the most honest professions. This certainly constitutes feedback that reflects excellence. But to create a preferred future for nursing, it is necessary that nurses continue to:
 
  A. Be themselves
  B. Promote excellence and exercise leader-ship
  C. Do exactly what we are doing now
  D. Preserve this coveted reputation perceived by the public

Answer to Question 1

ANS: A

Feedback
A Correct because this method will have the most people sharing their work and with the least actual energy expended.
B Incorrect because it asks each individual to develop their own research project and does not really focus on the work already accomplished through the Journal Club.
C Incorrect because this is confrontational and will not generate good outcomes.
D Incorrect because mandating involvement does not speak to effective leadership and probably will not affect the nurses to want to maintain the Journal Club.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B

Feedback
A Incorrect because being themselves may not be enough for the future.
B Correct because promoting excellence and exercising leadership is most likely going to create a preferred future for nurses.
C Incorrect because preserving the status quo will not get the profession anywhere.
D Incorrect because the reputation cannot be preserved; it has to be earned.

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.

A serious new warning has been established for pregnant women against taking ACE inhibitors during pregnancy. In the study, the risk of major birth defects in children whose mothers took ACE inhibitors during the first trimester was nearly three times higher than in children whose mothers didn't take ACE inhibitors. Physicians can prescribe alternative medications for pregnant women who have symptoms of high blood pressure.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

Asthma is the most common chronic childhood disease in the world. Most children who develop asthma have symptoms before they are 5 years old.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
