Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Kbler-Ross' stages of dying are still generally accepted today. These stages are: Denial and isolation (This isn't happening to me). Anger and rage (Why is this happening to me?). Bargaining and developing awareness (I promise I will be a better person if only . . .). Depression (I don't care anymore.). Acceptance and peace (I'm ready for whatever happens.). Detachment (withdrawal from life).

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Mechanical ventilation is necessary when a client is unable to achieve adequate tissue oxygenation or to expire adequate amounts of carbon dioxide with use of supplemental oxygen. A mechanical ventilator is a machine that forces supplemental oxygen, air, or both into the lungs. The ventilator is connected to the client via an ET or a tracheostomy tube. Often, a respiratory therapist maintains or adjusts the settings per medical orders.
