Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The nurse should group the information about instances of unprotected sex of the client with the client's active sexual life to form a data cluster because both pieces of information are similar and have a possible connection with the client's current condition. Instances of blood transfusions, vaccinations, or the client's dietary habits are not connected to the client's sex life, and do not form a data cluster.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Decrease pH; decrease bicarbonate indicates metabolic acidosis. Decrease pH; increase carbon dioxide is respiratory acidosis. Increase pH; increase bicarbonate is metabolic alkalosis. Increase pH; decrease carbon dioxide is respiratory alkalosis.
