Answer to Question 1

D
A nurse should document his or her care by using rationales from a standardized nursing taxonomy such as NIC. NIC provides the standardized language for nurses to use when researching which interventions are most likely to produce positive outcomes in particular client situations.

Answer to Question 2

D
The potential for tinnitus or even transient hearing loss caused by the high-frequency noise produced by the treatment apparatus has prompted the routine use of earplugs for both patient and investigator, thus minimizing the occurrence of this adverse effect.
