Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
According to the ANA Standards of Professional Performance (standard 9) concerning evidence-based practice, there are two main criteria: The registered nurse uses current evidence-based nursing knowledge, including research findings, to guide practice decisions, critically analyzes evidence-based practice and research findings for application to practice, participates in the development of evidence-based practice through research activities, and shares research activities and/or findings with peers and others. Competencies related to research are stated by QSEN under its educational competencies and are not part of the ANA standards.

Answer to Question 2

4, 2, 1, 3
In Maslow's hierarchy, physiological needs and safety are the highest priority. Sleep is a basic physiological need. Infection can threaten physical health. In this question, infection is not present; therefore, there is only a risk for it. Sleep Deprivation is an immediate problem that affects general physical, mental, and emotional health. Neither Anxiety nor Disturbed Body image is a physiological or safety need. Anxiety is a more immediate need than is Disturbed Body Image; therefore, it probably deserves a higher ranking. Remind students that the ranking would depend on the severity of each problem, which is not known by the labels alone.
