A patient is in the late stages of liver failure with cirrhosis and progressive, irreversible damage. What should the nurse explain to the family?
◦ Abstinence from alcohol may decrease further liver cell injury and improve portal hypertension.
◦ The liver is the only organ affected so that the patient and family need not worry about other body systems.
◦ Liver transplantation is the only feasible treatment.
◦ If the patient does not have any variceal hemorrhages, he will probably live for years.

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.
