Answer to Question 1

C, D, E
Neuropathic pain is best relieved by antidepressants, anti-inflammatory agents, and anticonvul-sants. Analgesics and opioids generally do not alleviate neuropathic pain.

The nursing process is based on the belief that all people have worth and dignity.

Holistic care approach can support the patient to meet basic needs.
