Answer to Question 1

Answer: B

To avoid making a premature decision, the nurse plans to investigate all aspects of the dilemma before deciding. Overconfidence can lead to poor decision making. Reading the agency policy regarding the matter addresses only one aspect of the situation. Examining the conflicts surrounding the issue is only one aspect of the situation to consider.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A

Translational research is emerging as a systematic approach of converting research knowledge into applications of health care for improved client outcomes. When scientific evidence is translated into practical applications, human health can be improved. Information can flow back and forth between researchers and clinicians to further investigate diseases and human response to them.
