Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

The most important task for the nurse is to prevent bleeding after the biopsy. Holding pressure on the wound for 5 minutes is effective. Dealing with the specimen is accomplished by a third party or after the nurse stabilizes the client. An explanation of the test is performed before the procedure is begun. Cleaning the area is completed after the client is stable and the specimen is sent to the laboratory.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C

Glucosamine sulfate is a dietary supplement. No prescription is needed to obtain it. Alternative therapies do not require the approval of the FDA to be sold. The remaining statements are correct.
