Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The 2020 National Health Goals are intended to help citizens more easily understand the importance of health promotion and disease prevention and to encourage wide participation in improving health in the next decade. These goals do not focus on the early diagnosis of chronic problems, use of medications to treat disease, or reduce the cost of health care and medications.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback
A The degree of motion in the affected extremity and ability to position the
extremity are incomplete assessments of neurovascular competency.
B The length, diameter, and shape of the extremity are not assessment criteria in a
neurovascular evaluation.
C Although the amount of swelling is an important factor in assessing an
extremity, it is not a criterion for a neurovascular assessment.
D A neurovascular evaluation includes assessing skin color and temperature, ability
to move the affected extremity, degree of sensation experienced, and speed of
capillary refill in the extremity.
