Answer to Question 1

B
According to Zuzelo's (2007) research, the high frequency event that generated distress among nurses involved following orders for unnecessary diagnostic tests and therapies. Events considered highly distressing but occurring on an infrequent basis were: working with unsafe staffing levels, carrying out family preferences for client care although nurses disagreed with the plan, and providing life support for clients due to family preferences, although the clients had poor prognoses.

Answer to Question 2

A

Feedback
A Petechiae, or pinpoint hemorrhagic areas, acquired during birth may extend over the upper portion of the trunk and face. These lesions are benign if they disap-pear within 2 days of birth and no new lesions appear.
B Petechiae may result from decreased platelet formation.
C In this situation the presence of petechiae is most likely a soft-tissue injury re-sulting from the nuchal cord at birth. Unless they do not dissipate in 2 days, there is no reason to alarm the family.
D Petechiae usually occur with a breech presentation vaginal birth.

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.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
