Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, D
The documentation of the initiation of an incident report should not be included in the nurse's notes. Nurse's notes are part of the legal medical record; the incident report is not. To note that an incident report was initiated is a red flag that a problem has occurred.

Answer to Question 2

A
Fibrin in the clot begins to hold the wound together.
