Answer to Question 1

B
Plans are more effective when the patient is involved in the process. The care plan is not limited in terms of the number of interventions, nor do they have to be easy. The nursing diagnoses are not evaluated; the patient's progress toward the outcome is.

Answer to Question 2

B
The child with LTB should be placed in the mist tent with 30 oxygen. Restlessness is caused by poor oxygenation.
