Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Controlled-breath ventilation breathes for the client, forcing a breath at set time intervals. Volume ventilation delivers a consistent, preset volume of air with each breath, ensuring adequate breathing. Pressure ventilation pushes air into the lungs until a preset pressure is achieved. Assisted-breath ventilation helps support clients who are inadequately breathing on their own.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
A nurse who has any instincts of danger should avoid going on a visit to the client's home. The nurse should call the client's home and inform the client and the family caregivers about not visiting them that day. A nurse has the right to maintain his or her own safety and should not ignore instincts about any danger. The nurse does not have to inform a physician of any instincts and take assistance from the physician or from any colleagues during home visits. The nurse can visit the client the next day.
