Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale 1: Using your own words and reviewing your notes regularly will assist you in remembering the information.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: Aspirin delays the healing process, so the nurse monitors healing and assesses for complications. Pneumonia and joint contractures are not part of wound monitoring. Pain at the wound site is not increased due to arthritis.
