Answer to Question 1

Ans: C

Protocols (written plans that detail the nursing activities to be executed in specific situations) are nurse-initiated interventions. They expand the scope of nursing practice in certain clearly defined situations.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B

The researchers involved in the development of NICs are also committed to developing a classification of client outcomes for nursing interventions, called Nursing Outcomes Classifications (NOCs). This research aims to identify, label, validate, and classify nursing-sensitive client outcomes and indicators, evaluate the validity and usefulness of the classification in clinical field-testing, and define and test measurement procedures for the outcomes and indicators.
