Answer to Question 1

C
A strength of the nursing profession is the ability to go beyond the biomedical, psychosocial, or physical focus to care for the entire person. This approach focuses on the overall biopsychosocial well-being of the patient.

Answer to Question 2

A, C, D
When a patient is experiencing stress and verbalizing his complaints to the nurse, it would be usual for him to be anxious and angry. However, when expressed appropriately and clearly, some anger can be adaptive, because it temporarily releases the person's feelings of tension. The nurse, however, should not apologize to the patient nor minimize the anger by stating, We are all doing the best we can. What is causing stress? How long have you been dealing with stress? How have you managed stress in the past? and How long have you been dealing with this stress? are all appropriate questions asked by the nurse.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
