Answer to Question 1

1, 2, 4, 5, 6
By checking the client's armband, the nurse is implementing the right client. By documenting the client's response, the nurse is implementing right documentation. By checking the MAR with the medication for the dosage, the nurse is implementing right dose. By checking the physician's order for the prescribed route, the nurse is implementing right route. By providing the morning insulin dose before breakfast, the nurse is implementing right time. Identifying the client's history of hypertension is not an action to support one of the rights of medication administration.

Answer to Question 2

3
Smoking cessation halts the disease progress, but continuation of smoking exacerbates the progression of the disease. Buerger's disease is a rare disorder. It is more common in men than women. It is more common in Asians and rare among African Americans.
