Answer to Question 1

1, 3, 5, 6
The four principles that support the ethical decision-making process regarding the treatment of a genetic disorder are: 1) autonomy, 2) beneficence, 3) nonmaleficence, and 4) justice. Timeliness and cost-effectiveness are not ethical principles.

Answer to Question 2

2
The core concept of the ACE Star Model is knowledge transformation. Knowledge transformation is the conversion of research findings to have an impact on health outcomes by way of evidence-based care. Knowledge transformation is not a method to reduce length of stay, reduce the cost of care, or increase the number of patients with health insurance.
