Answer to Question 1

3
Treatment of sickle-cell disease with prophylactic antibiotic therapy has resulted in an increase in life expectancy. Other treatments include fluid therapy, oxygen, pain management, blood transfusions, and medications. Low-fat diet, moderate exercise, and vitamin D therapy are not interventions associated with the treatment of sickle-cell anemia.

Answer to Question 2

2, 3
The four domains of nursing are: 1) clinical practice, 2) education, 3) administration, and 4) research. When the nurse plans care for a client, the domain being implemented is clinical practice. When reviewing appropriate educational materials to use for discharge instructions, the domain being implemented is education. The nurse is not utilizing the domains of research or administration. Nursing process and literature are not domains of nursing.
