Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

Contraindications for the varicella vaccine include pregnancy, suppressed immunity, and a recent history of a blood transfusion. Recent hyperthermia and allergy to yeast or eggs do not indicate a potential difficulty with the administration of the varicella vaccine.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4

EBP has a basis in ethical principles. However, not all approaches used to improve quality are evidenced based or ethical. Evidence-based approaches would provide all necessary information such as length of time to apply heat and medication to use in the wound bed. Questioning if the patient can withstand the application of heat to the area is not appropriate.
