Answer to Question 1

A
According to McCloskey (1989), two models for costing out nursing services have been identi-fied. One model is based on total nursing cost per diagnosis-related group, and one model is based on the initiation of nursing services by medical and nursing diagnoses.

Answer to Question 2

C
Productivity measurement is complex for the following reasons: (1) measuring nursing care out-comes is difficult and controversial; (2) the relationships between care processes and nursing outcomes are not well understood; and (3) the most efficient combination of resources for per-forming care processes is not known (Edwardson, 1989).

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs.

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).
