Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1, 3, 4, 5

The nurse must consider the significance of the research problem and the appropriateness of the study to the problem, and should also determine whether the rights of human subjects were protected during the study. The nurse should consider whether the findings from the study are generalizable or are limited to a specific study group. The nurse must also consider the presentation of the research. The overall cost of the study is not significant.

Correct Answer: 1, 5, 2, 4, 3

The steps in the Lean model include: identify value; determine the value stream; improve flow to create an efficient process; test the new process; and revise and perfect the process.
