Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
If the situation seems critical, the nurse should act accordingly. After a decision is made, the nurse should follow through, and make sure the situation is safely resolved. Then, the nurse should evaluate the situation as it evolves, keeping in mind that revisions may need to be made continuously. After a crisis, such as a code, the nurse should debrief the entire team to allow venting of feelings and to determine the best action to take in the event of another similar emergency.

Answer to Question 2

A

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
