Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Controlled-breath ventilation breathes for the client, forcing a breath at set time intervals. Volume ventilation delivers a consistent, preset volume of air with each breath, ensuring adequate breathing. Pressure ventilation pushes air into the lungs until a preset pressure is achieved. Assisted-breath ventilation helps support clients who are inadequately breathing on their own.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
A nurse who has any instincts of danger should avoid going on a visit to the client's home. The nurse should call the client's home and inform the client and the family caregivers about not visiting them that day. A nurse has the right to maintain his or her own safety and should not ignore instincts about any danger. The nurse does not have to inform a physician of any instincts and take assistance from the physician or from any colleagues during home visits. The nurse can visit the client the next day.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. 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).
