Answer to Question 1

ANS: T
The facility's risk management tracks issues of safety. The recommendations that arise from the data help guide personnel to correct practices. Patients and caregivers are never free from risk, but risks can be minimized through safe practice.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
No magnetic metal object can be used within the MRI environment. Instrument tables, IV poles, oxygen tanks, instrumentation, and OR furniture cannot be composed of any magnetic substance. Titanium or plastic is commonly used in this environment because it is inert and nonmagnetic.
