Answer to Question 1
B
The nurse applies equipment necessary for patient monitoring, including blood pressure cuff and oxygen saturation probe. Mild soap is used to cleanse the areas designated for electrode placement, but shaving the areas and shampooing the hair are not required. Results of a 12-lead ECG, which should be performed well before the patient gets to the treatment area, should have been reviewed to determine risks associated with anesthesia. The consent form should be signed earlier, and there is no need to sign another consent form at this time.
Answer to Question 2
A
Symbolic interactionism suggests that the nurse learn to walk in the shoes of family members by asking questions that elicit a description of their situation. The correct option is such a question. While inquiring about the situation at home since the patient's discharge is partially correct because it seeks to elicit the family's view, it is a closed-ended question and is narrower in scope. The remaining options are inappropriate because they are factual and do not increase understanding of the lived experience of family members.
