Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: CreutzfeldtJakob disease is an infectious, transmissible degenerative dementia affecting the cerebral cortex through cell destruction and overgrowth. A very rapid onset and involuntary movements mark it. The infection is presumed to be caused by a prion, a small proteinaceous particle that is resistant to treatment and sterilization procedures.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale: Clients who are hospitalized for depression will be disinterested in a nurseclient relationship. It is easy for the nurse to internalize the client's mood if the nurse is not self-aware. Depressed clients are usually not open to working on their problems. They may feel hopeless and helpless. Depressed clients may not show improvement within 24 hours of hospitalization. Most hospitalized clients with depression are not appreciative of a daily one-to-one session because they desire to isolate and to be left alone.
