Answer to Question 1

4. Blood pressure of 142/92

Rationale:
A pregnant client's blood pressure should not be greater than 140/90, and if it is elevated, it could be a sign of gestational hypertension or preeclampsia. The pregnant client's heart and respiratory rates will increase slightly as a result of an increased circulatory volume and a decrease in intrathoracic space. Weight gain should average a pound per week in the second and third trimesters.

Answer to Question 2

2. Nursing research analyzes events and experiences..

Rationale:
The student who states that nursing research analyzes events and experiences understands what nursing research is. Nursing research includes the study of nurses themselves. Research also includes the educational aspects of nursing. Nursing research impacts the profession by adding knowledge and changing nursing practice.
