Answer to Question 1

A
Nursing diagnosis is defined in the Roy Adaptation Model as a judgment process resulting in a statement conveying the person's adaptation status.

Answer to Question 2

3. Semi-Fowler's position

Rationale:
The client with prolonged vomiting will likely have severe metabolic alkalosis with reduced oxygenation. The semi-Fowler's position will facilitate alveolar ventilation with improved oxygenation. Side-lying and prone positions do not facilitate needed lung expansion.
