Answer to Question 1

B
Recommendations can be located at the National Guideline Clearinghouse. Evidence summaries are located at the Cochrane Database. Integration can be located at the AHRQ Health Care Innovations Exchange. Evaluation can be located at the National Quality Measures Clearinghouse.

Answer to Question 2

D
Of the diagnostic tests listed, the one that is considered invasive is the angiography. An angiography allows the visualization of the vascular structures through the use of fluoroscopy with a contrast medium. It is performed in radiology or diagnostic studies departments. The test reveals the blood flow to the heart, lungs, brain, kidneys, and lower extremities.
